Boeung Prek Lapouv (Mekong delta, Cambodia) wetland restoration project (WWT)
Abstract
Management interventions to improve wet conditions in the BPL area during the start of the dry season were evaluated using Sentinel-1 SAR data. The research and interventions are described in https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.07.14.664714v1. The data sets contained in the zip file BPL_data.zip are: - 30mDEM_BPL.tif: 30 m resolution digital elevation model of Boeung Prek Lapouv - BPL_202?_interventions.shp: locations of interventions in 2022-2024 - BPL_flooded.grd: estimates of flooding at 10 m resolution, 2021- may 2025 - BPL_s1_vh.grd, BPL_s1_vv.grd: sentinel-1 2 week synthetic aperture radar VH and VV composites 2021-may 2025 used to generate the flooding estimates - Dipwell_cm_below_surface.csv: groundwater levels (distance to the surface in cm) - Dipwell_locations.csv: locations of dipwells where groundwater is measured - era5_twice_monthly_ppn.csv: ERA5 land monthly precipitation, split in two week intervals. - Flooded_R_function.txt: R code use to process one time series of VV and VH data; requires precipitation input as well. - Measurement_locations_ditch_?.csv: ? is A-C locations of ditch A through C; A and B were blocked, C is a control (unchanged) Readme.md: file with description of files and R code. Funding was also obtained from Fondation L'Occitane and WWT.
