Long-term sediment decline causes ongoing shrinkage of the Mekong megadelta, Vietnam
Since the 1990s the Mekong River delta has suffered a large decline in sediment supply causing coastal erosion, following catchment disturbance through hydropower dam construction and sand extraction. However, our new geological reconstruction of 2500-years of delta shoreline changes show that serio...
