Good news, since the Three Gorges Reservoir started storing 175 meters in 2023, the water level has risen significantly.
From a trend perspective, this situation is very good compared to 2022. Last year, the Three Gorges Reservoir in China had a difficult time storing 175 meters of water, mainly due to the extreme drought in the Yangtze River Basin.
And this year has eased a lot compared to last year, which is also a very good thing for the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River region.
Why do you say that? Let's take a step-by-step look below.
The water level of the Three Gorges Reservoir has surged, approaching 165 meters
The Three Gorges is extremely important to our country and has brought many benefits. The project was founded in 1994, and the dam body is a concrete gravity dam. The dam axis is 2309.47 meters long, with a total length of 2335 meters. In terms of main functions, it mainly consists of three.
FirstlyThe flood control function of the Three Gorges Dam. After the completion of the Three Gorges Dam, it has played a full role in flood control. The flood control standard for the Jingjiang reach of the Yangtze River in China has been raised from a 10-year return period to a 100 year return period, effectively protecting tens of millions of people and millions of hectares of arable land in the the Middle and Lower Yangtze Valley Plain plain from the threat of floods.
Of course, when it comes to flood control, many people say 'hehe'. Indeed, it seems that there hasn't been much rain in the past two years, mainly because the climate has changed, and the rainwater structure in China may have undergone a certain transformation.
So, it seems like there hasn't been much use for flood control.
However, before this, I believe many friends in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River should have clearly felt the flood control effect it brings. Therefore, when it comes to flood control, many people "haha", and those who have not experienced it, there is indeed no need to comment.
SecondlyThe power generation capacity of the Three Gorges Dam.
The Three Gorges Dam power generation is a part of the development of clean energy and an important component of China's West to East power transmission project. With the construction of the Three Gorges Dam power transmission and transformation project, a series of transmission projects such as Sanchang and Sanguang have been put into operation, and the scale of the West to East power transmission medium channel has been formed. In addition, the Three Gorges power and Sichuan hydropower continue to be transmitted to East China and Guangdong, and the clean hydropower in the west has played an important role in areas lacking energy in the east, Energy resources have been optimized and allocated among regional power grids.
ThirdlyThe drought resistance capacity of the Three Gorges Dam was very evident last year, and it has replenished water several times in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River in China.
Data shows that during the main period of 2022, the Yangtze River Basin experienced drought, and the Three Gorges Reservoir provided 156 days of downstream water replenishment, with a total amount of approximately 21.8 billion cubic meters. Therefore, it has effectively alleviated water scarcity in many regions. Of course, in fact, friends in the Poyang Lake and Dongting Lake regions should feel it clearly.
During the drought last year, the water sources in these two regions were very scarce. The Three Gorges Reservoir conducted multiple water source adjustments, completing the replenishment of water in these areas and alleviating water use for agricultural irrigation and other areas.
So, from these three functions, the construction of the Three Gorges Reservoir is a good project that benefits the country and the people. In such a situation, many people may still have misunderstandings about the Three Gorges Project. It can only be said that they cannot change you, and they may have enjoyed the benefits brought by the Three Gorges themselves, but they are still saying it's not good.
It can only be said here that everything has a dual nature, and the benefits brought by the Three Gorges far outweigh the weak drawbacks that everyone has claimed. Many people say that the Three Gorges Dam has changed the climate of our country, which is completely "nonsense". It has long been demonstrated that after the completion of the Three Gorges Reservoir construction, the impact on the climate has a certain range.
In the Environmental Impact Report of the Three Gorges Water Control Project on the Yangtze River, it was mentioned that a scientific analysis was conducted on the climate issues after the formation of the Three Gorges Reservoir. The basic conclusion is that after the construction of the Three Gorges Reservoir, the impact range on temperature, humidity, wind, and fog in the reservoir area and adjacent areas generally does not exceed 10 kilometers.
The impact on precipitation is that the annual average precipitation within the region will increase by 3mm, the precipitation over the reservoir and the leeward areas along the coast will decrease, and the precipitation on the windward slope of the airflow will increase.
So, changing the climate of the Yangtze River in China is completely out of thin air. The climate change of the Yangtze River in China comes from the Earth's climate change, not something that can be controlled by a reservoir.
Anyway, every time someone makes such a statement, let me briefly explain it here. Don't misunderstand too deeply. If you still refute, I won't be able to influence you here. You have your ideas, I have mine, so it's irrelevant. I'm just explaining my points.
So, seeing the Three Gorges Reservoir approaching 165 meters is a good thing, as the water level has skyrocketed.
Why is it good for the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River when the water level of the Three Gorges Reservoir rises sharply?
That's right, as you can see from the drought resistance capability above, if the Three Gorges Reservoir's 175 meter water storage is completed ahead of schedule this year, then a "circular" water source release can be adopted.
In this way, the circular development of water sources in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River is also very good.
Moreover, even if there is a lack of rain in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, the operation of the Three Gorges Reservoir can still play a huge role. Therefore, when we see that the water levels in Poyang Lake and Dongting Lake in China are decreasing again, there is no need to worry too much. If there is a shortage of water in the future, it will definitely be replenished again.
However, compared to water sources such as Poyang Lake and Dongting Lake, this still requires our own water system to promote water sources. Especially Poyang Lake, which receives water from the five major rivers of Gan River, Fu River, Xin River, Rao River, and Xiu River, as well as from areas such as Boyang River, Zhangtian River, and Tongjin River. If these water systems do not have rainwater, it will definitely be difficult to reach them.
At the same time, Poyang Lake itself does not have any problems such as dams, and as long as there is water, it will flow away.
So, if we want the water level to be more stable, we can only rely on the continuous development of water sources, and there is no other way.
So, seeing the water level of the Three Gorges Reservoir rise is indeed a good thing for the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River.
summary
Overall, with the global climate change, the Yangtze River Basin in China has indeed undergone a transformation, and the role of the Three Gorges Reservoir may become even greater in the future. This is also an unavoidable matter, as the entire Earth's climate has changed and various regions of China have also been affected.
So, in order for humanity to restore the Earth to a relatively stable climate state, it is necessary to maintain a stable climate state, otherwise there is no other way.
This also indicates that the Earth's climate is constantly changing, and we need to increase the process of climate change.
Otherwise, if we want to reverse the stability of the climate after a complete and earth shaking change in the climate, time may be running out.
This is also one of the reasons why the United Nations continues to issue warnings that the Earth's climate collapse may have already occurred.
Because humans have not made concerted efforts to change the climate, otherwise the Earth's climate will not remain more extreme and the warming trend will continue.
