Project's information

Project's title Application of modern models to assess, prevention and reduce damage to the environmental impact of the estuaries, lagoons close/open phenomenon for serve the sustainable development strategy of the socio-economic, environmental protection in the South Central Vietnamese Coast (Da Nang - Binh Thuan).
Project leader’s name Dr. Le Dinh Mau
Project duration 01/01/2010 - 01/01/2016
Project’s budget 1,400,000,000 VND (One billion four hundred million VND)
Classify Fair
Goal and objectives of the project

- Determine the status quo, causes and mechanisms of the phenomenon of closed / open estuaries, lagoons in the South Central coast (SCC)
- Assess the environmental impacts and reduce damage to the environmental impact of the phenomenon of closed / open estuaries, lagoons. Serve sustainable development strategy of the socioeconomic, environmental protection in the South Central coast (SCC).

Main results

+ Scientific results:
1) Provide the database on natural conditions, socioeconomic relating to phenomenon of close/open estuaries, lagoons in the South Central Coast; status quo of close/open estuaries, lagoons; environmental quality status, ecology in areas close/open, the lagoon estuary on the South Central coast; volatility diagrams of estuaries, lagoons.
2) Determination of the status quo, causes and mechanisms of the phenomenon of open/close the estuaries, lagoons in South Central coastal. Special, the phenomenon of open/close in O Loan lagoon (Phu Yen);
3) Environmental impact assessment of the phenomenon of closed/open estuaries, lagoons;
4) Recommended prevention and damage reduction of phenomenon of close/open estuaries, lagoons;
5) The study results also showed that the formulation database to control the phenomenon of close/open estuaries, lagoon as the basis for alert, recommend people, enterprises with suitable adaptations in production, business and minimize the damage that have not been adequate attention.

+ Applied results:
Recommended options for prevention and minimize the damage caused by environmental impact of the phenomenon of open/close, sedimentation of estuaries, lagoons in the South Central Coast.

Novelty and actuality and scientific meaningfulness of the results

In addition to contributing to clarify status quo, causes, mechanisms, the environmental impact of the close /open estuaries, lagoons and propose measures to minimize the damage. Tasks also provides comprehensive information on the natural conditions related: geology, geomorphology, meteorology, hydrology, dynamics, sediment, environmental, human impact in South Central Coast and access, exploitation and the use of modern models.

Research region

Suggestion to apply the measures to reduce the damages in case study areas. Applications for the Department of Science and Technology, Natural Resources and Environment, Agriculture and Rural Development of the provinces from Da Nang to Binh Thuan. Especially in the area of O Loan lagoon for the Department of Science and Technology, Natural Resources and Environment, Agriculture and Rural Development of Phu Yen Province.

Recommendations

In recent years, most of the estuary area are conducted many projects are process to drug and mine salty for export on south central coast. This activity contributes to clearing the canals, increasing water exchange, reduce environmental pollution levels. However, they increase the salt, increase the impact of wave energy, reduce crop yields and enhance the process of coastal erosion, river bank ... Therefore, it is need to have project that assessment environment impacts of salty sand mining operation for export on the estuaries of south central coast.
