水文测验工作是水利工作的基础,在现今社会经济发展中,水文工作的作用日益凸显。建设功能全面、装备现代化的水文站对发展水文测验技术,更好地服务水利工程建设及促进社会经济发展具有重要的现实意义。金沙江三堆子水文站的建设,在服务西部大型水电开发、推进水文测验方式方法变革、创新水文测站建设管理模式等方面做出了大胆探索和成功实践。 Hydrological testing work is the foundation of water conservancy work. In today’s social and economic development, hydrological work has become increasingly prominent. It is of great practical significance to develop a hydrological testing technology, to better serve the water conservancy construction and to promote the social and economic development by building a fully equipped and modernized hydrological station. The construction of Sandysan Sandy Sub Hydrological Station made bold exploration and successful practice in serving large-scale hydropower development in western China, promoting the reform of hydrological test methods and innovating the management mode of hydrological station construction.
