A study on the flood control of the Mekong Delta

메콩강하구의 홍수조절

Flood control of the Mekong delta should be developed over time for rural as well as urban areas. The hydraulic modelling effort is aimed an investigating flow distribution and water level. For the flood control study the flood model made with the VRSAP program is used. Concerning future improvement of the models it is recommended to improve the quality of water level and discharge, extend the number of the measuring locations needed for input for the models, systematically review and analyze future measurement campaigns in order to obtain better understanding of the complex hydraulic aspects, verify and update the topographical data used to model the rivers and cannals, carry out detailed calibration and verification of the models on water levels, discharges etc.
