Mapping the solution space for local adaptation under global change: A test of concept for the Vietnamese Mekong delta
Physical and societal systems limit adaptation options to environmental changes. • Our new method quantifies adaptation limits through mapping solution spaces. • Method supports exploring adaptation pathways under physical and societal change. • We assess adaptation feasibility, effectiveness, limitations and opportunities. • We illustrate this for Vietnamese Mekong Delta coastal flood adaptation options. Current and projected environmental chang…
Sedimentation-enhancing strategies for sustainable deltas: An integrated socio-biophysical framework
Coastal river deltas, home to hundreds of millions of people due to their abundant natural resources, face intense internal and external pressure from human activities, which threaten to degrade essential systems vital to delta functioning. A key biophysical challenge for deltas is relative sea level rise, which enhances salinity intrusion, flooding, and land loss. Although sedimentation-enhancing strategies (SESs) that use natural delta processe…
Global change scenarios in coastal river deltas and their sustainable development implications
Deltas play a critical role in the ambition to achieve global sustainable development given their relatively large shares in population and productive croplands, as well as their precarious low-lying position between upstream river basin development and rising seas. The large pressures on these systems risk undermining the persistence of delta societies, economies, and ecosystems. We analyse possible future development in 49 deltas around the glo…
Projections of declining fluvial sediment delivery to major deltas worldwide in response to climate change and anthropogenic stress
Deltas are resource rich, low-lying areas where vulnerability to flooding is exacerbated by natural and anthropogenically induced subsidence and geocentric sea-level rise, threatening the large populations often found in these settings. Delta ‘drowning’ is potentially offset by deposition of sediment on the delta surface, making the delivery of fluvial sediment to the delta a key balancing control in offsetting relative sea-level rise, provided t…
