Impacts of climate change and water uses on availability of water for aquaculture in the Lower Nan Basin

This is an incomplete draft submission (one-pager) towards a longer article / publication, the object of which is to explore how changes in climate and water demand could potentially influence flows in the Nan River at different times of the year and thus the conditions under which cage aquaculture remains viable. The Water Evaluation And Planning (WEAP) system was used to analyze water balances and river discharges, for a set of water demand, allocation, dam operation rules (for the Sirikit Dam) and climate change scenarios
