The mean of Flow Regime Coefficient’s value of upstream is 65.66 (medium) and downstream is 333.63 (very high), while the increasing rate of 7.72 and 59.13 a year respectively. The mean Annual Flow Coefficient is 0.14 for upstream and downstream 0.22, which increases 0.99% and 0.93% a year respectively. The tendency of the value of the Water Use Index decreased with an annual average of 0.31 and a rate of decline of 0.005 a year.
