本文详述了近年来黄河源头来水减少,而下游用水量大幅度增加,下世纪初有可能断流;缓解黄河危机的捷径,是采用人工增雨的“空中调水”的办法;通过两年的实践,证明空中调水是可行的;结论是投资省、见效快、效益好,并具有改善源头生态平衡的作用。 This paper details the reduction of source water coming from the source of the Yellow River in recent years and the substantial increase of water consumption in the downstream so as to cut off the flow at the beginning of the next century. The shortcut to alleviate the crisis of the Yellow River is the “air-to-water transfer” using artificial rainfall. Years of practice proved that air-water transfer is feasible; the conclusion is that investment in the province is quick, effective and has the effect of improving the source ecological balance.
