Work Experience1. The 6th Five-Year Plan National Key Scientific and Technological Project titled "The integrated management and development of Huanghuaihai Plain", in which I finished the study on the geomorphological evaluation of the plain for agriculture. 2. The 8th Five-Year Plan National Key Scientific and Technological Project titled "The management of the Yellow River basin and development of water resources", in which I finished the study on the sediment transport and accumulation processes in the lower Yellow River. 3. The project granted by the National Natural Science Foundation of China and titled "Fluvial processes in various natural zones of China", in which I studied the erosion and sediment producing processes in various natural zones of China and revealed the zonality in erosion and specific sediment yield in China. 4. The project granted by the National Natural Science Foundation of China and titled "An experiment study of material transfer processes in s small catchment geo
