Ecological water requirements ( EWRs) are the important guarantee for the health of river ecosystem. With the rapid development of social economy,the health of Hunhe River ecosystem is threatened seriously. The key study area of EWRs is the middle and lower reaches of Hunhe River,which is influenced by the exploitation and utilization of water resources. The monthly guaranteed frequency method and fish habitat method are applied to calculate EWRs with different grades in the middle and lower reaches of Hunhe River. The rationality of EWRs results are verified though Tennant method. Finally,the minimum,medium and ideal grade of EWRs in the middle and lower reaches of Hunhe River are confirmed,and the characteristics of instream EWRs are analyzed.
