[0048] In order to better understand the technical solutions of the present application, the technical solutions of the present application will be described in detail below in combination with the drawings of the specification and specific embodiments.

[0049] Reference Figure 1 The figure is an exemplary flowchart of a water level monitoring method 100 according to some embodiments of the present application, which mainly includes the following steps:

[0050] In step 101, a water level sensor network is arranged in a target wetland, and the water level at different monitoring points of the target wetland is monitored based on the water level sensor network to obtain water level data of each monitoring point.

[0051] It should be noted that, first, in the area with deep water and smooth flow, the pressure type water level sensor can measure the water level more accurately; while in the shallow water area or the place with more floating objects, the ultrasonic sensor is more advantageous because it is not easily disturbed by debris, thereby determining the type of sensor, second, according to the characteristics of the topography and geomorphology of the wetland, the water distribution is divided into different regional layers, including deep water area, shoal area, river branch area, then the spatial sampling algorithm (such as stratified random sampling) is used to randomly determine the monitoring point position in each regional layer according to a certain sampling ratio, to ensure that the water level changes in different regions of the wetland can be comprehensively and effectively monitored, thereby completing the arrangement of the water level sensor in the target wetland, and each monitoring point can monitor a range of ten meters.

[0052] In a specific implementation, after the water level sensor network is arranged in the target wetland, the water level sensor network monitors the water level at different monitoring points in the target wetland in a month, records the water level monitored at early (6 o'clock), noon (12 o'clock), and evening (18 o'clock) in a day, and takes the set of all water levels recorded at each monitoring point as the water level data of the corresponding monitoring point. In other embodiments, other ways of monitoring can also be used, which are not limited here.

[0053] It should be noted that the water level in the water level data in the present application represents the height of the free water surface at the monitoring point relative to the fixed reference position, and the fixed reference position represents the position where the height of the free water surface in the target wetland is 0. In the present embodiment, the lowest elevation position of the target wetland is set as the fixed reference position. In other embodiments, other positions can also be set as the fixed reference position, which is not limited here.

[0054] In step 102, the difference characteristics of the water level in each water level data are determined, and the transition zone between the wetland and the land in the target wetland is analyzed according to all the difference characteristics to obtain the moving trend of the transition zone.

[0055] In some embodiments, the determination of the difference characteristics of the water level in each water level data can be implemented by the following steps:

[0056] A water level data is selected as a selected water level data, and the selected water level data is converted into a water level sequence;

[0057] The difference characteristics of the water level in the selected water level data are determined according to the water level sequence;

[0058] The difference characteristics of the water level in the remaining water level data are continuously determined.

[0059] In a specific implementation, first, all the water levels in the selected water level data are arranged in the order of the collection time, and the sequence obtained by the arrangement is taken as the water level sequence. Then, the difference values between each group of adjacent water levels in the water level sequence are calculated, and all the difference values obtained by the calculation are taken as the difference characteristics of the water level in the selected water level data. In other embodiments, other ways of determination can also be used, which are not limited here.

[0060] It should be noted that the difference characteristics in the present application represent the characteristics of the difference degree of the water level at the monitoring point changing with time, which can be used for analyzing the water level change in the target wetland.

[0061] In some embodiments, the analysis of the transition zone between the wetland and the land in the target wetland according to all the difference characteristics to obtain the moving trend of the transition zone can be implemented by the following steps:

[0062] The fluctuation interval of the transition zone between the wetland and the land in the target wetland is determined according to all the difference characteristics.

[0063] predict the moving trend of the transition zone based on the fluctuation interval of the transition zone.

[0064] It should be noted that in the target wetland, the transition zone between the wetland and the land is a dynamic area, and the change of its position is closely related to the water level change. The difference in water level directly reflects the distribution and movement of the water body in the wetland. When the water level in a certain area rises, the water body expands to the land side, and the transition zone moves to the land. Conversely, when the water level drops, the transition zone shrinks to the interior of the wetland. Therefore, by analyzing the difference in water level, key information about the change of the position of the transition zone can be obtained.

[0065] In a specific implementation, the fluctuation interval of the transition zone between the wetland and the land in the target wetland can be determined according to all the difference characteristics in the following manner: calculating the mean of all the difference values in each difference characteristic, arranging all the means in ascending order, taking the sequence obtained by the arrangement as a difference value sequence, extracting all the difference values that exceed 1.5 times the interquartile range from the front to the back in the difference value sequence by the interquartile range rule, and taking the monitoring range of the two monitoring points corresponding to each extracted difference value as the fluctuation interval of the transition zone between the wetland and the land in the target wetland. The fluctuation interval of the transition zone between the wetland and the land in the target wetland represents the interval of the fluctuation degree of the transition zone between the wetland and the land in the target wetland, and can be used to analyze the trend of the transition zone between the wetland and the land in the target wetland. In other embodiments, other methods can also be used to determine the fluctuation interval of the transition zone between the wetland and the land in the target wetland, which is not limited here.

