Abstract:Urban channels play an important role in flood control and waterlogging drainage, and improving urban environment, etc. In order to further improve the channel function, improve the self-purification ability of water bodies, and promote the sustainable development of urban ecosystems, it is necessary to further strengthen the design of urban channel projects and the construction of ecosystems. The current problems of the Jiufeng Open Channel in Wuhan are analyzed. And the methods of designing the Jiufeng Open Channel Project and constructing the ecosystem are specially put forward. Through the design of the channel project, the needs of flood control and waterlogging drainage of the channel are met. On this basis, the construction method of the ecosystem suitable for the channel is proposed. The water ecological purification capacity of the channel is restored, and the landscape effect of the channel is further improved, which provides reference for the governance of the similar urban channel projects.
