The 2010 China floods began in early May 2010.[1][2][3] Three hundred and ninety-two people died, and a further 232 people were reported missing as of June 30, 2010,[4][5] including 57 people in a landslide in Guizhou. Fifty-three of the deaths occurred from the flooding and landslides between May 31 and June 3,[6] and 266 deaths occurred between June 13 and June 29.[7] Four hundred and twenty four people were killed by the end of June,[4] including 42 from the Guizhou landslide; 277 more were killed and 147 were missing in the first two weeks of July,[8][9][10] bringing the death toll as of August 5 to 1,072.[11][12] A landslide in early August in Gansu killed at least 1,471 people and left 294 missing. In total, the flooding and landslides killed at least 3,185 people in China by August 31.[13] More than Шаблон:Nowrap people[13][14] in 28 provinces, municipalities, and regions,[15][11][4] especially the southern and central provinces and regions of Zhejiang, Fujian, Jiangxi, Hubei, Hunan, Guangdong, Guangxi, Chongqing Municipality, Gansu, Sichuan, and Guizhou, and the northeastern province of Jilin were affected, while at least Шаблон:Nowrap people[16] were evacuated because of the risk of flooding and landslides in the latter half of June.[17][18][19][20][21] By early August, over Шаблон:Nowrap people were evacuated,[15][11] and that number rose to 15.2 million by August 31.[13]

Millions lacked drinking water. A total of 1.36 million houses were destroyed[15][11] and more than Шаблон:Convert of crops were inundated,[16] while Шаблон:Convert of farmland had been completely destroyed by the end of June.[22] Dozens of rivers remained flooded, including the Pearl River in Guangdong province,[21] which had been affected by severe drought during the spring as its outflow was severely reduced.[23] The total damages from the floods were roughly 83.8 billion yuan as of June 27, 2010,[16] and over Шаблон:Nowrap yuan (Шаблон:Nowrap USD) by August 8.[15][11] By late August,Шаблон:Convert [13] of farmland were affected by the flooding, while Шаблон:Convert were completely destroyed.[15][4]

In late May 2010, heavy rainfall caused a train derailment in Jiangxi, killing at least 19 people, and the closure of the Shanghai-Kunming railway line for 24 hours due to a landslide.

Many major rivers in China, including the Yangtze, Yellow, and Songhua Rivers were flooded to dangerous levels. The Chinese Government allocated over Шаблон:Nowrap yuan for rescue and relief work.[11] The Jialing River, Han River, and Huai River surged higher than warning levels.[24]

The grim situation of the 2010 South China floods exceeded the levels of the 1998 Yangtze River floods.[25] The flooding attracted attention from the state leaders of the Chinese Government and the public, who brought aid to the victims of the flooding. The death toll from the floods continued to rise,[26] as floodwaters began to recede in some areas by the end of June.[27] Throughout the East Asian Monsoon season, the worst of the flooding shifted from Southwestern China to Central China by June and July and moved to Northern and Northeastern China by late July and August, leaving the southern provinces in a heat wave while the Northeastern and Northwestern provinces were continuously lashed by flooding rains.[28] Unusual climate patterns were linked to the persistent flooding, including an El Niño-like Modoki, jet stream patterns[29][30] (also possibly linked to low solar activity), deforestation worsening the landslides, and global warming.[31]

Guizhou Province

After experiencing severe drought, heavy rains triggered a landslide in Guizhou Province around 2:30 pm on June 28 that trapped 99 people in the village of Dazhai, Gangwu Township, Anshun. Ganwu received Шаблон:Convert of rain on June 27, a record for the township,[32] and the resulting landslide lasted two minutes and unleashed up to Шаблон:Convert of mud and rock, burying at least 37 buildings and homes in Dazhai.[33] Officials stated there was little hope for the survival of the buried victims, and the torrential rains were likely to continue.[17] The rains hampered rescue efforts in the search for survivors from the 38 families buried by the landslide.[34] Chinese Vice Premier Hui Liangyu urged the use of all resources to rescue any survivors.[35] The first body, a child, was found by rescue workers in the late afternoon of June 29.[36]

More than 1,100 rescue workers searched to find the remaining victims, including up to 30 children and infants, and eight of the original missing turned up alive.[37] By July 1, 10 bodies had been found at the site of the landslide, and 89 still missing and feared dead. At least 1,000 people were evacuated from the village after the landslide.[33] A total of 42 bodies were found by June 29, and the remaining 57 missing were presumed dead.[7]

