Sediment Transport in the Yellow River
Journal of Hydraulic Engineering, 1996Yang's unit stream power formula is modified for the computation of total bed-material load in a sediment-laden river with a high concentration of fine suspended materials. Theoretical and laboratory studies indicate that modification can be made on the values of particle fall velocity, flow viscosity, and relative specific weight without any change of

Fish of the Upper Yellow River
2016The native fish species of the Upper Yellow River are dominated by schizothoracine fishes of the Cyprinidae (carp family) and nemacheiline fishes of the Cobitidae (loach family). These species have adapted and evolved over millions of years to the highland environment. They play significant roles in the trophic web of freshwater communities.
