塔里木河地处塔里木盆地平原区,自身不产流,水源靠上游源流和开都河～孔雀河补给。随着源流区人口的不断增加,工农业用水逐年增大,源流来水不断减少,从20世纪70年代开始,中、下游河道(位于巴音郭楞蒙古自治州境内)出现季节断流,且断流河长连年递增,尾闾～台特玛湖干涸,下游绿色生态环境严重恶化,沙漠化加剧。为了恢复和改善下游生态环境,国家开始对塔里木河流域实施综合治理,从2000年开始,通过向下游“绿色走廊”应急输水,2001年11月水流到达台特玛湖,下游生态环境开始得到改善。 The Tarim River is located in the plains area of ​​Tarim Basin, which does not produce any flow of its own, and the water source is supplied by the upstream source and the open river ~ Peacock River. With the increase of the population in source area, the water used in agriculture and industry has been increasing year by year, and the source and source of water have been decreasing. From the 1970s onwards, the middle and lower reaches of the river (located within the Bayinguoleng Mongolian Autonomous Prefecture) The flow of rivers grows year after year, the tail of Taitama Lake dries up, and the downstream green ecological environment deteriorates seriously and the desertification intensifies. In order to restore and improve the downstream ecological environment, the state began to implement comprehensive management of the Tarim River Basin, from 2000 onwards, through to the downstream “Green Corridor ” emergency water delivery, in November 2001 the water reaches Taitama Lake, the lower reaches of the ecological environment Began to get better.
