Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of river management technology, specifically a method for determining the threshold of tidal water intake and replenishment in tidal rivers. Background Technology
[0002] Utilizing tidal resources to introduce relatively high-quality offshore seawater is one of the important ways to solve the water environment problems of coastal tidal rivers. Through engineering measures such as dredging, restoring aquaculture areas to tidal flats, and converting farmland back to tidal flats, the volume of tidal river channels can be increased, enhancing the river's tidal capacity and increasing tidal volume and tidal dynamics. This can effectively improve the dilution, self-purification, and circulation capabilities of tidal river water. However, increased tidal volume and enhanced tidal dynamics can also lead to saltwater intrusion, which directly affects the quality of groundwater resources and will impact the drinking water supply for residents in some coastal areas. Simultaneously, saltwater intrusion can also lead to soil salinization, reducing irrigated and arable land areas and affecting agricultural production. Therefore, determining a scientifically reasonable tidal volume is an important technical basis for engineering measures in tidal river management and a key technical parameter for utilizing tidal resources to improve the water environment of tidal rivers.
[0003] Based on this, the present invention designs a method for determining the threshold of tidal water intake and replenishment in tidal channels to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a method for determining the threshold of tidal water intake in tidal channels, in order to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that increasing the tidal intake of tidal channels can effectively improve the dilution, self-purification and circulation capacity of tidal channel water, but the increase in tidal intake will lead to saltwater intrusion, affecting the safety of water for production and daily life.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a method for determining the threshold of tidal water intake and replenishment in tidal channels, comprising the following steps:
[0006] 1) Conduct basic data collection and analysis of river channels and offshore waters. The collected basic data includes monitoring data on river channel and offshore waters hydrology, topography, water quality, pollutants, salinity, etc., and analyzes characteristic river flow, characteristic offshore tide level, river water quality status and exceeding indicators, etc.
[0007] 2) Determine the river control sections and water quality improvement targets, salinity control targets. Control sections should preferably be located near the river mouth; the water quality exceedance index at the river control section is A, with a concentration of C1; the concentration of the offshore seawater quality index A is C2; the target concentration for river water quality improvement is C3, where C1 < C3 ≤ C2; the salinity control target at the river control section is Pmax, which is the maximum salinity allowed at that section.
[0008] 3) Establish a mathematical model for the hydrodynamic and water quality of tidal channels, simulate and calculate the hydrodynamic and water quality results under different engineering treatment schemes, and statistically analyze the tidal volume Q, water quality concentration C, and salinity P at the control sections of the river under different treatment schemes. The upper boundary of the mathematical model is the flow rate, which should preferably be the multi-year average flow rate of the river, and the lower boundary is the tidal level process, which should preferably be the multi-year average high tide level process. At least three engineering treatment schemes should be used to obtain as many hydrodynamic and water quality calculation results as possible. The tidal volume statistics are based on a high tide phase, and the water quality concentration and salinity statistics are based on the maximum values within the same period.
[0009] 4) Based on the mathematical models calculated under different governance schemes, the tidal volume Q, water quality concentration C, and salinity P of the river control section are used to establish the relationship between water quality concentration C and tidal volume Q, and between salinity P and tidal volume Q. Regression analysis is then performed, and a univariate polynomial equation is recommended for fitting.
[0010] 5) Based on the relationship curve between salinity P and tidal volume Q at the river control section, and in conjunction with the maximum salinity that can be achieved at the section, determine the maximum allowable tidal volume Qmax; based on the relationship curve between water quality concentration C and tidal volume Q at the river control section, and in conjunction with the target concentration C3 for water quality improvement at the section, determine the minimum tidal volume Qmin that can achieve the target.
[0011] 6) Compare and analyze the maximum tidal volume Qmax and the minimum tidal volume Qmin, and determine the tidal volume threshold Qs with priority given to salinity control. When Qmax > Qmin, the tidal volume threshold is Qmin ≤ Qs < Qmax; when Qmax ≤ Qmin, the tidal volume threshold is Qs ≤ Qmax.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: The present invention, based on the proposed method for determining the threshold of tidal water intake for tidal channel replenishment, can determine the reasonable tidal intake when using tidal resources to improve the water environment of tidal channels, providing key technical support for determining the engineering management tasks and scale of tidal channels, and also avoiding the problem of saltwater intrusion affecting the safety of production and domestic water use due to increased tidal intake.

Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0017] Please see Figure 1 This invention, taking the Longjiang River in Fuqing as an example, provides a method for determining the threshold of tidal water intake and replenishment in tidal channels:
[0018] (1) Conduct basic data collection and analysis of the Longjiang River channel and its offshore waters in Fuqing. The collected basic data includes monitoring data on the hydrology, topography, water quality, pollutants, and salinity of the Longjiang River channel and Fuqing Bay. For example, data on the Longjiang River channel in Fuqing... Figure 1 As shown, the average annual flow rate of the Longjiang River in Fuqing is 18.83 m³ / h. 3 The high tide process in the open sea is shown in Table 1. The water quality exceeding the standard in the river is NH3-N.

[0020]
[0021]
[0022] (2) Determine the control sections of the Fuqing Longjiang River and the targets for water quality improvement and salinity control. The control sections of the Fuqing Longjiang River should preferably be located near the river mouth, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the water quality exceeding standard at the Longjiang River control section in Fuqing is NH3-N with a concentration of 2.3 mg / L, while the concentration of NH3-N in the outer sea is 1.5 mg / L. The target concentration for improving river water quality is 2.0 mg / L, and the salinity control target at the river control section is 2 PSU, which is the maximum salinity allowed at this section.
[0023] (3) Establish a mathematical model of hydrodynamics and water quality in the Longjiang River channel in Fuqing, simulate and calculate the hydrodynamic and water quality results under different engineering treatment schemes, and statistically analyze the tidal volume Q, water quality concentration C, and salinity P at the control sections of the river channel under different treatment schemes. The simulation range of the mathematical model is as follows: Figure 1 As shown, the upper boundary is the South Gate, with a flow rate of 18.83 m³ / s, and the lower boundary is the multi-year average high tide level process, as shown in Table 1. The engineering treatment schemes include Scheme 1, Scheme 2, and Scheme 3. Table 2 shows the tidal volume Q, water quality concentration C, and salinity P at the river control sections under different treatment schemes.

[0025] Operating conditions <![CDATA[Inflow volume / 10,000 m 3 > <![CDATA[NH3-N / mg / L]]> Salinity / PSU status quo 499 2.30 0.90 Option 1 549 2.11 1.28 Option 2 604 1.98 2.12 Option 3 664 1.91 3.54
[0026] (4) Based on the mathematical models calculated for different governance schemes, the tidal volume Q, water quality concentration C, and salinity P at the river control section are used to establish the relationships between water quality concentration C and tidal volume Q, and between salinity P and tidal volume Q. Regression analysis is then performed, preferably using a univariate quadratic equation for fitting. The relationship between water quality concentration C and tidal volume Q is fitted using a univariate quadratic regression equation: Q = 929.78C² - 4331.6C + 5544.2, R² 2 =0.9915; The relationship between salinity P and tidal volume Q was fitted using a quadratic regression equation: Q = -17.374P² + 137.79P + 393.49, R² 2 =0.9941.
[0027] (5) Based on the relationship curve between salinity P and tidal volume Q at the river control section, the maximum allowable salinity at the control section is 2 PSU. Therefore, the maximum allowable tidal volume Qmax = -17.374 * 2.02 + 137.79 * 2.0 + 393.49 = 5,995,700 m³ 3 Based on the relationship curve between water quality concentration C and tidal volume Q at the river control section, and combined with the target water quality improvement concentration C3 at this section, the minimum tidal volume Qmin required to achieve this target is determined to be: Qmin = 929.78 * 2.02 - 4331.6 * 2.0 + 5544.2 = 6,001,200 m³. 3 .
[0028] (6) Compare and analyze the maximum tidal volume Qmax and the minimum tidal volume Qmin, and determine the tidal volume threshold Qs with priority given to salinity control. Qmax = 5,995,700 m³ 3 <Qmin=6.0012 million m 3 Therefore, the tidal volume threshold of the Longjiang River in Fuqing is Qs≤Qmax=5,995,700 m³. 3 .
