ABSTRACT
Based on the hourly precipitation data and evaporation data of the meteorological in Hongze County from 1959 to 2020, we studied the relationship between extreme precipitation and annual runoff control rate from the perspective of the underlying surface of the Hongze County watershed. We conducted a literature review and statistical analysis using SPSS in this study. From 1959 to 2020, precipitation in the Hongze region varied greatly annually, with the maximum and minimum annual precipitation of 1473.8 and 349.6 mm. The precipitation fluctuated but increased, and the extreme precipitation was concentrated in July to August. The annual average evapotranspiration from 1959 to 2020 was 1165.8 mm with an inter-annual fluctuation and decrease due to the urbanization process. The process affected the local evapotranspiration condition. More evaporation was observed from May to August than from December to January with a difference of 50 mm. The evaporation data coincided with seasonal variation in Hongze County. In determining the control rate of annual total runoff, we considered the inter-annual and annual differences in precipitation. The natural runoff condition and economic cost before urbanization were explored, too. The greater the rain intensity, the earlier the runoff generation time, the shorter the confluence time, and the greater the possibility of floods. In short-duration extreme precipitation, it is necessary to pay attention to its middle period, while for long-duration extreme precipitation, it is necessary to focus on its late period.
