    The crop optimal irrigation time varies with irrigation and precipitation under the limited water supply, and accordingly optimal distribution of soil moisture in the growth period does with it. The concept of dynamic irrigation low limit (DILL) is so proposed and the method determining DILL was given based on the optimal irrigation scheduling in this paper. The optimal irrigation scheduling is established according to crop-water model which was formed by coupling the crop growth model (P123), soil water-heat- nitrogen dynamic model, and crop evapotranspiration model. The parameters of the crop-water model were calibrated and validated with the data of winter wheat and multiple cropping corn field experiment conducted in 2008, 2009, 2011 and 2012. Five optimal irrigation schedules of typical year were determined in maximizing benefit of winter wheat and multiple cropping corn under the limited water supply. We further estimated 45 groups of the average soil moisture content of main root zone (0-60cm) before an irrigation, the corresponding irrigation time and water supply, from the optimal irrigation schedules. From these data, a predict model of winter wheat and multiple cropping corn DILL was established by alternately using excel solver and multiple regression analysis from Office Excel. The yield and benefit increase,due to use the DILL model to forecast the irrigation time under the limited water supply, was simulated based on the crop-water model. The results showed that under the 4 times and 3 times irrigation the yield average increases in five years (2008~2012) are 8.3% and 18.1% for winter wheat, 5.8% and 1.3% for multiple cropping corn, and the benefit increase are 10.0% and 14.1% respectively, comparing to the traditional irrigation. The proposed method can avoid the shortage of the traditional way in which the determination of irrigation lower limit is solely dependent on field experiment. The irrigation forecast based on DILL provides an important method to implement and dynamically determine optimal irrigation scheduling under the limited water supply.

    In order to research the relations between the root-water-uptake of crop and salt transport in root zone, field experiments were conducted under saline water irrigation in Shiyang Rive Basin. It introduced into the root-water-uptake model, which was proposed by Feddes. the root-water-uptake model coefficients were calculated based on the field experiments and practical observed data. The results showed that the maximum root-water-uptake rate was calculated under the optimal irrigation conditions by calculating relative root length density and potential transpiration rate. It also calculated salinity stress reduction function under sufficient irrigation with saline water by calculating transpiration intensity and soil osmotic potential. The parameter (p) of salinity stress reduction function was validated and compared with calculation value. The RMSE values were less than 0.1 and the MRE values were less 10% within the allowable error range in validation and calculation of the parameter (p). It established the root-water-uptake model of maize under salinity stress conditions. This model can benefit understanding of the law of soil water-salt movement under maize growth.

    The ratio of new types of agricultural business entities to continue to adopt drip irrigation technology is higher than small-scale farmers. The main reason for a high proportion of the water-saving technology appliance of new types of agricultural business entities is labor-saving instead of water-saving. The reasons for small-scale farmers’ abandon included that the problem of new water-saving irrigation technology adaptability, bad quality of village public management and farmers cooperation and high risks of agricultural investment. For a good extension of drip irrigation technology, reforms of water fee system should be promoted,the support to small-scale farmers and the follow-up management of water-saving agricultural projects should be emphasized. Solving contradictions between food security and water resources must be thought as the primary objective of the extension.

    It is difficult for the conditions of water samples collection, transportation and storage to satisfy the requirements of national standard method during the assessment of water quality in remote areas. In this study, the CODCr, TP and F- were set as the water quality evaluation index, the factors that influenced the water-quality index were simulated and evaluated, and the effective solutions were obtained. Studies show that, when the water samples were acidified with sulphuric acid to pH<2.0 and then placed steadily at 4℃ for one day, the test results from national standard method were consistent with those from portable instrument test method. If the water samples cannot be stored at 4℃ due to some restrictions, the results from portable instrument test method can meet the test requirements through adjusting the pH of water samples<2.0 and placed steadily at room temperature for one day. For the test of total phosphorus content, water samples need to be acidified at the scene, preserved and transported at room temperature and determined within 24 hours. The storage time could not be more than 3 days for long distance transportation. Furthermore, shaking and transient temperature rise had little effect on the determination of total phosphorus content. For the test of fluoride content, water samples should not be acidified and the test should be finished within two weeks if the water samples were stored at room temperature. In addition, the studies show that there are some limitations for the test method by portable instrument when the compositions of the water samples are complicated.

    Under the background of global climate change and urbanization, waterlogging and water shortage are frequent in cities. This situation reflects that the constructions of the water landscapes lack comprehensive thinking from the view of multifunction. When we look back at the history of human settlements, the traditional rural landscapes can be seen as excellent models of sustainable development. The traditional rural landscapes not only can cope with natural disasters, but also integrate various functions in terms of production, living and ecology. In this paper, the Water Landscapes of Traditional Rural Settlements in Guangdong Province, China will be used as examples to analyze their seven interactive functions from the perspective of the sustainable combination of production, living and ecology functions. The author argues that the traditional landscapes with production, living and ecology functions are the results of rural residents' explorations and practices through concerted efforts with the goal of improving their human settlements. Under the trend of the deepening division of labor in cities, the goal and the process of improving people’s human settlements are fragmented. In order to cope with global climate change, the construction of sustainable landscapes with multifunction should start from communities building.

    Dam deformation prediction was a key component of the dam safety monitoring system and played a key role on monitoring the safe operation of the dam. However, the dam deformation monitoring data was easy to be polluted by random interference noise, which would affect the deformation prediction accuracy. Therefore, a Kalman-ARIMA model was proposed, which firstly removed the random interference noise of observed data based on the Kalman filter, and then used the ARIMA model to model the filtered data and made predictions. Combined with a dam displacement monitoring data, the displacement of this dam was predicted with Kalman-ARIMA model, which then was compared with the displacement prediction only using of ARIMA model. The results showed that Kalman-ARIMA model could effectively reduce the errors between the prediction value and true value, and this model could be applied to dam deformation prediction.

    This article select daily precipitation data from 1959 to 2006 from 17 meteorological stations in Huangshui River basin for studying drought trend here. First, we calculated the standardized precipitation index (SPI) which scale is six months. then, we studied the trend of SPI、drought duration and drought severity by using the Mann - Kendall Trend Test. Finally, we used three kinds of commonly functions from Archimedean Copula Function Family to joint the sequence of drought duration and drought severity, and optimized the best copulas connect fitting function and calculated the joint return period of combined moderate drought and heavy drought. Analysis on time scales shows the time this basin tended to wet concentrated in 6 ~ 9 months and arid trend were concentrated in December to march of next year. The polarized situation of more drought in the severe drought season and wetter in the wet season may enhance the drought in summer in this basin. Analysis on the spatial distribution shows the drought risk in southeastern basin is higher than northwest. The possibilities of light drought in southeast basin will be increased.

    In order to shorten the calculating time effectively for solving the optimal power-generation scheduling of reservoir(s), in recent years, scholars have carried out related research on the parallel strategy for reservoir (s) optimal calculating. Asynchronous parallel calculating used in the mid-long-term optimal power-generation scheduling of series-connected reservoirs based on the method of large system decomposition and coordination is proposed in this paper. Taking the series-connected reservoirs composed by two reservoirs located in Lixian River for example, in its mid-long-term optimal power-generation scheduling, decomposition-coordination asynchronous parallel calculating method has got related verification. To resolve the problems for the optimal scheduling of mixed-connected reservoirs, this new parallel strategy also provides a new direction of application and research for improving calculating efficiency.
