This paper applies the principles of water-use accounts, developed in the first of the
series, to the Niger River basin in West Africa. The Niger Basin covers 10 countries, and
rises in the highlands of southern Guinea near the border with Sierra Leone just 240
km inland from the Atlantic Ocean, ...

Water-use accounts in CPWF basins: Simple water-use accounting of the Niger Basin
The Mekong Basin Focal Project aims were to assess water use, water productivity and
water poverty in the basin, and analyse the opportunities and risks of change in water
management that influences water poverty.
The main issue facing the Lower Mekong is not water availability (except for season...

The report aims to provide critical input to the Mekong River Commission's (MRC) regional Climate Change and Adaptation Initiative (CCAI) which was launched shortly after the formulation of this project. The CCAI is a collaborative regional initiative designed to address the shared climate change...

There is growing concern about the potential effects of climate change on the natural resources of the Lower Mekong River Basin (LMB). It is therefore no surprise that climate change adaptation has become one of the focal points of current development discussions in the region. Here we examine th...

We assessed the potential impact of climate change on the yield of rainfed rice in the lower Mekong Basin and evaluated some adaptation options, using a crop growth simulation model. Future climate projections are based on IPCC SRES A2 and B2 scenarios as simulated by ECHAM4 global climate model ...

Impact of climate change on rainfed rice and options for adaptation in the lower Mekong Basin
A crop growth simulation model was used to study the impact of climate change for the period 2010-2050 on water productivity of rainfed rice. In general, the results suggest that water productivity of rainfed rice may increase significantly in the upper basin in Laos and Thailand and may decrease...