Jiangxi Province

Seventeen levees were breached in Jiangxi and 33,900 water conservancy projects were damaged. The direct economic loss is Шаблон:Nowrap yuan. A Шаблон:Convert breach of the Changkai dike on the Fuhe River, which burst its banks on June 21 and again on June 23, in Luozhen Township, Fuzhou City, forced Шаблон:Nowrap people to evacuate.[38] The breach was repaired on June 27.[27] The local and provincial governments provided tents, quilts, blankets, clothing, and water dispensers to the affected residents.[38] The flood crest of the Gan River passed the city of Nanchang on June 23.[39]

Residents of the city of Ganzhou were protected from the flooding by drains built in the area during the Song Dynasty.[40]

Fujian Province

In Fujian, 400 victims of flooding were safely transferred and properly rehoused. Seventy-six people were killed, and 79 were missing from landslides in the province by June 21.[41][42] The village of Baozhuang was completely cut off for six days before rescue workers brought the residents to safety.[43] More than ten consecutive days of rain hit Nanping, and factories were destroyed. The number of people affected totaled 1.3 million, damages totaled Шаблон:Nowrap yuan, and 365,000 people were relocated.[27] Flooding destroyed a bridge in the province on July 7, travel was disrupted in 20 counties, and the town of Taining was completely underwater at one point.[44]

Guangxi Autonomous Region

Шаблон:Nowrap people in Guangxi were affected, with 37 deaths, 164.58 thousand hectares of crops affected, and 16,395 residential housings collapsed. The direct economic loss is about Шаблон:Nowrap yuan, of which Шаблон:Nowrap were agricultural losses.

On June 2, 42 people were killed in a series of landslides that hit Cenxi, Rong County, Teng County, Donglan County, and Fangchenggang City.[45][46]

Anhui Province

At least four million people have been affected in Anhui Province. 5,100 houses had collapsed, and a further 17,700 houses were damaged.[8]

Gansu Province

Шаблон:Main article Landslides in Zhugqu County, Gannan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture in Gansu Province, late in the night on August 7 buried Yueyuan Village, a village of 300 families, killing 1,435 people, and leaving 330 others missing.[47][48][49] The landslide buried half of Chengguan Township, the county seat, surrounding the village with water and destroying an area Шаблон:Convert long, Шаблон:Convert wide, and Шаблон:Convert deep before water levels receded. About 45,000 people were evacuated from the site, and 1,243 others[49] were rescued by the army and residents. Excavators and large rescue vehicles could not reach the scene because of landslides and floodwaters. Premier Wen Jiabao arrived in the county at Шаблон:Nowrap on August 8. A power outage following the slide covered two-thirds of the county. The Bailong River was dammed by the landslide and started to overflow around Шаблон:Nowrap on August 8, creating a landslide lake Шаблон:Convert long, Шаблон:Convert wide and Шаблон:Convert deep, holding Шаблон:Nowrap m3 of water and submerging parts of the town, forcing 19,000 people downstream. Demolition experts started working on the lake to release some of its water. The death toll continued to rise, and more rain fell in the area afterward, hampering relief efforts.[50][51][52] A rare national day of mourning was held in China to remember the victims of the Gansu mudslide on August 15.[53] There was speculation that the approximately 1,700 people made homeless by the landslides and relocated would have to spend the winter in tents.[54]

On August 13, Шаблон:Convert of torrential rain fell overnight and landslides hit Longnan City. As of August 17, there were 36 deaths and 23 missings. Evacuees totaling 122,835 were evacuated to emergency shelters, and 295 people were injured by the mudslides and landslides.[55] In Tianshui, at least four people died.[56][57] Over 10,600 people were evacuated from Longnan.[14]

Sichuan Province

The flooding affected 31.81 million people in Sichuan, including Luzhou city's 95 townships. The direct economic loss of Luzhou was about Шаблон:Nowrap yuan. The total direct economic loss was about 6.89 billion yuan, and 25,000 homes were damaged in the flooding in August.[47]

A landslide in the village of Wangong, Hanyuan County, left 21 people missing after burying 58 homes on July 27 and forcing 4,000 to evacuate.[58][59]

In Mianzhu and Deyang, heavy rains started on August 12 and landslides hit on August 13, killing five people and trapping 500 more in an area devastated by the recent drought and the earthquake in 2008.[56][57] Sixteen people were dead after the flooding and mudslides since August 13. Sixty-six were declared missing by August 20,[47] including at least 38 in Wenchuan County. Ten thousand people were forced to evacuate.[60] Further landslides killed 18 people, injured nine, and left four missing in Wenchuan and Qingchuan County.[61] Landslides created a flood lake in Yingxing Township, and floodwaters Шаблон:Convert deep covered a Шаблон:Convert stretch of the only highway that links Wenchuan and Chengdu.[14]