[0066] In a specific implementation, the moving trend of the transition zone can be predicted based on the fluctuation interval of the transition zone in the following manner: obtaining historical water level data in the fluctuation interval of the transition zone, arranging the historical water level data in time sequence to obtain a historical water level sequence, constructing a moving trend model of the transition zone based on a machine learning model, optimizing the moving trend model by a cross-validation method, inputting the historical water level sequence into the moving trend model, and inferring the moving trend of the transition zone by the moving trend model. In other embodiments, other methods can also be used to determine the moving trend of the transition zone, which is not limited here.

[0067] It should be noted that the moving trend in the present application represents the trend of the movement of the transition zone between the wetland and the land in the target wetland, and can be used to predict the transition zone between the wetland and the land in the target wetland, so as to take appropriate measures in advance.

[0068] In step 103, the correlation between the water levels of each adjacent monitoring point is determined, the confluence characteristics of the water body in the flow process in the target wetland are determined based on all the correlation and the elevation characteristics of each monitoring point in the target wetland, and the contraction gradient of the water flow in the drainage process of the target wetland is determined according to the confluence characteristics and the water potential direction of the target wetland.

[0069] In some embodiments, the determining of the correlation degree of water levels between each adjacent monitoring point can be achieved by the following steps:

[0070] selecting one adjacent monitoring point as a selected adjacent monitoring point, and determining water level linkage information between the selected adjacent monitoring points;

[0071] determining the correlation degree of water levels between the selected adjacent monitoring points according to the water level linkage information;

[0072] continuing to determine the correlation degree of water levels between the remaining adjacent monitoring points.

[0073] In a specific implementation, the water level linkage information between the selected adjacent monitoring points can be determined by the following method: calculating the water level change amount of the selected adjacent monitoring points in the same time interval, and then using a cross-correlation function (such as Cross-Correlation Function) to calculate the correlation coefficient of the water level change of two groups of data under different time delays, and taking the set of all water level change amounts and all correlation coefficients as the water level linkage information between the selected adjacent monitoring points. For example, for the water level data of two adjacent monitoring points A and B, the correlation of the water level change amount of point A at time t and the water level change amount of point B at time t+τ is calculated, τ is the time delay, and the correlation coefficient under different τ values is obtained. The water level linkage information represents information about the correlation of water levels between adjacent monitoring points in the target wetland. In other embodiments, other methods can be used to determine the water level linkage information, which is not limited here.

[0074] In a specific implementation, the correlation degree of water levels between the selected adjacent monitoring points can be determined according to the water level linkage information by the following method: the Pearson correlation coefficient can be used to calculate the water level change correlation degree between the selected adjacent monitoring points by combining all water level change amounts in the water level linkage information, and then the sum of the mean value of all correlation coefficients in the water level linkage information and the water level change correlation degree is taken as the correlation degree of water levels between the selected adjacent monitoring points. In other embodiments, other methods can be used to determine the correlation degree of water levels between the selected adjacent monitoring points, which is not limited here.

[0075] It should be noted that the correlation degree in this application represents a parameter value of the correlation degree of water levels between adjacent monitoring points, which can be used to analyze the water level change in the target wetland.

[0076] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 2 The figure is an exemplary flow chart for determining the confluence feature in some embodiments of the application. In this embodiment, the determination of the confluence feature of the water body in the target wetland during the flow process can be achieved by the following steps based on all the correlation degrees and the elevation features of each monitoring point in the target wetland:

[0077] Firstly, in step 1031, the elevation features of each monitoring point in the target wetland are determined;

[0078] Secondly, in step 1032, a plurality of confluence paths in the target wetland are determined according to the elevation features and all the correlation degrees;

[0079] Finally, in step 1033, the confluence features of the water bodies in the target wetland in the flowing process are determined through all the confluence paths.

[0080] It should be noted that the correlation degree of the water levels of adjacent monitoring points quantifies the synchronism of the water body movement, a high correlation degree indicates that there is a direct hydraulic connection (such as free flow) between the two monitoring points, and a low correlation degree indicates that there may be an obstruction (such as vegetation obstruction or terrain uplift) between the two monitoring points, and the elevation feature is directly related to the flow condition of the water flow, therefore, the confluence of the water bodies in the target wetland in the flowing process can be analyzed through all the correlation degrees and the elevation features of each monitoring point in the target wetland.

