National sub-areas of the LMB for Basin Development Plan (BDP_SANAT)
No.184, Unit 18, Fa Ngoum Rd., Ban Sithane Neua
To form BDP_SANAT, major sub-areas were subdivided into country units (national sub-areas) using national boundaries (gb_counbnd). A list of the proportions of each province within each sub-area is given in Table 2 (bdpsa_prov.xls). Only areas comprising more than 5% of the province are considered. Note on LMB boundary It should be noted that the LMB boundary as defined for the WUP models using SWAT differed slightly from the standard LMB boundary used by MRC (as depicted in the TSD dataset b_lmbbnd50. The two main areas of difference are in the north of the basin (where a much larger area in Myanmar and China is included in the Lower Basin); and in the south-east, which includes areas in Svay Rieng, Long An and Tay Ninh outside the nominal dry season LMB, but affected by Mekong flooding. The boundary differs slightly in other areas as well - notably that an area of northern Luangnamtha which drains north into China is omitted from the LMB as defined for the models; and there are discrepancies along the boundaries, particularly in the Central Highlands. BDP sub-areas are defined on the basis of hydrological units, and are designed to facilitate analysis of hydrological outcomes from the WUP models. For convenience in working with the models, the BDP sub-areas have been defined using the LMB boundary from the WUP models. The discrepancies are not generally large, and are NOT SIGNIFICANT at the level of regional analysis.
