In this paper, the northern typical city-Xi'an was taken as an example. On the basis of temporal and spatial distribution and utilization of water resources as well as the average annual precipitation statistics during 1999 to 2008 in Xi'an, the theory of rainfall frequency curve Pearson type III was established, and its economic value was estimated from aspects such as rainfall values, costs decrease and losses reduction. The results are as following. First, according to the city's theory of rainfall frequency curve Pearson type III, it is obtained that the average annual precipitation for 732.5mm and the total precipitation for 1.89×10<sup>8</sup>m<sup>3</sup> in wet years, the average annual precipitation for 511.8mm and total precipitation for 1.32×10<sup>8</sup>m<sup>3</sup> in normal years, the average annual precipitation for 359.6mm and the total precipitation for 0.93×10<sup>8</sup>m<sup>3</sup> in dry years. Second, in wet years, the value of rainfall resource itself is 8.26×10<sup>8</sup> yuan and the decreasing costs of the city's supply is 4.12×10<sup>8</sup> yuan; in normal years, the value of rainfall resource itself is 5.78×10<sup>8</sup> yuan and the decreasing costs of the city's supply is 2.88×10<sup>8</sup> yuan; in dry years, the value of rainfall resource itself is 4.06×10<sup>8</sup> yuan and the decreasing costs of the city's supply is 3.11×10<sup>8</sup> yuan, while the losses caused by water shortage decreased by 0.19×10<sup>8</sup> yuan. In view of the great utilized value of rainfall resources, the paper brings up an approach to use city rainfall effectively from catchments of city buildings, accumulation of City Park, and utilization of agricultural and other aspects, which has practical guiding significance for the exploitation and utilization of rain in future.","PeriodicalId":6425,"journal":{"name":"2011 International Symposium on Water Resource and Environmental Protection","volume":"51 1","pages":"450-455"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78296575","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As PVA was not readily biodegradable, its interference with conventional biological treatment methods meant the necessity of abiotic oxidative pretreatments before biological treatment. The relatively simple and flexible approach was O3/UV pretreatment. This study indicated that the treatment effect was obviously affected by the time, pH value, initial concentration of PVA and flow of O3. Under the conditions of O3/UV, with the indicator of Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD), the best conditions to degrade PVA were found. In this experiment, optimum reaction conditions for PVA pretreatment were obtained as following: 80 minutes for the reaction time, 0.5% for the concentration of PVA, pH=5 and 40L/h for the flow of O3. The removal ratio of COD was 95% when combined O3/UV with biodegradation treatment.","PeriodicalId":6425,"journal":{"name":"2011 International Symposium on Water Resource and Environmental Protection","volume":"13 1","pages":"1424-1427"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75222678","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A total of 128 species of zooplankton and 9 species/assemblages of planktonic larvae were identified, including 49 species of Copepods, followed by Medusas (16 species), Protozoa (12 species), Decapods(10 species) and Chaetognatha(10 species), etc. The species/ assemblages that occurred in spring, summer, autumn and winter were 51, 45, 27, 59 species, respectively. In all, the abundance of zooplankton in the harbor inner waters was higher than that off the mouth of the Harbor waters, and the abundance was 1.1×102±1.5×102 individuals·m-3(ind. ·m-3), 1.5×102±2.3×102 ind·m-3, 4.1×10±3.4×10 ind·m-3, 5.6×10±5.0×10 ind·m-3 in spring, summer, autumn and winter, respectively. The seasonal turnover rate of dominant zooplankton species was higher than 63%, indicating relative large seasonal variation of the community structure. The Shannon-Winner diversity index averaged 3.08 annually, which increased from spring to summer, and decreased form autumn and winter to some extent. And the values of Evenness index and richness index showed similar trends as the diversity index seasonal variation. The value of community diversity was the highest in the middle waters (3.14), the second was in the mouth of the Harbor waters (3.10), and the last was in the coastal waters (2.99). Using step-wise regression method, the environmental adaption of zooplankton dominant species abundance analysis showed that the chlorophyll a, phytoplankton abundance, and sea water temperature had great effects on the dominant zooplankton species abundance, and the effects varied as the different species abundance, also indicating the differences in ecological niches among dominant zooplankton species.","PeriodicalId":6425,"journal":{"name":"2011 International Symposium on Water Resource and Environmental Protection","volume":"64 1","pages":"1943-1946"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74745298","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