In Guanghan, a train traveling from Xi'an to Kunming along the Baoji-Chengdu Railway derailed after floods washed away a section of a bridge on August 19. Two carriages of the train were washed into the river after dangling for a few minutes, but all passengers were safely rescued.[54]

Hunan Province

People in 14 cities in Hunan were affected, and 25,300 houses collapsed at the time of the report. The province experienced its worst flooding since 2003.[16] In late June, floodwaters threatened the major city of Changsha, as water levels rose Шаблон:Convert above danger level, the highest in a decade, and the third-highest since 1953.[62]

Hubei Province

In Hubei, the Han River at Wuhan experienced its worst flooding in twenty years, as officials continued sandbagging efforts along the Han and Yangtze Rivers in the city and checked reservoirs.[63]

Three Gorges Dam

By July 20, the Yangtze River at the Three Gorges Dam experienced its highest river discharge since the dam was built. The dam's outflow released Шаблон:Nowrap of water, with Шаблон:Nowrap of the river flow held back behind the dam, after water levels in the Reservoir rose Шаблон:Convert overnight.[64] The reservoir water levels peaked at Шаблон:Convert meters on the morning of July 23, whereas the "alarm level" of the reservoir was at Шаблон:Convert. All ferry service in the Reservoir was halted as total flow rate exceeded Шаблон:Nowrap, although the crest of the flooding passed the dam by July 24.[24] A second peak in the river arrived at the dam on July 28,[58] when the peak flow from the dam was a record 56,000 m3/s.[63]

By early August, a thick layer of garbage covering Шаблон:Convert and Шаблон:Convert deep, including tree branches, plastic bottles, and domestic waste, had been swept into the reservoir since July and threatened to clog the shipping locks at the wall of the dam. Workers removed 3,000 tons of garbage daily, and the company responsible for the dam paid for Шаблон:Convert of garbage to be removed annually.[65]

Henan Province

In the city of Luoyang, Henan, a bridge on the Yi River collapsed as onlookers crowded it to watch the flooding, 51 people were killed with 15 missings.[65] Flooding also threatened the Longmen Grottoes, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in the city.[58]

Sixty-two thousand houses were destroyed and 193,000 damaged, while direct economic losses reached Шаблон:Nowrap yuan.[15][69]

On July 28, several thousand barrels from two chemical plants in Jilin City were washed into the Songhua River by the floods. The barrels contained toxic chemicals like trimethylsilyl chloride and hexamethyldisiloxane, with each barrel holding about Шаблон:Convert. There were reports that some barrels exploded in contact with water.[70] The Dahe Dam in Changshan Township, Huadian City, was breached on July 28, spilling Шаблон:Convert of water, destroying five villages downstream and leaving 40 people dead or missing.[68] By late afternoon on August 1, 6,387 barrels had been retrieved from the river. Officials stated that tests showed the water in the river remained safe to drink. Three soldiers of the People's Liberation Army in Jilin drowned after working to remove the barrels and control the flooding.[71]

In the city of Baishan, near the border with North Korea, an island of garbage covering Шаблон:Convert blocked water flow upstream from the Yunfeng Dam after it became clogged at a bridge. Forty truckloads of garbage were collected, and the remaining garbage could fill 200 more. In Tonghua, 300,000 residents were left without tap water after the flooding damaged major water pipelines that were subsequently repaired by August 4.[65] In addition, 15,702 residents from Liuhe County in Tonghua were evacuated to safer locations by August 5.[72] Unprecedented record levels of flooding hit the Yalu River, where shipping was suspended, and the Tumen River both bordering North Korea, while Yanbian Korean Autonomous Prefecture in the province suffered its worst flooding in one hundred years.[73]

In Linjiang City, bordering North Korea on the Yalu, three townships were cut off by floods and mudslides, and 38,000 residents were relocated. Between July 31 and August 4, 68,000 residents were without drinking water due to flooding, until it was restored at Шаблон:Nowrap on August 4 but the water was not potable until approximately August 7. Fire trucks were mobilized to provide drinking water from nearby springs.[72]

