2008‚ the Chinese State Environmental Protection Agency declared that water quality is worsening in many branches of the Yangtze River that drain into the reservoir. Additionally‚ the quality of water behind the reservoir is only minimally improving. This can be attributed to the slowing of the natural flow of the river due to the dam and reservoir. The reduced flow inhibits the rivers ability to flush out pollutants naturally (Bradsher‚ 2008). Even before construction began on the 3 Gorges Dam the

It consists of the reservoir tank‚ which contains the brake fluid; and the piston and cylinder which generate the hydraulic pressure. The reservoir tank is made mainly of synthetic resin‚ while the cylinders are made of cast iron or an aluminum alloy. Master Cylinder Stores brake fluid and converts the motion of the brake pedal

The typical hydraulic regime and flow characteristics of each reservoir were other key factors considered during criteria development. The relationship between water quality‚ biomass accumulation‚ and hydraulic residence time (or retention time)‚ which is the average amount of time required to completely renew a reservoir’s water volume‚ was taken into account when establishing the chlorophyll a criteria. For example‚ reservoirs associated with “run-of-the-river” dams typically have small hydraulic
