Analysis of Comprehensive Management of Ecological Clean Small Watersheds in Inner Mongolia
A small watershed in Urad Front Banner is located in the Yellow River system and is severely affected by wind and water erosion,resulting in prominent soil erosion problems.In order to solve this problem,taking a small watershed in Urad Front Banner as the research area,this paper conducts comprehensive management of ec-ological clean small watersheds through zoning governance strategies.Before the implementation of the project,a detailed investigation was conducted on soil and water conservation,ditches(rivers),living environment,pollution sources,and other aspects in the small watershed.Based on the investigation results,the project was divided into three different zones and targeted governance measures were implemented.The channel improvement area is loca-ted in the upstream of a small watershed.Measures are adopted such as channel head protection,channel manage-ment,slope protection and bank protection,as well as greening and beautification for treatment;The living envi-ronment improvement area is located around residential areas,with a focus on solving problems such as soil ero-sion,pollution,domestic sewage and garbage,and adopting engineering measures and forest and grass measures for governance;Ecological natural restoration areas are mostly barren grasslands,mainly using enclosure and re-planting for ecological restoration.The implementation of the ecological clean small watershed comprehensive management project in a small watershed in Urad Front Banner has achieved significant results,effectively impro-ving the ecological environment,enhancing the quality of residents'life,and bringing comprehensive social,eco-nomic,and ecological benefits to the local area.
