摘要
The 2009 typhoon Morakot dumped more than 3,005 mm of rain in mountain areas of the Tsengwen reservoir watershed and caused unprecedented landslide and sediment-related disasters. Subsequently, the storage capacity of the Tsengwen reservoir was drastically reduced. In order to increase the longevity of the reservoir and also protect ecosystems and the peoples living in the upper portions of the watershed, the Taiwan Executive Yuan implemented the "Tsengwen, Nanhua, Wushantou Reservoir Remediation and Water Resources Protection Act". This study aims to use multi-scale sediment monitoring techniques including field investigations and multi-stage remote sensing data to identify sediment migration patterns associated with remediated areas of the Tsengwen reservoir watershed after typhoon Morakot and to guarantee the effectiveness of remediation efforts. A case study of the Longjiao creek in Tsengwen Reservoir watershed shows that remediation works can not only reduced sediment production due to erosion and landslides, but future sediment production will also be suppressed. The reduction of sediments carried by the Tsengwen river will also lead to an increase in the service life of the Tsengwen reservoir.
