Hydrological characteristics of Qinhuai River
The banks of Qinhuai River are low-lying polder areas with a ground elevation of 6-8m. After the polder area is a hilly area with an altitude of less than 300 meters. This river is also a "landscape head, tidal tail" channel. Affected by the water level of the Yangtze River and the rainfall in the Qinhuai River basin, floods and droughts often occur.
According to incomplete statistics, from the third year of Wu Jiahe in the Three Kingdoms (234) to the thirty-seventh year of the Republic of China (1948), there were 229 floods. From the liberation of Nanjing to April 23, 1959, and during the winter and spring of 1949, Qinhuai River was cut off and dried up almost every year. In some years, summer and autumn also dried up. 1960, after the completion of Wudingmen Water Transfer Station, the water level of Qinhuai River can be kept above 6.5 meters all the year round.
