序言
While China faces the general problem of water shortage, floods continue to cause moreeconomic and human damage. The catastrophic 1998 floods in the Yangtze and Songhua fiverbasins were an unfortunate reminder of this fact, directly affecting nearly one Chinese out offive. It was found out that degradation of the ecosystems caused by deforestation, cultivationon steep mountain slopes and conversion of lakes and wetlands into farm lands whichseriously limit the ability to retain and retard floodwaters had seriously aggravated thedevastating effects of the floods.
Even before the waters had receded in August 1998, leading officials from UNEP, UN-HABITAT and the State Environmental Protection Administration （SEPA） met in Beijing todiscuss initiatives on flood prevention, mitigation, and preparedness. This was followed bytwo scoping missions from UN-HABITAT and UNEP in December 1998 and January 1999,and the establishment by the three organizations of an Expert Working Group on Flood Eventsand Their Impacts in the Yangtze River basin. The inaugural meeting of the Expert WorkingGroup was held in October 1999 in Beijing. Three technical workshops in September,October, and December 1999 in Beijing assessed available technologies in China, identifiedgaps in them, and made recommendations for further actions.
The second meeting of the Expert Working Group in June 2000 in Beijing agreed to carryout an assessment of the vulnerability to floods of human settlements and the environment inthe Yangtze River basin. This vulnerability assessment, a methodology widely used in otherfields, would be unique in its application to flood calamities. It would also provide anintegrated policy framework that would allow the consideration of environmental factors andnon-engineering responses, together with conventional engineering works for floodprevention and control.
The UNEP and UN-HABITAT prepared a generic methodology for flood vulnerabilityassessment and SEPA and the Chinese Research Academy of Environmental Sciences（CRAES） prepared a specific methodology and preliminary application for the Yangtze Riverbasin. These were presented at the third meeting of the Expert Working Group in June 2001 inBeijlng, where it was decided to proceed to a pilot assessment of Dongting Lake area which isa part of the Yangtze River Basin, using these methodologies.
