Abstract:
The karst aquifers are characterized by complex systems of conduits and fractures, and quantitatively describing the storage structure of these aquifers presents a significant challenge in karst hydrogeological research, particularly at the small watershed scale. The karst small watershed of Yangjichong in Longli county of Guizhou province was taken as a case study; four typical flood events from 2019 to 2022 were selected, and a quantitative analysis of the flood recession process was conducted through hydrological time series analysis and flow attenuation analysis; the components and sources of runoff during the hydrological processes were identified, and the storage structure characteristics of the karst aquifer were revealed.The results show that the peak flow attenuation process in Yangjichong small watershed can be divided into four components, including surface runoff, karst conduit flow, medium-width fracture flow, and micro-fracture-porous flow; the contributions of these components to the peak flow are approximately 9.32%-10.32%, 32.40%-36.35%, 38.46%-40.87%, and 13.14%-19.41%, respectively; karst conduits and medium-width fractures constitute the main components of the watershed's peak flow; the storage media of the karst aquifer in this small watershed can be categorized into three distinct types, including karst conduits, medium-width fractures, and micro-fracture-porous media, with karst conduits and medium-width fractures accounting for approximately 78%-85% of the primary storage media.
