Water infrastructure development is considered necessary to drive economic
growth in the Mekong region of mainland Southeast Asia. Yet the current
understanding of hydrological and flood pattern changes associated with
infrastructural development still contains several knowledge gaps, such as
the interactions between multiple drivers, which may hav...
Today, the Mekong Delta in the southern of Vietnam is home for 18 million people. The delta also accounts for more than half of the country’s food production and 80% of the exported rice. Due to the low elevation, it is highly susceptible to the risk of fluvial and coastal flooding. Although extreme floods often result in excessive damages and econ...
Study Region
Vietnamese Mekong Delta.
Study focus
This study investigates the trends of groundwater levels (GWLs), the memory effect of alluvial aquifers, and the response times between surface water and groundwater across the Vietnamese Mekong Delta (VMD). Trend analysis, auto- and cross-correlation, and time-series decomposition were applied wit...
Flooding is an imminent natural hazard threatening most river deltas, e.g. the Mekong Delta. An appropriate flood management is thus required for a sustainable development of the often densely populated regions. Recently, the traditional event-based hazard control shifted towards a risk management approach in many regions, driven by intensive resea...
The annual flood pulse of the Mekong River is crucial to sustain agriculture production, nutrition, and the livelihood of millions of people living in the Vietnamese part of the Mekong Delta (VMD). However, climate change impacts on precipitation, temperature and sea-level combined with land subsidence, upstream hydropower development, and water in...

Flooding is an imminent natural hazard threatening most river deltas, as e.g. the Mekong Delta. An appropriate flood management is thus required for a sustainable development of the often densely populated regions.

In this study we provide a numerical quantification of changes in flood hazard in the Vietnamese Mekong Delta as a result of dyke-development. Other important drivers to the alteration of delta flood hazard are also investigated e.g. tidal level. The findings of our study are substantial valuable for the decision-makers in Viet Nam to develop holis...
In the Vietnamese part of the Mekong Delta (VMD) the areas with three rice
crops per year have been expanded rapidly during the last 15 years.
Paddy-rice cultivation during the flood season has been made possible by
implementing high-dyke flood defenses and flood control structures. However,
there are widespread claims that the high-dyke system has...
Aquaculture development i.e. catfish farms at Vinh Thanh district, Can Tho in the last decades, had major contribution to the livelihoods and economic development of the region. On the other side, the untreated effluent from fish-ponds deteriorating the quality of surface waterways. This study aims (i) to evaluate the surface water quality of the c...

Dear all,
After running the topology validation for the landuse dataset of a single district (polygon), I found over 2000 topology errors "must not overlap" in the data. I am wondering if there is possibility to automate the error fixing procedure with ArcPy. Because at the end of the day, I have to process landuse data for 20 districts at minimum. Thus, it might take months by using error inspector and manualy fix one-by-one. Thank you very much for any help & suggestion.
Kind regards,
Triet
Hello everyone,
I am looking for publications quantifying climate change impacts on ocean saline, the Pacific ocean to be specific. Has anybody worked or being aware of research on this issue? I do greatly appreciate for your suggestion on such publications/projects.
