As an important large-scale river-connected lake in the middle–lower reaches of the Yangtze River, Poyang Lake has complex interactions with the main stream of the river. The full operation of the Three Gorges Dam (TGD) on the main stream of the Yangtze River has caused substantial changes in the relationship between the river and the lake, and the hydrological and hydrodynamic regime of Poyang Lake have also shown obvious variations in response. This study constructed a 2D hydrodynamic model of Poyang Lake based on GPU acceleration to realize a long-term simulation of the water flow evolution of Poyang Lake. By comparing the differences in water level at Hukou station between 20-year periods before and after TGD construction, the impact of TGD construction on Poyang Lake was characterized. Results showed that in comparison with the values for the pre-dam period, the water level of Poyang Lake decreased by 0.4–2.0 m and the flow velocity increased by 0.01–0.04 m/s in the post-dam period, and both showed a trend of reduction spatially from the north toward the south. Additionally, the inundation area of the lake decreased by 9 %, the 10-m characteristic water level at Xingzi station advanced by 27 days, the duration of low water extended by 37 days, and in typical dry, normal, and wet years, the time of occurrence of low water advanced. Moreover, TGD construction has aggravated the conditions of Poyang Lake in the dry season. The findings of this study are of great importance in relation to refining the spatiotemporal distribution characteristics of habitats, and supporting further investigation of the changes in the aquatic ecosystem of Poyang Lake under TGD regulation.
