Through the Improving the Mekong River Commission's (MRC) Regional Flood Forecasting Service, SERVIR Mekong supported the MRC to use new-generation satellite-derived precipitation products to increase flood forecast accuracy.
The Supporting Better Riverine and Flash Flood Forecasting for the Lower Mekong service improves riverine flood forecasts and enhances flash flood guidance monitoring in the region.
Densely populated communities living along low-lying deltas in Southeast Asia are dependent on the underground water stores these deltas provide for their livelihoods. Read about recent SERVIR activities toward helping this region use NASA's publicly available satellite data to support decision making on water resources issues.
The Mekong River Commission (MRC) is an intergovernmental organization that provides coordination and technical input on flood management to the members of the Lower Mekong countries including Cambodia, Lao PDR, Thailand, and Vietnam.
Lower Mekong countries suffer from the effects of seasonal flooding and flash flooding caused by monsoon rains and tropical storms. Regional and national level organizations and agencies require a range of information, forecasts, and decision-support tools to better prepare for, monitor, issue warnings, and respond to flood risk.
The Flash Flood Vulnerability Mapping service focuses on improving flash flood vulnerability mapping and early assessments of the potential socioeconomic impacts of anticipated floods.
