5 Impacts and Vulnerability<br />
5.1 Activities Conducted<br />
o Study of impact of climate change on hydrological regime in lower Mekong River<br />
region.<br />
o Study of impact of climate change on rain-fed rice productivity in lower Mekong<br />
River region.<br />
o Assessment on vulnerability and adaptation of rain-fed farmer in the lower<br />
Mekong River region to impact of climate change.<br />
5.2 Study of impact of climate change on hydrological regime in lower Mekong River<br />
region<br />
5.2.1 Description of Scientific Methods and Data<br />
This research focus the study of impact of climate change on hydrological regime<br />
on Mekong River’s tributaries in Lao PDR and Thailand by using climate data from the<br />
climate scenario, which was simulated by CCAM climate model, as input into Variable<br />
Infiltration Capacity (VIC) hydrological model to conduct high resolution hydrological<br />
simulation.<br />
The tributaries of Mekong River under this study are as follows: (also see Figure<br />
19)<br />
• Lao PDR: Nam Ou, Nam Khan, Nam Nhiep, Nam Ngum, Nam Theun, Nam<br />
Kading, Se Bang Fai, Se Bang Hieng, Se Done and Se Kong<br />
• Thailand: Nam Songkram, Nam Chi and Nam Mun<br />
