Multiple drivers of hydrological alteration in the transboundary Srepok River Basin of the Lower Mekong Region

This research paper examines how land use, climate, and hydropower development drive hydrological alterations in the Srepok River Basin, utilizing IHA software and the Range of Variability Approach to quantify impacts on river ecosystems and water management.

• Land use, rainfall, and temperature each influence different aspects of the hydrological regime, with land use showing the strongest correlations among IHA and EFC parameters (ranging from 0.85 to -0.83), followed by rainfall (0.78 to -0.54) and temperature (0.42 to -0.47).
• The 'fall rate' is the parameter most significantly affected by all three drivers of hydrological alteration, while hydropower development specifically impacts the fall rate and reversal.
