ACCIDENTS & DISASTERS : DAM BREAK IN CHINA AFTER HEAVY RAIN


DAM BREAK IN CHINA AFTER HEAVY RAIN

COULD POINT TO A 'BLACK SWAN' DISASTER

Dam collapse in China could point to a 'black swan' disaster.

The dam at a small reservoir in China’s Guangxi region gave way last month after days of heavy rain in a collapse that could be a harbinger of sterner tests for many of the country’s 94,000 aging dams as the weather gets more extreme.

Located in Yangshuo county, famed for its otherworldly karst landscape, the dam collapsed at around midday on June 7, inundating roads, orchards and fields in Shazixi village, residents told Reuters.

 

“I’ve never seen such flooding,” said villager Luo Qiyuan, 81, who helped build the dam decades ago.

 

“The water levels were never so high in previous years, and the dam had never collapsed.”

 

Completed in 1965, the dam, made of compacted earth, was designed to hold 195,000 cubic metres of water, enough to fill 78 Olympic-size swimming pools and meet the irrigation needs of Shazixi’s farmers.

 

On a visit to the reservoir in mid-July, Reuters found the length of the dam, of about 100 metres, had largely vanished. It was reinforced 25 years ago.

 

The water went over the dam, which then collapsed, said a member of a survey crew at the reservoir, declining to be identified as he was not authorised to speak to media.

 

Shazixi residents said there were no deaths.

 

But the collapse, which was not reported by domestic media, suggests big storms might be enough to overwhelm reservoirs, especially if the design is inferior and maintenance has been patchy.

 

That raises the prospect of disaster in river valleys and flood plains that are much more densely populated than they were when the dams were built.

 

Environmental groups say climate change is bringing heavier and more frequent rain. Massive flooding could trigger unforeseen “black swan” events, the government says, with extreme consequences.

EXTREME EVENTS.

Thousands of dams were built in the 1950s and 1960s in a rush led by Mao Zedong to fend off drought in a largely agrarian China.

 

In 2006, the Ministry of Water Resources said, between 1954 and 2005, dykes had collapsed at 3,486 reservoirs due to sub-standard quality and poor management.

 

It was unclear if record-breaking rains were to blame for the Shazixi collapse or if the dam’s emergency spillway had been blocked by silt or if it was a design problem.

 

The water resources department in the area declined to comment. The county government did not respond to a request for comment.

In Guangxi, in southwestern China, rainfall and temperatures were on average significantly higher in 1990-2018 compared with the previous 29 years, official data shows.

 

It’s the extreme events that put dams at risk, said David Shankman, a geographer at the University of Alabama who studies Chinese floods.

 

“But a dam should be able to withstand extreme events even if they become regular, and when the flood is over, it should be exactly of the same quality as before the event, if the dam was properly designed and built,” Shankman said.

 

According to a notice at the Shazixi reservoir’s monitoring station, the 151.2 metre-tall dam was built with a once-every-two-century worst-case scenario in mind in which water was expected to reach 149.48 metres. Last month, it overflowed.

 

In the county seat of Yangshuo in June, more rain fell in three hours than usually falls in two months.

 

The Ministry of Water Resources did not respond to a request for comment.

 

In what could be another sign of trouble to come, water behind a dam on a tributary of the Yangtze river rose so sharply that authorities on Sunday were forced to blow up part of the dam to lower the level.

The final part of Professor Jim Al-Khalili's documentary series about the basic building block of our universe, the atom.

 

Al-Khalili explores how studying the atom forced us to rethink the nature of reality itself, encountering ideas that seem like they are from science fiction but in fact are a central part of modern science. He discovers that there might be parallel universes in which different versions of us exist and finds out that empty space is not empty at all, but seething with activity.

 

The world we think we know - the solid, reassuring world of our senses - turns out to be a tiny sliver of an infinitely weirder and more wonderful universe than we had ever conceived in our wildest fantasies.

 

The story of the discovery that everything is made from atoms, one of the greatest scientific breakthroughs in history, and the brilliant minds behind it.
