Short summary

Water resources assessment in China can be classified as: comprehensive water resources assessment, annual water resources assessment, and industrial project water resources assessment. For the water resources prediction in China usually the monthly runoff prediction is used, in most low flow seasons, the flow recession curve is commonly used, in the humid regions the rainfall-runoff ensemble prediction has been widely applied, the conditional probability method was also applied.
