Development of cooperative research on assessment of climate change impacts on water resources of Vietnam-China transboundary river basins
Main Article Content
Abstract
Abstract. Vietnam-Chinese transboundary river basins play an important role in socio-economic
development for both Vietnam and China. The cooperative research on assessment of climate
change impact on water resources is necessary in order to maintain and develop water resources,
exploit and consume effectively, protect environment and prevent disasters on transboundary river
basins. The problems have been paid the attention by scientists and agencies of both countries.
This report presents the expressions of climate change impacts on water resources on VietnamChina transboundary river basins and suggest cooperative content and methodology o f the
research.
