Zhang, T.; Shen, Y., and Zhang, D., 2020. Integrated management of an eco-clean small watershed in the Qinba Mountainous Area. In: Hu, C. and Cai, M. (eds.), Geo-informatics and Oceanography. Journal of Coastal Research, Special Issue No. 105, pp. 51–55. Coconut Creek (Florida), ISSN 0749-0208.An ecologically clean small watershed of Qinba Mountain is important to protect this water source of the South–North Water Diversion Project and to reinforce the ability to achieve sustainable development. A solution project on engineering technology and management measures is presented to develop an ecologically clean small watershed and living water environment in the Qinba Mountain Area. Some technologies and integrated measures were presented for protection of the water source, sewage treatment in rural drainages, and protection against agricultural surface pollution. The methodology and results of the ecologically clean small watershed of Qinba Mountain could be applied to other sites around the world that are affected by these extreme conditions.
