The project conducted comprehensive studies on the multi-dimensional hydraulic roles of the Great Lake in flood management and mitigation in the Lower Mekong Delta. The key objectives were to analyze water balance in the Cambodian floodplain, establish discharge rating curves for tributaries and streams, study flood water movement between mainstream and floodplain, and perform hydraulic modeling. It’s findings and analyses contributed to a better understanding of the hydraulic behavior of the Great Lake and its role in flood management. The establishment of discharge rating curves and water balance studies provided crucial information for flood forecasting and mitigation strategies in the Lower Mekong Delta, improving flood resilience and disaster management in the region.
