Zhao, J. (author), Li, J. (author), Yan, H. (author), Zheng, L. (author), Dai, Z. (author)Analysis on the hydrologic characteristics of the main stream of the Yangtze River and Poyang Lake were studied to discuss the water exchange between the main stream of the Yangtze River and Poyang Lake before and after the operation of Three Gorges Reservoir, as well as in the typical dry year of 2006. The annual runoff distribution for dry...journal article 2011
