Vulnerability Assessment of Water Resources for Ba River under Climate Change

Abstract

The content of this article introduces of the research result to vulnerability indicator of water resources for Ba river basin under the climate change. The findings showed that vulnerability indicator water resources in the basin is relatively high at present (VI = 0,585), Future plans for 2020, the future have climate change, the future climate change but had integrated then the vulnerability indicator of water resource for Ba river basin increased suddenly and decreased when the process of integrating climate change had implemented, which are 0.701, 0.719 and 0.575. The findings from evaluating the vulnerability indicator provide compelling evidences that the water resources in the Ba river basin are facing a significant decline in the future, which the main causes are fishing pressure, using water resource but haven't effective management measures; restrictions on the management capacity to water resources; solutions to minimize fragmentation of water resources in the basin not appropriate. Therefore, it is necessary to integrated climate change on the use and management of the water resources in the Ba river basin now.
