Characteristic Analyses of the Water2level2fluctuating Zone in the Three Gorges Reservoir
The three Gorges Reservoir is the largestwater conservancy and control projectin China. After the three Gorges Projectis completed
a 30 m high water-level-fluctuating zone (WLFZ) will appear along the two banks and the area of the WLFZ reaches about300 km2. By using GIS and RS techniques
land resources in the WLFZ are analyzed and classified in view of climate conditions
water depth in the WLFZ
slope
and soil textures of the land. The WLFZ is classified into six land models: rock exposed regions model
softrock exposed regions model
moderate and gentle model
reservoir backwater area model
unique landscapes model
and island model. The classification of the WLFZ of the three Gorges Reservoir provides a theoretic basis and scientific methods of rational development.
