Simulating reduction of runoff sediment load by restoration of cultivated land to forest
in Jialingjiang catchment,the upper region of the Changjiang
退耕還林シナリオによる水・土砂流出抑制効果-嘉陵江流域を対象として-
MURAKAMI, ShogoNational Institute for Environmental Studies
Background• Reduction of forest area and increase of sediment yield
in the upper region of Changjiang River Catchment
⇒ decrease of water retention function, sedimentation in lake and reservoir(degradation of retarding function),
sedimentation in middle and lower region (Raised bed river, decrease of flow conveyance)
↓One of main reasons which cause large flood frequently
• Sedimentation problem in TDM reservoir ⇒bad influence on flood control function (one of functions expected to TDM )
退耕還林project (restoration of cultivated land to forest )↑
One of National Project for flood disaster protection“The 32-character plan”
Necessary to evaluate quantitatively effect of project scenario on reduction of rainfall runoff and sediment runoff

Reduction of sediment loadAccumulated effect through the whole catchment
Summary• To evaluate the effect of the restoration of cultivated land to
forest in the Jialingjiang basin on runoff and sediment loads, we used a spatially distributed catchment hydrologic model, HSPF, with improved sediment production processes and disaggregated hourly precipitation data from gauged daily precipitation data for 1987 as inputs, and confirmed its applicability as a tool for evaluating the runoff and sediment load processes.
• Through the simulations to evaluate the effect of the restoration of farmland to forest on sediment production in the Jialingjiangbasin, we found that restoration to forest clearly reduces sediment production even in the case of the minimum restoration at the slope threshold of 25°, although the effect on the reduction of peak flow rate in river channels was small. Moreover, the increase in restored forest area by lowering the slope thresholddecreased sediment production further.
