Abstract

Thua Thien Hue province, a coastal province in Central Vietnam has strongly affected by climate change, especially in aquaculture production. This paper reviews the results of household survey and key informant reviewing on effect of steam climate events and natural #disasters affect aquaculture in five districts of the province.Viet Nam's topography, climate and long coastline makes it particularly vulnerable to climate extremes and natural disasters. The country has around 3,260km of coastline and over 3,000 islands, where more than 70 percent of its population live. Dasgupta et al. (2007) suggested that #Viet Nam is one of the World's top five most vulnerable countries to sea level rise and the most vulnerable to climate change (CC) impacts in South East Asia. Thua Thien Hue as a central coastal province has 128 km of coastline and around 22,000 ha of Tam Giang lagoon. More than 30% of the provincial population live around #Tam Giang lagoon and earn living by directly or indirectly exploiting the natural resources in the lagoon (Binh et al., 2010). Aquaculture is a major component of the #economy of Thua Thien Hue, its development is regarded as top priority (Tuong et al., 2008).
