Tien river and Hau river are two main
branches of Cuu Long River which have hydrology regime directly effected by
climate change and sea level rise. The flow of the dry season in the Tien and
Hau rivers plays a key
role in the socio-economic development of the Mekong Delta, especially in
agricultural production. The study aims to provide useful information in
socio-economic development planning and water use strategies for managers,
planners and policymarkers of the provinces/cities in the Mekong Delta. This
paper presents the study results in changing of dry season flows in Tien river and Hau river under the
impacts of climate change in order to propose measures for protection,
substainable development and water security.
KEYWORDS
