About SATREPS in Cambodia

Science and Technology Research Partnership for Sustainable Development (SATREPS) is a Japanese government program that promotes international joint research targeting global issues. The program is a collaboration between two Japanese government agencies: the Japan Science and Technology Agency (JST) and the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA). In Cambodia, the project “Establishment of Environmental Conservation Platform of Tonle Sap Lake” started under SATREPS program, which is a 5-year project starting from April 2016 to March 2021 and has a satellite office located in Institute of Technology of Cambodia (ITC). The main institutions of the projects are: (1) Tokyo Institute of Technology, Japan, and (2) Institute of Technology of Cambodia, Cambodia.

About Tonle Sap Lake

Tonle Sap Lake in General

• Location: 12°53′N 104°04′E

• Tonle Sap Great Lake, in central Cambodia, is the largest natural lake in Southeast Asia

• The size of the lake varies seasonally, expanding from the dry 2,5000 km2 season to 15,000 km2 in the wet season.

• The direction of flow in the lake also changes twice per year. The lake receives water from the Mekong River via the Tonle Sap River during the wet season causing the water level in the lake to rise and discharging the water back into the Mekong River in the dry season.
  

Location map for Tonle Sap Lake, indicating the extent of permanent inundation and the seasonal inundation area (Campbell et al., 2006)

Water level throughout the season collected year 1992-2001 (Sukkla et al., 2003)

Value of Tonle Sap Lake

• The Tonle Sap Lake is a fascinating system of great intrinsic value, and of great economic and cultural value to the people of Cambodia.
  

Problem in Tonle Sap Lake

• Human population growth in the basin, over-harvesting of aquatic resources, and the possible impacts of hydrological changes in the Mekong River are the three most pressing threats to the Tonle Sap Lake ecosystem.
• Sedimentation is another concern in this lake.
  
• It is of serious concern that Tonle Sap may be impacted by developments initiated in countries outside Cambodia.
