Editat de Edward Park, Ho Huu Loc, Dung Duc Tran
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 22 noi 2024
The Mekong Delta Environmental Research Guidebook, Volume Four comprehensively covers the Mekong Delta and presents new evidence on unsolved environmental issues. Key experts from around the world offer suggestions for the implementation of more effective mitigation and adaptation measures, especially in the context of climate change and upstream hydropower dam development. This book will help guide students and scientists, both juniors and seniors in their journey of the Mekong Delta Environmental Research, by presenting them with all the necessary information and detailed case studies for a more in-depth understanding of each issue so they can make informed decisions.

  • Presents a multi-scale viewpoint about the Mekong Delta from a global, to regional and local scale so that readers will gain a more holistic understanding of the issue from the root cause to solutions
  • Includes case-studies as empirical evidence to help researchers implement more effective mitigation and adaptation measures
  • Offers the most updated knowledge on strategies in halting environmental pressures, i.e., halting sinking delta and salinity intrusion
