The response of runoff from inland river basins is becoming increasingly complex due to climate change and intensification of human activities, as well as underlying surface impacts. The annual distribution pattern of runoff shows spatio-temporal heterogeneity, which affects hydropower generation, irrigation, ecological-cultural value of river runoff, and puts pressure on water resource management projects.