[0081] In a specific implementation, the elevation features of each monitoring point in the target wetland can be determined by using the following method, that is, based on the digital elevation model (DEM) technology of remote sensing images, the elevation and terrain slope of each monitoring point in the target wetland are obtained, and the elevation and terrain slope of each monitoring point are taken as the elevation features of the corresponding monitoring point, wherein the elevation features represent the characteristics of the elevation of the monitoring point.

[0082] Among them, all the correlation degrees are combined with all the elevation features, the area with a high correlation degree is taken as a potential water flow path, the high and low terrain in the elevation features is used to determine the water flow direction, and the confluence path is determined in this way, in a specific implementation, the plurality of confluence paths in the target wetland are determined according to the elevation features and all the correlation degrees can be realized by using the following method, that is, starting from each monitoring point, the classical algorithm of the shortest path (such as A* algorithm) is combined with all the correlation degrees and all the elevation features to find each path in the target wetland that is low and has a high correlation degree, and each path is taken as a confluence path, for example, in a certain monitoring point, the adjacent monitoring point with a low elevation and a high correlation degree is preferentially selected as the next node, and a plurality of complete confluence paths are found by continuously iterating, in other embodiments, other ways can also be used for determination, which are not limited here.

[0083] In a specific implementation, the determination of the confluence characteristics of the water in the target wetland during the flow process through all the confluence paths can be achieved by the following method: the length and coverage area of each confluence path are calculated based on the spatial analysis function of the geographic information system software, the water flow velocity on different confluence paths is calculated based on the principle of hydraulics, and the set of the length, coverage area and water flow velocity of each confluence path is taken as the confluence characteristics of the water in the target wetland during the flow process. In other embodiments, the determination can also be achieved by other methods, which are not limited here.

[0084] It should be noted that the confluence characteristics in the present application represent the characteristics of the confluence of the water in the target wetland during the flow process, which can be used to analyze the water condition in the target wetland, so as to manage the target wetland accordingly.

[0085] In some embodiments, the determination of the contraction gradient of the water flow in the target wetland during the drainage process according to the confluence characteristics and the water potential direction of the target wetland can be achieved by the following steps:

[0086] determining the water potential direction of the target wetland;

[0087] determining the water flow buffer zone of the target wetland during the drainage process according to the confluence characteristics and the water potential direction;

[0088] obtaining a preset water flow convergence zone of the target wetland;

[0089] determining the contraction gradient of the water flow in the target wetland during the drainage process according to the water flow buffer zone and the preset water flow convergence zone.

[0090] It should be noted that the analysis of the combination of the confluence characteristics and the water potential direction indicates the water flow concentration area in the confluence characteristics, and the water flow direction on the confluence path is limited by the water potential direction. Under the guidance of the water potential direction, the water flow contraction area during the drainage process can be determined along the confluence path, i.e. the water flow contraction gradient, which is the range of the water flow gradually converging and contracting in the process of flowing to the drainage outlet or other low potential areas due to the influence of topography and water flow resistance.

[0091] In a specific implementation, the determination of the water potential direction of the target wetland can be achieved by the following method: the direction of the water flow in the target wetland is determined based on the principle of water flow from high water level to low water level and the water level height of each monitoring point, and the direction is taken as the water potential direction of the target wetland, wherein the water potential direction represents the flow direction of the water in the target wetland.

[0092] In specific implementation, the water flow buffer zone of the target wetland during drainage can be determined according to the confluence characteristics and the water potential direction in the following manner: the buffer distance of each confluence path segment is calculated according to the set formula (buffer distance = water flow velocity corresponding to the confluence path segment in the confluence characteristics * coverage area corresponding to the confluence path segment in the confluence characteristics * coefficient), and the buffer analysis tool in the geographic information system is used to generate water flow buffer zones on both sides of the confluence path according to the buffer distance of each confluence path segment. The water flow buffer zone represents the area that the water flow may affect during the drainage process of the target wetland. Other methods can also be used to determine the buffer zone in other embodiments, which are not limited here.

[0093] In specific implementation, a preset water flow convergence area is obtained by referring to the planning and design data of the target wetland, wherein the water flow convergence area represents the area where water flows converge in the target wetland; the contraction gradient of the water flow in the target wetland during drainage can be determined by the following method based on the water flow buffer zone and the preset water flow convergence area: the water flow buffer zone and the preset water flow convergence area are superimposed using the spatial overlay analysis function of the geographic information system, and the overlapping area of ​​the water flow buffer zone and the preset water flow convergence area is extracted through intersection analysis, and the overlapping area is taken as the contraction gradient of the water flow in the target wetland during drainage; other methods can also be used to determine this in other embodiments, which are not limited here.

[0094] It should be noted that the contraction gradient in this application represents the actual range in which the water flow gradually contracts towards the convergence area during the drainage process. It can be used to assess the drainage system in the target wetland, improve drainage efficiency, avoid water accumulation, enhance the target wetland's ability to cope with extreme weather such as rainstorms, and reduce the risk of flooding.

