Dams are some of the most important man-made structures that provide significant benefits to societies by mitigating floods and droughts while supporting irrigation, domestic or industrial water supply, and power generation. However, global attention on the detrimental ramifications of dam operations has increased owing to the observed irreversible environmental impacts of existing dams in over-developed regions. Despite these concerns, the growing demands for energy and water in developing regions have led to a boom in the construction of large dams in recent years with hundreds more planned in the near future. Additionally, the construction and operation of dams in these regions are often based on localized, incomplete, or inconsistent observation-based hydrologic analyses, rendering them less effective in mitigating hazard risks. Simultaneously, climate change is intensifying flood and drought events, making them less predictable and more destructive, especially in developing regions. Thus, there is an urgent need for in-depth investigation of past changes as well as future uncertainties in hydrology of these regions under the compound impact of climate change and dam operations.This dissertation addresses these critical issues by employing a high-resolution river-floodplain-reservoir model called the CaMa-Flood-Dam (CMFD), that realistically accounts for hydropower and irrigation dam operations. Model simulations are used to quantify the changes in river regime and flood dynamics in the Mekong River Basin (MRB). First, analyses of an important subbasin with unique hydrological features in the MRB, the Tonle Sap, are conducted to provide a comprehensive assessment on the alteration of the Tonle Sap Lake, Southeast Asia largest lake. Then, key insights are presented on the evolving river regime and flood pulse of the entire MRB over 83 years, focusing on the difference between climate and dam impacts on seasonal timing and water balance. Finally, potential changes in river regime and extremes across the MRB under multiple combinations of future climate and planned dam development are explored. The key findings from the aforementioned analyses are: (1) Mekong river flow's trends and variabilities of are still mainly driven by climate variation, however, dam operations have exerted a growing influence on the Mekong flood pulse especially after 2010; (2) dams are causing a gradual shrinkage of the Tonle Sap lake by reducing its annual inflow from the Mekong mainstream; (3) dams are delaying the Mekong's wet season onset and shortening its duration; (4) dams have largely altered the Lower Mekong flood occurrence by shifting substantial volume of water between the seasons; and (5) in the future, dams will notably increase dry season flow.The results in this dissertation provide major advances and important insights on the integrated river-floodplain-reservoir dynamics in the MRB and paving pathways towards a more sustainable development based on the understanding of the continually changing hydrological systems in the region. Furthermore, this assessment could benefit future investigations in other developing regions worldwide where dam construction is similarly booming.
