%X Yang C. T. introduced the concept of the theory of minimum rate of energy dissipation to the study of natural strean systems. So far the theory has 'been efficiently applied by Yang and others for the determination of the stability of several rivers. In this paper, the variational principle basis of the theory is reintroduced and applied to the river regulation. We assume that the minimum unit stream power is the same before and after the river regulation engineering, so that an equation of hydraulic geometry is given, that is in which h1 is the average depth before regulation engineering, h2 is the regulated depth, Bi is the width of river before regulation engineering, B2 is the regulated width, Qi is the regulated discharge, and Q2 is the discharge at the discharge at the regulated level after regulation engineering. The equation is applied to the river regulation engineering of Dongping River in he South China for predicting its regulated depths and navigable depths. The comparisons between measured and estimated navigable depths show that the equation is effective.
