These scenarios of climate change, sea level rise are the preliminary basis for ministries, sectors and provinces/ cities to assess posible climate change impacts on socio-economic sectors, to develop and implement their respective action plans for responding to and reducing potential impacts of future climate changes. The scenarios of climate change, sea level rise for Vietnam presented in this report were developed based on the available national and international studies, the comments and ideas of experts and managers of relevant ministries and sectors.
