利用1956~2011年的流域气温、降水量、径流量及有关文献所载蒸发量、水库修建、用水量、水土保持等资料,探讨气候变化和人类活动对长江径流量的影响.结果表明:(1)流域气温明显上升,且上升速率大于全球平均上升速率;(2)流域平均降水量下降了约1%,年降水量与年均气温之间无显著相关性;(3)年径流量随降水量频繁振荡,最大和最小值之比达1.9;(4)太阳净辐射量和风速下降导致流域自然蒸发作用减弱,而水库修建、耗水增多和水土保持等人类活动则使蒸发作用加强.两方面的影响相互削弱;入海年径流量下降1%;(5)流域内分区间存在差异,北域(岷江、嘉陵江和汉江)人类活动的影响居主导地位,径流量下降约15%;中域(金沙江以下干流两翼“未测区”)则以气候变化的影响占优,径流量上升约9%;西域(金沙江流域)径流量减少4%;南域(乌江、洞庭湖和鄱阳湖流域)径流量上升2%.推断今后几十年气候要素仍将主导径流量的年际波动,而南水北调、新建水库、耗水增多和水土保持加强将可能使径流量再下降约10%.
This paper aims to investigate the climatic and anthropogenic impacts on the Yangtze River water discharge over the last six decades.We analyzed the time series of annual temperature,precipitation,evaporation and water discharge,employing the means of Mann-Kendall and regression methods,in combination with data of reservoir construction,water consuming,and water and soil conservation.The results are as follows.(1) From 1956 to 2011,the catchment-averaged annual temperature significantly increased,at a rate greater than the level of global average.(2) No significant trend was found for the catchment-averaged annual precipitation,and therefore the annual precipitation was not well related to the annual temperature.(3) No significant trend was found for the catchment-wide actual evaporation (i.e.the difference between precipitation and runoff),although a significant decreasing trend was found for the catchment-wide annual pan evaporation.(4) Inter-annual changes in annual precipitation and water discharge were frequent and significant.For the whole Yangtze River Basin,the maximum annual precipitation was 1.4 times greater than the minimum annum precipitation,and the maximum annual discharge was 1.9 times greater than the minimum annual discharge.The correlation between annual precipitation and water discharge was very significant (R2=0.78).(5) No statistically significant trend was found for the annual water discharge of the Yangtze River,although the water discharge decreased by 3% from the initial decade (1956-1965) to the recent decade (2002-2011).(6) Spatial changes in climatic and anthropogenic impacts on water discharge were found within the Yangtze River Basin.A significant decreasing trend in annual water discharge was found for the North Area (Minjiang,Jialingjiang and Hanjiang tributaries),and a significant increasing trend in annual water discharge was found for the Centre Area (the "ungauged area" along the main river below the Jinshajiang),wh
