海洋和湖泊三角洲地区仅占地球表面的1%,但却是5亿多人的家园。1.能源是国家和区域一级农业生产的关键贡献者,因此能够减轻全球粮食不安全风险。此外,热带大三角洲维持着丰富的生态系统,提供各种服务,并以高度的生物多样性和自然资源而闻名。2然而,与此同时,它们的地理位置,加上土地利用和流域管理往往较差,意味着三角洲比其他沿海地区更容易遭受自然危害和灾害,例如沉降、洪水、海岸侵蚀和飓风/台风。事实证明,这些环境冲击导致大量人口向外移徙,并威胁到经济上已经相对贫穷的地区的人类安全。3气候变化,特别是海平面上升,增加了突发灾害以及盐碱侵入等蔓延过程的风险,加剧了现有的脆弱性。4,5因此,世界各地的许多三角洲受到威胁。6是
Marine and lacustrine delta regions constitute only 1% of the Earth’s surface but are home to over 500 million people. 1 ey are key contributors to agricultural production at the national and regional levels and thus enable alleviation of global food insecurity risks. In addition, tropical megadeltas sustain rich ecosystems that provide a variety of services and are noted for high biodiversity and natural resources. 2 At the same time, however, their geographical location, coupled with often poor land use and river basin management, implies that deltas, more than other coastal areas, are prone to natural hazards and disasters such as subsidence, flooding, coastal erosion, and cyclones/typhoons. ese environmental shocks have been proven to lead to high out migration and threaten human security in already relatively economically poor regions. 3 Climate change, in particular sea-level rise, exacerbates the existing vulnerabilities by increasing the risks of rapid-onset disasters, as well as creeping processes such as salinity intrusion. 4, 5 Many deltas around the world are therefore threatened. 6 is
