Decoding the drivers of bank erosion on the Mekong River: the roles of the Asian monsoon, tropical storms and snow melt
We evaluate links between climate and simulated river bank erosion for one of the world's largest rivers, the Mekong. We employ a process-based model to reconstruct multi-decadal time series of bank erosion at study sites within the Mekong's two main hydrological response zones, defining a...
