Abstract
The complexity of the Mekong River Basin (MRB) has been presented in three different sections focusing on various aspects on the MRB ecohydrological system. Section 1 starts with the physical processes of climate, hydrology, sediment, aquatic biodiversity, changes of land cover/land use, and water related hazards like floods and droughts. In section 2, the book focuses on the water resource management and development and collaboration in the upper MRB, with a special focus on hydro-power development. The last section is dedicated to the Vietnamese Mekong Delta (VMD) crossing typical environmental problems like water pollution, river morphological changes, land subsidence, salinity intrusion, coastal erosion, as well as livelihood and climate change adaptation, and agriculture transformation.
