✦ Synopsis

The Xinanjiang reservoir is located in the mountainous region of Zhejiang and Anhui Provinces. Since the construction of the reservoir in 1959, there was no sufficient amount of stored water during the years 1960-1972. This paper analyzes the effects of reservoir on precipitation. The results obtained are: (1) The main effects are decreases of summer rainfall and annual rainfall (100 mm at a point 10 km apart from the margin), and slight increase in winter. (2) At the site farther from the reservoir and higher in altitude, annual rainfall increased, 100--200 mm increase at the 50-60 km distance. (3) The average annual rainfall for the whole basin decreases only by 6 mm or so. (4) The effect changes from year to year. It is less in the rainy year than in the dry year.

The annual average degree of phosphorus retention (both TP and O f ) in reservoirs was found to depend mainly on the theoretical retention time (RT). The phosphorus retention ( R P ) is shown for some reservoirs in Czech Republic to be well approximated (standard deviation = 10.9) with RP,Tp) = 74.7
