We employed Mike21 for 2D numerical calculation of water demand and water replenishment scheme of Huixian wetland in the condition of multi-year average water level. By obtaining the correlation of internal water level between Liangfeng Station and Huixian wetland, we identified that the multi-year average water level of Huixian wetland is 148.86 m. Under this water level, the ecological water demand and environmental water demand of the wetland are 3.87×106 m3 and 3.67×106 m3 respectively, resulting in an overall water demand of 3.87×106 m3. Through analysis of surface water system, we determined the water replenishment route from the Huixian River through the ancient Guiliu Canal at a flow rate of 5 m3/s. Simulation results demonstrate that the water surface rate of the wetland remains within the normal range after replenishment. %U http://ckyyb.crsri.cn/EN/10.11988/ckyyb.20220722
