Water is a source of life, an essential factor for production, and a basis forecology. The human survival and the development of economic society are closelyrelated to water, which in turn has feedback effects to human activity. Thus, therelationships between human and water is very close. With the growth of population,economic and social development, and global climate change, human and water haveincreasingly prominent contradiction, and the research on their relationships havebeen paid more attention. In the interaction of human and water, Rivers&LakesSystem (RLS) plays an important role. The effect of RLS on human-water relationshipis mainly reflected in the connectivity of rivers and lakes. The Interconnected RiverSystem Network (IRSN) directly influences water supply and irrigation, pollutantdischarge and carrying capacity. In addition, the IRSN indirectly affects economicand social development pattern and population distribution, and ultimately leads tothe change of relationships between human and water. Therefore, it is critical andnecessary to carry out the research on the changes of human-water relationship underthe IRSN.Based on the summarized current research and existing problems at home andabroad, the research in this paper was conducted from deeply understanding theconcept and connotation of IRSN and human-water relationship. Aimed at researchon human-water relationship changes for the actual situation in Zhengzhou City underthe IRSN, it mainly included the following several aspects.(1) Change analysis of human-water relationship in Zhengzhou City under theIRSN. Under the background of deeply understanding the concept and connotation ofIRSN in the new period, the influence mechanism between the IRSN and thehuman-water relationship was analyzed. Based on this, the changes of human-waterrelationship in Zhengzhou City under the IRSN in different periods were summarized.Finally, the interplay between the IRSN evolution and the changes of human-waterrelationship was discussed. (2) Quantitative assessment of human-water relationship changes in ZhengzhouCity under the IRSN. The influence mechanism of the IRSN on the human-waterrelationship and the interaction between the IRSN evolution and the changes ofhuman-water relationship were analyzed and summarized. Based on this, thequantitative index system of human-water relationship changes under the IRSN wasbuilt, and the changes of human-water relationship in Zhengzhou City werequantitatively evaluated.(3) Regulation of human-water relationship in Zhengzhou City under the IRSN.By changing the IRSN conditions, the human-water relationship regulation schemeswere designed, and the connectivity of water systems in each district of ZhengzhouCity under different control schemes were calculated. Finally, the changes ofhuman-water relationship in Zhengzhou City under different control schemes werecalculated and analyzed. |
