New systematically measured sand mining budget for the Mekong Delta reveals rising trends and significant volume underestimations

New systematically measured sand mining budget for the Mekong Delta reveals rising trends and significant volume underestimations

The river beds of the Mekong Delta are some of the most intensively sand mined places in the world. However, sand mining budgets remain limited to rough and indirect estimates. Here, we provide a first systematic, field-based estimation of the Mekong Delta's sand mining budget. This budget over...
