Tidal regime along Vietnam coast under impacts of sea level rise
The characteristics of the tides in coastal areasare formed by the resonance between the astronomical waves transmitted from the ocean into shallow water and topography in both horizontal (scale of water bodies) and vertical (depth) directions. Thus, sea level rise due to climate change that...

| Summary: | The characteristics of the tides in coastal areasare formed by the resonance between the
astronomical waves transmitted from the ocean into shallow water and topography in both
horizontal (scale of water bodies) and vertical (depth) directions. Thus, sea level rise due to
climate change that would alter the depth and scaleof the ocean will lead to changes in tidal
characteristics. The ROMS model (Regional Oceanography Modeling System) was used to study
the impact of sea level rise on tidal regime along the coast of Vietnam. The model was validated
by using tidal current regime, and, consequently, used to simulate for the cases of global sea level
rise scenarios of 0.5m, 0.75m and 1.0 m |
