Abstract
The hydrodynamic variation process of the river flow in the reservoir of the Three Gorges Project was simulated by using the software Mike 11 based on the hydrological observation data from 2002 to 2003. According to the growth status of spawns or fries captured at the Yunyang Gauge Station, Chongqing city, the spawning sites of different kinds of Chinese carps can be determined by the flow distance based on the hydrodynamic calculation results. The accuracy of the spawning sites determined by this method is much better than those calculated according to the averaged velocity of the river. The uncertainty of this method is also discussed.
