A method of designing a box-type energy-dissipating section of a box-type energy-dissipating mudflow diversion flume. Firstly, the longitudinal gradient J of the flume and the roughness coefficient n 0 of a fully-lined flume bottom (1) are determined. Then, the parameters of the box-type energy-dissipating section are set, and related parameters are substituted into a formula for calculation, so that the overall roughness coefficient n of the flume is obtained. Further, the flow velocity of the mudflow is calculated by means of the Manning formula. Finally, the flow velocity of the mudflow is compared with the non-scouring and non-silting velocity allowed by the flume, and the design value of the box-type energy-dissipating section is obtained through final optimization. The method factors in the longitudinal gradient J of the flume, the length L of the box-type energy-dissipating section, the width b of the box-type energy-dissipating section, and the average diameter D of filler stones. With the method, the overall roughness coefficient n of the flume under different design conditions can be determined reasonably, so as to further implement the optimized design of the box-type energy-dissipating section of the box-type energy-dissipating mudflow flume. Further provided is an application of the method of designing a box-type energy-dissipating section of a box-type energy-dissipating mudflow flume.

A river course ecological treatment system essentially comprises a plurality of ecological biological water purification systems and a plurality of plastic retaining dams disposed along a river course, and at least one damp land ecological water purification system disposed beside the river course. The plastic retaining dams separate the river course into several retaining regions. The ecological biological water purification systems purify the water in the retaining regions by microorganism purification. Afterward, the water purified by the ecological biological water purification systems is introduced into rainwater channels of the at least one damp land ecological water purification system. After being purified by aquatic plants in the at least one damp land ecological water purification system, the water returns to the retaining regions the downstream portion of the river course. Therefore, a river improvement system capable of performing both step-by-step treatment and joint treatment is effectuated.

The present invention relates to a method for providing watering or non-watering of a specific area of soil through a first plurality of irrigation valves (42). Specific irrigation parameters are measured at the specific area of soil through a second plurality of field sensors (54). A controller unit (30) is interconnected to a third plurality of control units (18). Each control unit is connected to a specific irrigation valve and/or a specific field sensor. A type declaration providing communication under a second communication protocol is transmitted from the controller unit to the third plurality of control units using a first communications protocol. A second set of instructions are transmitted from the controller unit to the third plurality of control units using a second communications protocol. A first set of instructions are transmitted from the controller unit to the third plurality of control units using the first communications protocol.

A method and a system for identifying a glacial lake outburst debris flow (GLODF) are provided. The method is obtained based on considering induced influences of slopes of channels and particle sizes of source particles on the GLODF. The method not only compensates for deficiencies in identifying the GLODF, but also realizes determination of the GLODF, which provides data basis for disaster prevention and control layout such as monitoring and early warning on a glacial lake and assists preventing and managing disasters caused by the GLODF. Meanwhile, multiple parameters used in the method are easy and convenient to obtain, and the parameters can be directly used on site, which saves engineering cost, improves working efficiency, and has high practical and promotional value in environmental protection and disaster prevention and mitigation.
