Erosion-control mechanism of sediment check dams on the Loess Plateau

Zhaoyin Wang et al.

Summary: Severe soil erosion on the Loess Plateau in China has been effectively controlled by constructing a large number of sediment check dams, which has reduced the sediment load of the Yellow River. The primary function of check dams is to trap sediment and promote vegetation development, while also reducing erosion energy to minimize soil erosion and sediment yield.

Water and sediment yield response to extreme rainfall events in a complex large river basin: A case study of the Yellow River Basin, China

Zan Xu et al.

Summary: Using the SWAT model, this study analyzed the response of water and sediment yield in the Yellow River Basin to extreme rainfall events, showing improved accuracy when considering intensive human activities. The study found significant differences in the response to extreme rainfall events among different regions in the basin.

Response of sediment discharge to soil erosion control in the middle reaches of the Yellow River

Yang Zhao et al.

Summary: The study found significant changes in sediment discharge of the Yellow River over the past 60 years, particularly in the main trunk stream and primary tributaries. The impact of soil and water conservation measures on sediment discharge is significant, with marginal benefit analysis indicating the influence of soil erosion control on sediment reduction benefits.
