7 Summary Since 1995, the flows in Wet season at Chiang Saen to Vientiane showed significantly declined comparing to the pre-dam period. While, the Dry Season flow at Chiang Saen to Vientiane showed significantly increasing. However, it is found that there is no significant change/affect to the flow regime from Pakse to Kratie during the wet and dry seasons. The rainfall found essentially varied from place to place, referred to the topographical features of the watershed catchments in the LMB The potential changes of hydrological regime at Chiang Saen to Vientiane might be influencing by the reservoir operation on Mekong-Lancang in China. However, there was no significant influent to the further downstream of Pakse and Kratie.

The dots outside of the 2 nd box are considered as historically extreme flood & low-flow years 17
18 Conclusion in Wet Season From Chiang Saen to Vientiane during the 2014 wet season was characterized as significantly below the normal year (Low Flow), which could be partly attributed inflow at upstream (Hydro-power Operation.) 2. The flows at Pakse to Kratie were reached to the maximum levels during the early wet season (Jun-July) which influencing by the heavy rainfall and inflow from theirs tributaries. However, the flow was gradually decreased even below long term average from Aug till end of the wet season. 3. The inflow into the Tonle Sap Lake was high in early July, but drastically decreased from Aug onward. The volume of tonle sap lake in this wet season found lower then long term average condition. It leads to the significant low outflow. Chaing Saen Nong Khai Pakse Kratie 18

21 Provided Information by China on the Dry Season Flow 2015 Based on a request from MRC Secretariat referred to very high frequency and critically flow fluctuation in upper part of LMB (Chiang Saen to Vientiane), China provided additional information on the upstream hydropower dam operation in Dry Season Flow 2015.
22 Monthly Accumulated Rainfall Distribution over MB May: mm (2014) : 0-60 mm (2015) The total acc. rainfall in 2015 is lower decreasing than 2014 during the Dry Season in May

27 Conclusion in Dry Season 1. The flows from Chiang Sean to Vientiane were significantly fluctuated higher than the long term average; even though no rainfall contribution. Chaing Saen Nong Khai 2. The flow from Pakse to Kratie in December 2014 was higher than its long term average due to unseasonal rainfall in November 2014 and the influent inflows from upstream reaches. 3. Further sharing of hydrological Information in the region a comprehensive technical study is required. The process can be assessed in detail such the impact of upstream inflow and practical management and mitigation measures at downstream Pakse Kratie 27
28 Conclusion Tonle Sap Lake and Mekong Delta 1. The Tonle Sap Lake was not filled-in extensively by inflow from Mekong River and its catchment inflows during the wet season. Thus, the volume of the great lake was lower than it therefore leads to the low outflow which influent to flow condition below Phnom Penh. 2. Based on the low outflow from the great lake, It is expected that the flow in Mekong Delta during the early dry season of 2015 will be in the low flow condition, but the flow will be raised once it effects by rainfall in the areas.

31 Comments on the Impact flows With the 2 big Dams of the cascade Xiaowan and Nuozhadu (Int l RIVERS info), operated in 2010 and 2012 the downstream impact were observed as follows: The fluctuated water levels at Chiang Saen down to Vientiane The increased in water levels in Dry Season could reduce the exposed riverbank area for river bank gardens (vegetable gardens ) at downstream part (Chiang Khong.) The decreased of water levels/flows in Wet Season (fill storage and regulation reservoirs). This can be caused the reduction of floodplain area and flow of nutrients from flood waters. The deduction of sediment be cause cased river bank erosion also ect Saline intrusion into the Mekong Delta will increase with flow regimes that decrease wet-season flows.
32 Preliminary conclusion on Future Changes The Impact of river flow hydrology depends the flow phenomenon, including the Climate Change (rainfall pattern and high temperature), Hydropower Operation bases on national regulation. The Impact of reservoir operation can be resulted in: Decreased in Flood Peak Delay of Flood Peak Increased in Dry Season Flow Shorten of Flood Season Reduced downstream of flood duration in the floodplain and the Mekong Delta Therefore apply for Hydrological and Hydraulic Modelling combine with Climate Change Model are necessary The affect of Sediment load transport and Salinity Intrusion should be including for the next analyses.
