Sectorial Water Use Trends in the Urbanizing Pearl River Delta, China
Assessing and managing water use is crucial for supporting sustainable river basin management and regional development. The first consistent and comprehensive assessment of sectorial water use in the Pearl River Delta (PRD) is presented by analysing homogenized annual water use data from 2000 to 2010 in relation to socio economic statistics for the same period. An abstraction of water use, usin...

متن کاملExtreme value analysis of annual maximum water levels in the Pearl River Delta, China
We analyzed the statistical properties of water level extremes in the Pearl River Delta using five probability distribution functions. Estimation of parameters was performed using the L-moment technique. Goodness-of-fit was done based on KolmogorovSmirnov’s statistic D (K-S D). The research results indicate that Wakeby distribution is the best statistical model for description of statistical be...
