Sedimentation and regulation technologies in the Three Gorges Reservoir

Abstract Sedimentation is one of the key technical problems present throughout feasibility demonstration, design, construction, and operation of the Three Gorges Project. Since the Three Gorges Reservoir (TGR) began impoundment operation in 2003, important progress has been made in sedimentation and...