[0095] In step 104, the movement trend of the transition zone and the contraction gradient of the water flow are correlated and analyzed to obtain the disturbance cost of water level change in the target wetland. The water level status of the target wetland is calibrated based on the disturbance cost.

[0096] In some embodiments, reference Figure 3 As shown, this figure is an exemplary flowchart for determining the disturbance cost in some embodiments of this application. In this embodiment, the movement trend of the transition zone and the contraction gradient of the water flow are correlated and analyzed to obtain the disturbance cost of water level change in the target wetland. This can be achieved by the following steps:

[0097] First, in step 1041, the movement trend of the transition zone and the contraction gradient of the water flow are correlated to obtain the correlation information of water body changes in the target wetland;

[0098] Then, in step 1042, the disturbance cost of water level changes in the target wetland is determined based on the water body change correlation information.

[0099] It should be noted that the movement of the transition zone is significantly correlated with the change of the flow contraction gradient. As the flow contraction gradient decreases, the transition zone moves rapidly towards the interior of the wetland, which indicates that the change of the water body has a negative impact on the wetland ecology, which may be due to the change of the water flow causing the erosion of the wetland edge to be intensified, or because the flow contraction causes the ecological environment inside the wetland to change, which is not conducive to the survival of vegetation and organisms, thereby causing the transition zone to retreat. This correlation analysis can help us quantify the degree of impact of water body changes on wetland ecology, and then calculate the disturbance cost of the wetland ecosystem in terms of structure and function.

[0100] In specific implementation, the target wetland water body change correlation information can be obtained by correlating the movement trend of the transition zone and the flow contraction gradient, which can be achieved in the following manner: first, cross-verify the movement trend of the transition zone and the flow contraction gradient through spatial overlay analysis (such as the Zonal Statistics tool in geographic information system), calculate the area change rate and direction consistency of the spatial intersection region, analyze the time sequence causality between the transition zone displacement rate and the contraction gradient flow rate using Granger causality test, and use the set of area change rate, direction consistency and time sequence causality as the target wetland water body change correlation information, wherein the change correlation information represents information about the correlation of the water body in the target wetland during flow.

[0101] In specific implementation, the disturbance cost of the water level change in the target wetland can be determined according to the water body change correlation information, which can be achieved in the following manner: using an ecosystem service value evaluation model (such as the InVEST model), taking the change correlation information as an input parameter of the model, setting the corresponding parameters in the model (such as the carbon storage, water purification, and habitat quality module parameters) in combination with the vegetation type, biodiversity data, and soil type of the target wetland, simulating and calculating the change amount of the wetland ecosystem service value under the change correlation information through the model, and taking the change amount of the ecosystem service value as the disturbance cost of the water level change in the target wetland. In other embodiments, the disturbance cost can be determined in other ways.

[0102] It should be noted that the disturbance cost in this application represents the cost of the disturbance degree of the water level dynamic change in the target wetland to the wetland ecology, which can be used to judge the ecology in the target wetland, thereby obtaining the information of the ecology in the target wetland.

[0103] In some embodiments, the water level state of the target wetland can be calibrated according to the disturbance cost in the following steps:

[0104] determining a disturbance threshold interval of the target wetland;

[0105] judging the disturbance cost according to the disturbance threshold interval;

[0106] when the disturbance cost is lower than the lower limit value of the disturbance threshold interval, the water level state of the target wetland is marked as a good state, when the disturbance cost is within the range of the disturbance threshold interval, the water level state of the target wetland is marked as a general state, and when the disturbance cost is higher than the upper limit value of the disturbance threshold interval, the water level state of the target wetland is marked as a poor state.

[0107] In a specific implementation, the disturbance cost calculated is taken as an input feature, and the ecological state is taken as a target variable to construct a decision tree model. Through training data (such as actual data of ecological states of a plurality of target wetlands under different disturbance costs), an optimal division feature and a division threshold value are selected at each node of the decision tree model in the decision tree model. The disturbance cost currently calculated of the target wetland is input into the decision tree model, and the water level state of the target wetland is output through the decision tree model. In other embodiments, the water level state of the target wetland can also be marked in other manners, which is not limited here.

[0108] It should be noted that the disturbance threshold interval can be set according to the specific needs of the target wetland in the present application. For example, if the vegetation in the target wetland is rich, the disturbance threshold interval can be set in a high range, and if the vegetation in the target wetland is scarce, the disturbance threshold interval can be set in a low range. In other embodiments, for example, when the vegetation coverage density in the target wetland is large, the disturbance threshold interval can be set in a high range, so as to improve the protection efficiency of the target wetland.
