An outstanding feature of the lower Mekong region is the dynamic energy of its natural systems and how intimately tied most of the population is to that seasonal force. Productivity in agriculture and fisheries, for example, depends on annual floodplain inundation and nutrient dispersal. The immense scale and impact of this natural cycle is well illustrated in the annual flooding of Tonle Sap Lake in Cambodia and the Mekong River Delta which it shares with Vietnam. The satellite photographs below show the Great Lake increasing four times in area, from 2,500 km2 to 10,000 km2 during the wet season, connecting it to a vast network of wetlands throughout Mekong. | Review of Protected Areas and Development R e g i o n a l R e p o r t Regional Report on Protected Areas and Development L o w e r M e k o n g R i v e r R e g i o n Review of protected areas and development in the four countries of the Lower Mekong River Region Regional Report on Protected Areas and Development November - 2003 Published by ICEM Indooroopilly Queensland Australia The PAD Review publications have been made possible by funding from Danish International Development Assistance Swiss Agency for Development Cooperation Australian Agency for International Development Asian Development Bank Royal Netherlands Government and Mekong River Commission.
