Abstract

The Mekong River is the 12th longest river in the world and is an important river called the lifeline of Southeast Asia. The Mekong River and its tributaries usually rain heavily in August. This causes the water level to rise sharply and floods begin to fill the vast floodplain. The purpose of this study is to analyze the amount of flooding in the Mekong River basin using precipitation data calculated by satellites, and to estimate the flood area.
