    Songnen Plain is a large water storage basin of a multi-layer stacked structure including widespread distribution of phreatic and Quaternary and former Quaternary confined water. Each aquifer groundwater has different hydrochemistry that is affected by geological, geomorphological and hydrogeological conditions. Quaternary phreatic widely distributed native environment is poor, vulnerable to artificially pollution, in which fluoride is higher than the standard in the central of the Songnen low plains, easily lead to fluorosis, not suitable for drinking. Quaternary confined water is mainly distributed in the central of low plains and eastern high plains in Songnen Plain, in which fluorine is higher, not suitable for drinking in low plain area and lower, suitable for drinking in high plain area, influenced by the native environment. Former Quaternary confined water mainly distributed in vast areas outside the western piedmont sloping plain, water quality is better, and fluorine meet the drinking water requirements, but the amount of water changes lager. Neogene Daan group and Paleogene Yian group confined water is abundantd and depth is large, supply conditions is poor, that is suitable for drinking, but controlling exploiting in low plain. Cretaceous aquifer group, which has better water quality, lower fluorine in high plain is suitable for drinking, but the distribution is uneven, so to scientific development. It is proposed that scientific and rational development and utilization model of groundwater in Songnen Plain, provides the basis for government decision-making.

    In order to improve the precision of the ground water mathematical model, and reduce the error which caused by hydrogeological parameter’s uncertainty, we need to analyse the hydrogeological parameter’s sensitivity of numerical simulation model. This paper based on the identification and verification of an irrigation district’s groundwater flow numerical model, using factor transformation method to do the parameter analysis with permeability coefficient and specific yield of aquifer, atmospheric precipitation infiltration recharge coefficient. The results of the study show that, the ground water level is most sensitive to permeability coefficient, and then is the atmospheric precipitation infiltration recharge coefficient. For the large variability of aquifer lithology in valley area, the ground water level is more sensitive than any other regions. Through the parameter sensitivity analysis we can screen out the most uncertainty factors of the numerical model, thus to avoid the blindness of model parameters calibration, and improve the reliability of the regional groundwater resources evaluation.

    The bad hydraulic performances such as uneven flow distribution in three tanks, big fluctuations of water surface and big inlet velocity were found through the hydraulic model test research on the original sand basin. In order to overcome the shortages, the original sand basin has being improved by using a adjusting flow board in forepart basin to adjust the flow entering sand basin. Experimental results indicate that optimal design sand basin had better hydraulic performances. In view of inability to get the test data completely due to small velocity in sand basin, optimal design sand basin was studied by means of numerical stimulation using 3D - standard turbulence model. The numerical results were in good agreement with experimental data and the velocity distributions were indicated.

    In order to study the impact which atomized rain caused by flood discharge has on the stability of slope on the left bank for Baihetan hydropower station, through analyzing the geological conditions of dam site, the computational condition of slope stability are determined. Based on the results of 3-D saturated-unsaturated seepage computation by finite element method in the process of a typical atomized rainfall caused by flood discharge, considering seepage pressure of the transient saturated zone, negative pore water pressure of the unsaturated zone, and the softening effect which will reduce the shear strength of saturated structural planes, this paper computes the vertical displacement, stress distribution, shear strain rate, and the plastic zone of the left slope at different moments using the software FLAC3D. Through the comparison with natural state, rainfall infiltration will significantly raise pressure head of the shallow slope, transient saturated zone with large scale will appear in the slope toe. The value of deformation, stress, and shear strain rate will increase significantly compared to the natural state. Rainfall infiltration could also induce damage of the deep slope slide, which will worsen stability of the local slope.
