Vietnam is gifted with a dense network of rivers and abundant water resources. However, the gift along with the limited irrigation system of the country seems putting more pressure on the sustainable management of water resources in river basins. In order to develop a framework for assessing environmental sustainability for water resources in the Srepok River basin in Vietnam (VSRB), this study applied the Fuzzy Analytical Hierarchy Process (Fuzzy AHP) since this approach has been powerful and appropriate for sustainability assessment studies. The ten core environmental sustainability indicators were developed based on the current issues existing in the VSRB.

The land valuation process is an integrated assessment of land price determinants that help managers formulate land-use policies, taxes, and the real estate market. In this study, ten factors affecting land value are selected and divided into 03 groups of factors, including i) Accessibility; ii) Environment; and iii) Socio-culture. The study then determined the weights of the elements by AHP and performed the spatial analysis by GIS, Fuzzy, to determine land value. The results reflect the distribution of land value zones in the Dong Anh district and show a strong correlation with the actual land prices traded in the market. This land value information is assigned to the land parcels to support automated valuation models and urban planning. This study can be implemented in other areas or on a larger scale.

Abstract: The assessment of carbon stocks is one of the key measurements to support climate change mitigation policies. The research applied Landsat 8 satellite imagery combined with field-measurements using four machine learning methods (random forest - RF, artificial neural networks - NNET, support vector machines – SVM, and linear regression - LM) to estimate aboveground carbon in evergreen broadleaf forest in Binh Phuoc province. The field sample plots were randomly divided into training (96 plots) and testing (24 plots) data. The results showed that RF yielded the greatest precision with an R2 value above 0,9 and RMSE below 6 ton/ha on the training data, with an R2 value of 0,41 and RMSE of 11,04 ton/ha on the testing data. The estimate of forest carbon stock increased distinctly from the mean value of 59,80 ton/ha in the very poor forest to 87,78 ton/ha in the rich forest. The results found in the present study demonstrated that Landsat 8 imagery in conjunction with RF has the appropriate to estimate aboveground carbon stock in evergreen broadleaf forest-leaved in Binh Phuoc province. Keywords: Random forest, aboveground carbon, REDD+, forest carbon estimation.

Total tannins were separated and recovered from paper mills wastewater by distributed extraction and used as a raw material to synthesize quaternary ammonium tannate through the Mannich reaction. Quaternary ammonium tannins are used as coagulants and flocculants in wastewater treatment. The structural and properties of the quaternary ammonium tannate materials were determined by FTIR infrared spectroscopy, SEM scanning electron microscopy, DSC-TGA thermal analysis and determine the point of zero charge-pHpzc. The experiment to evaluate the coagulation and flocculation ability of the quaternary ammonium tannate in wastewater treatment was performed using the Jartest device model and evaluated through the removal efficiency of Pb2+ and Cd2+ metal ions, turbidity and DO index. The DO index and turbidity of the wastewater sample are best treated with quaternary ammonium tannin content in the range of 0.5-1%, the time for coagulation and flocculation is 30 minutes. The removal efficiency of metal ions Pb2+ and Cd2+ reached 92% and 75% respectively in the pH range from 5-7 with the input ion concentration of 50 ppm.

The main purpose of this article is to establish a susceptibility zonation map of the landslides and debris flows in Phin Ngan commune, Bat Xat district, Lao Cai province on a large scale using statistical methods and machine learning combined with the FlowR model. First, the five Landslide Susceptibility Index (LSI) maps were established from two statistical models (Logistic Regression - LR, Discriminant Analysis – DA) and three machine learning models (Bayesian Network – BN, Artificial Neural Network – ANN, Support Vector Machine – SVM) were generated based on seven maps of landslide conditioning factors (slope, curvature, stream power index-SPI, topographic wetness index-TWI, sediment transportation index-STI, land use/land cover and weathering crust). Next, the five LSI maps will be evaluated for performance with the value of Area Under the Curve (AUC) according to the Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve. After that, a susceptibility map of debris flow established with FlowR software was combined with the five LSI maps created from five statistical and machine learning methods to generate a susceptibility zonation map of landslides and debris flows in the study area. The area percentage of the locations with landslides and debris flows located in the zones of susceptibility (very low, low, medium, high, very high), which were created from five combined methods: BN-FlowR, LR-FlowR, DA-FlowR, ANN-FlowR, and SVM-FlowR, were compared and evaluated. The results indicate that the integrated models have given outputs with good forecasting ability. They are also very useful in land-use planning as well as the prevention and mitigation of risks due to landslides and debris flows in the research area and other similar mountainous areas.

Extreme hydrological events become increasingly unpredictable due to climate change and sea-level rise, highlighting the importance of coastal sea level monitoring. This study aims to develop a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) reflectometry technology that uses low-cost multi-frequency antennas to measure water levels. A multi-frequency GNSS antenna was installed in the Tam Giang lagoon area, Thua Thien Hue province, to collect data of GPS/GLONASS/Galileo/Beidou satellites at 1Hz from April 10 to April 29, 2022. Water level elevation is calculated from GNSS reflectometry data using Interference Pattern Technical (IPT) based on Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR). After filtering, the water level results are validated by data from the water level sensor located in the same location. The Root Mean Square Error between the water level from the GNSS - Reflectometry (GNSS– R) and the in situ measurement is 0,049 m and the correlation coefficient reaches 0,93 when combining different frequencies. The study results demonstrate that the multi-frequency GNSS-R station can be used as an additional method to measure water levels with an accuracy comparable to that of a standard tidal gauge. In addition, the study results also show the sensitivity of the GNSS reflected signal to weather conditions and the state of the sea surface, which is the basis for forecasting and early warning of storm surge extremes from GNSS reflectometry data.

This research uses the GHI (Global Horizontal Irradiation Index) raster data source of solar radiation potential map developed by The World Bank Group and the land use map data, infrastructure in 2019 of Thanh Hoa province to calculate the solar radiation technical potential in Thanh Hoa province. In addition, GIS techniques are also applied to overlay thematic maps to determine the available solar energy development area according to the method of the Institute of Energy. The results show that the available solar energy development area is 54,621.15 ha, accounting for 5% of the province's natural area, the technical potential is 21,848.46 MWp. The well-developed regions are concentrated in the lowland and midland districts due to favorable conditions of land scale and infrastructure, less affected by natural disasters such as storms, floods and landslides. Regarding the method of determining technical potential, it is required to be more specific to identify available and exclusion areas with some types of land such as water surface, forest and paddy rice land.
