Abstract
Owing to exceptional weather conditions, geographical location and topographical features, the Taihu Basin is extremely vulnerable to flood hazard. After several decades of governance, the flood control systems in Taihu Basin have been significantly improved. Taking ful advantage of vast detention capacity of Taihu Lake, the major flood control systems were constructed by discharging floodwater from north into the Yangtze River, east into the Huangpu River and south into the Hangzhou Bay. However, because of insufficient flood conveying capacities of many tributary water courses in the basin, pluvial flooding often occur during flood seasons. This paper summarized characteristics of flood control in Taihu Basin and analyzed the existing problems and potential threats to the flood control systems. The various countermeasures are proposed to deal with the chal enging situation in the Taihu Basin.关键词
