Book Synopsis The Mekong River Basin by : Hong Quan Nguyen
Download or read book The Mekong River Basin written by Hong Quan Nguyen and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2024-04-22 with total page 674 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Mekong River Basin: Ecohydrological Complexity from Catchment to Coast, Volume Three presents real facts, data and predictions for quantifying human-induced changes throughout the Mekong watershed, including its estuaries and coasts, and proposes solutions to decrease or mitigate the negative effect and enable sustainable development. This is the first work to link socio–ecological interaction study over the whole Mekong River basin through the lens of ecohydrology. Each chapter is written by a leading expert, with coverage on climate change, groundwater, land use, flooding drought, biodiversity and anthropological issues. Human activities are enormous in the whole watershed and are still increasing throughout the catchment, with severe negative impacts on natural resources are emerging. Among these activities, hydropower dams, especially a series of 11 dams in China, are the most critical as they generate massive changes throughout the system, including in the delta and to the livelihoods of millions of people and they threaten sustainability. Presents an extensive collection of eco-hydrological changes in the river basin driven by both nature and anthropological factors Provides state of the art modeling, data analysis methodologies for complex socio-ecological complexity applied in the Mekong river basin Includes specific cases of ecohydrology in the river basin, especially from the Mekong delta

Book Synopsis Integrated Flood and Drought Mitigation Mesures and Strategies. Case Study: The Mun River Basin, Thailand by : Saowanit Prabnakorn
Download or read book Integrated Flood and Drought Mitigation Mesures and Strategies. Case Study: The Mun River Basin, Thailand written by Saowanit Prabnakorn and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2020-02-07 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Floods and droughts are climate extremes that account for more than 80% of people affected by natural disasters worldwide. Both catastrophes co-exist in many river basins, for example, the Mun River Basin in Thailand, which is selected as the study area. Approximately 90% of rice cultivation here is rain-fed, and that results in the lowest yields in the country, making many farmers persist in poverty. This study aims to assess floods and droughts and their impacts on agriculture at the basin scale. For flooding, the hydrologic and hydraulic models were developed to produce the first completed flood hazard maps at the Mun River Basin. Droughts in the basin were determined by the proposed drought risk assessment scheme that combines all three key components (hazard, exposure, and vulnerability). Subsequently, the study attempts to tackle both floods and droughts simultaneously and sustainably by using integrated measures and strategies. If the problems caused by flood and drought climate extremes are solved, this will ensure adequate food availability and alleviate poverty in the basin. Furthermore, the study shows that a holistic approach to simultaneously solving both problems is efficient as most water will be utilized to benefit agriculture, the primary sector that feeds a growing population.
Book Synopsis The Mekong Delta System by : Fabrice G. Renaud
Download or read book The Mekong Delta System written by Fabrice G. Renaud and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-06-01 with total page 466 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book about the Mekong Delta presents a unique collection of state-of-the-art contributions by international experts from different scientific disciplines about the characteristics and pressing water-related challenges of the Mekong Delta in Vietnam. The Mekong Delta belongs to one of the areas, which are to expect the largest challenges concerning environmental change and climate change induced sea level rise . The Delta acts as the “rice bowl” of Southeast Asia and is home to over 17 Million people, who need to cope with ecologic as well as socio-economic changes linked to the rapid economic development of the country. Annual floods, severe droughts, salt water intrusion, degrading water quality, tropical cyclones, hydrologic changes due to hydropower projects in the upstream of the Mekong, coastal erosion, and the loss of biodiversity are some of the problems in the region. Heterogeneous resource management responsibilities, and the fact that the Mekong – and thus also the Delta – is influenced by six countries aggravate the situation. Integrated water resources management and fostered cooperation and information exchange are pressing needs for the sustainable development of the Delta.

Book Synopsis Floods and Farmers by : Cong Huu Pham
Download or read book Floods and Farmers written by Cong Huu Pham and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on 2012 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Mekong Delta of Vietnam is extremely vulnerable to floods and, therefore, the establishment of dike systems is generally considered an appropriate approach to flood control. Based on intensive field work in the heart of the Delta, this dissertation investigates current dike planning practices, as well as its implementation at district and commune levels. The research reveals numerous shortcomings with regard to planning and shows that the dike system also produces adverse negative impacts on the ecosystems and livelihoods. Dissertation.

Download or read book Contested Waterscapes in the Mekong Region written by François Molle and published by Earthscan. This book was released on 2012 with total page 449 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The water resources of the Mekong river catchment area, from China, through Thailand, Cambodia and Laos to Vietnam, are increasingly contested. Governments, companies and banks are driving new investment in roads, dams, diversions, irrigation schemes, navigation facilities, power plants and other emblems of conventional "development." Their plans and interventions pose multiple burdens and risks to the livelihoods of millions of people dependent on wetlands, floodplains, fisheries and aquatic resources.
