Department of Water Resources for Pastoral Areas

2019-07-02

Founded in 1979, IWRPA is located in Huhhot City. It is the main body of the Ecological Research Center of Water and Soil Conservation in Grassland Area of the Ministry of Water Resources of China. IWRPA mainly focuses on the prominent problems such as water shortage in pastoral areas, ecological environment delicacy and relative backwardness of socio-economic development. With the protection of grassland ecology and the sustainable development of pastoral areas as its objectives, IWRPA is mainly engaged in the research of the basic theory of water resources application technology, integrated application and extension.

IWRPA owns the experimental center which has got China Metrology Accreditation and a monitoring and experiment base of water and soil conservation and ecology of grassland. The experimental center conducts the testing of wind power, solar power and pump performance as well as the monitoring and analysis of the physical and chemical indexes of water, soil, grass and nutrients.

TWRPA has four sections with 131 staff members. Among them, there are 7 professor-level senior engineers, 31 senior engineers and 40 engineers.
