A Preliminary View on the Water Ecological Protection Plan for Talin Section of Waqie Town along the Baihe River in Hongyuan County
The ecological environment of the alpine meadow grassland watershed in the upper reaches of the Yellow River is fragile,and some of the small watershed are affected by overgrazing,thawing and freezing stripping of grass layer,river erosion,etc.,resulting in meadow degradation,serious soil and water loss,and re-duction of water conservation ability.This paper expounds the research on the above-mentioned water ecologi-cal environment problems in the small watersheds in this region.Combined with the Water Ecological Protec-tion Project of the Talin section of Wache Town along the Baihe River in the Yellow River Basin in Hongyuan County,a comprehensive governance idea of"meadow restoration,ecological bank protection,management of closing mountains and banning logging,wetland construction,and water pollution prevention and control"is proposed and a corresponding governance plan is given in the paper.After the implementation of this plan,the original ecological landscape of the area can be maintained while repairing the damaged grassland ecosystem on both sides of the river,improving the water environment quality,and enhancing the soil and water conservation and headwater conservation capacity of local small watersheds.
