- Abstract:
-
Based on the hydrological and economic data of the Tarim River in recent 50 years, the contribution rate of nature driving factors and man-made driving factors on the water environment were analyzed in the Tarim river Basin, According to the results, the mountain caliber flows of the four origins of the Tarim River in the past 50 years did not reduce, but the amount of water flowing into the Tarim River mainstream reduced from 5.027×109m3 in 1950s to 4.605×109 m3 after 2000, and a series of environmental problems of the water appeared, such as the increase of the cutoff of the main stream, the decline of the underground water level and the aggravation of the salinity of water. Human activities lead to the deterioration directly, such as the expansion of cultivated fields and irrational irrigation, reclaim and herding, etc. Therefore, more attention should be paid on the influence of human activity in terms of the water utilization and overall control in the Tarim River Basin.