In Antu County, 70 homes in one village were destroyed by flooding, and a mountain valley was submerged by floods Шаблон:Convert deep, forcing 570 families to evacuate. Damages from the floods in the county exceeded Шаблон:Nowrap yuan, equal to about 5.7 times the county government's revenue in 2009.[71] In central Jilin, Шаблон:Convert of rain fell in 24 hours after August 4, while Шаблон:Convert fell in a few hours in Lishu on August 5. Seven of the 25 medium and large reservoirs in Jilin City were forced to discharge, including Fengman Reservoir, the largest reservoir on the Songhua, at a rate of Шаблон:Convert. A 24-hour monitoring system was set up on many reservoirs.[72]

Workers started repairing fifty-one damaged small reservoirs and fortifying riverbanks in the province after the Songhua River surged to twice as high as normal. Premier Wen Jiabao visited Yongji County during the first week of August.[74]

Other areas of Northern and Northeastern China received flooding rains, including Liaoning, Heilongjiang, Nei Mongol, Hebei, and Shandong.[67]

Liaoning Province

Flooding on the Yalu River in Liaoning affected the city of Dandong in early August. Provincial authorities suspended shipping on the river[73] and more than 40,000 people were evacuated from the city.[75] Heavy rains brought shipping to a halt by August 19,[76] and on August 21 the Yalu breached its banks. About 250,000 people in northeastern China were evacuated, including 94,000 in Dandong, where four people were killed and one missing[61] in Kuandian Manchu Autonomous County.[77] The rain and flooding cut rail services and destroyed more than 200 houses.[78] At least 1,200 people were trapped by flood water. Dandong on the Chinese side and Sinuiju on the North Korean side was affected. Much of North Korea's trade with the world depends on Sinuiju, a vital lifeline for the country.[78] The river's flow hit a peak of 27,000 m3/s on August 21, flooding 44 townships and causing 158 embankment breaches. Rainfall up to Шаблон:Convert in 24 hours was expected on August 23.[79] Water levels at one station in Dandong rose Шаблон:Convert above the warning level, the second-highest measurement since 1934.[77] Floods also covered roads and farms in Tieling City, affecting 20,000 people.[80] In Huludao City, ten workers were stranded on an island created by flooding before being rescued, after China National Highway 102 was disrupted by floodwaters.[72] Another series of floods left eight dead and one missing in Dandong by August 27.[76] A developing tropical storm was forecast to bring more heavy rains to the Yalu River region by August 28.[81]

Heilongjiang Province

The State Flood Control and Drought Relief headquarters warned that flooding and landslides were expected to continue in the Songliao Basin (surrounding the Daqing Field) near the Songhua River in Heilongjiang Province.[74]

Yunnan Province

Malong County in Yunnan was hit by torrential rainfall lasting seven hours, completely filling a nearby reservoir, which then submerged the county. Water over roads was as deep as Шаблон:Convert. The flooding killed one person and injured 165 others, and 55,000 people were affected in the county while 6,000 houses were destroyed.[27]

In Puladi Township, Gongshan, a landslide in June killed 11 people at a hydropower station construction site. On August 18, another landslide containing Шаблон:Convert of mud and rock[61] cut off a town after roads and power lines were severed, killing 29 people and leaving 63 missing,[77] as well as injuring 25 people, 9 of them seriously. Some of the people missing were workers for an iron mine. The chances of survival for the missing people were said to be low as they had been trapped for over three days. The new landslide was about Шаблон:Convert wide, and buried 21 houses and 10 trucks. The slide also dammed up parts of the Salween River near the border with Myanmar, causing water levels at its upper reaches to rise Шаблон:Convert.[82]

Qinghai Province

Torrential rains killed 25 people in Qinghai in July and left three more missings, affecting 41,000 people.[10][44]

The Wenquan Reservoir in the province, Шаблон:Convert upstream from Golmud, was overfilled with Шаблон:Convert of water, while it was only designed to hold Шаблон:Convert, creating a water level Шаблон:Convert above the warning line.[22] Soldiers and rescue workers built drainage channels to pipe the water away from the reservoir, which would have flooded Golmud with water over Шаблон:Convert deep if its dam burst and the channels are designed to release Шаблон:Convert of water per second. More than 11,300 people were evacuated from the city.[83]

Hainan Province

Starting from September 30, Hainan Province received the worst flooding in half a century. By October 7, the flood killed one, left three missing, and affected 1.65 million people in 16 cities and counties.[84]

Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region

By August, heavy rains and snow melt in Xinjiang caused water levels in the region's 13 major rivers to rise above danger levels. In Aksu Prefecture, roads were cut off and bridges destroyed, while 1,000 people became trapped in the mountainous areas. On August 1, helicopters rescued 118 trapped people and delivered relief goods to the remaining residents.[71]
