A Dissipative Hydrological Model for the Hotan Oasis (DHMHO)

Abstract: Various hydrological models have been designed to simulate moisture transformation in the water-cycle system between atmospheric water, surface water, soil water and groundwater. But few have been designed specially for oases in arid desert areas where the ecology and the environment are vulnerable because of unwise water-land resources utilization. In order to analyze the moisture transformation in the Hotan Oasis in the Taklimakan Desert in China, and hence to provide scientific references for the rational e… Show more

“…Although the warmer and wetter climate of the Hotan Oasis (Fig. 6a, b) was favorable to oasis expansion, the high evaporation rate and frequent flooding of Hotan River accelerated soil salinization across the basin (Zhao, et al, 2009;Huang and Shen, 2010).…”

“…Water is mainly recharged by alpine glaciers and snow-melt water, and precipitation in the mainstream area of the river does not generate water flow. The Tarim River is thus regarded as a typical dissipation-only inland river with a unique dissipative aquatic ecosystem (Feng et al, 2005;Zhao et al, 2009).…”

“…The model was successfully applied to the oasis in the Akesu River Basin in north-west China [88] . Zhao et al [77] developed a similar model and applied it to the Hotan Oasis (DHMHO). They are both conceptual models without detailed descriptions of soil water dynamics in the saturatedunsaturated zone.…”
