三峡水库建在径流丰沛的长江。对于这样的水库改善泥沙调度有可能减少水库淤积，显著提高水库效益。文章对蓄清排浑和双汛限调度方案的良好效果做了简略说明。所使用的数学模型除与模型试验资料做过比较外，还引用了黄河下游10年的不恒定输沙资料进行了率定和验证，结果比较接近。鉴于三峡工程十分重要，现阶段成果还只看成是初步的，正安排进一步用模型试验及其他数模校核。

In this preliminary study, it is shown that for a reservoir on a river of rich runoff, such as the Yangtze, elaborate scheme of sediment management may be devised to substantially reduce reservoir deposition. The mathematical model applied in this investigation has been fairly well verified with long - term field data of sediment transport by unsteady flow in the Lower Yellow River. In view of the importance of TGP, however, further investigation with physical models and mathematical model of other versions is planned. Great financial benefits are involved.
