GIN AND NILWALA FLOOD CONTROL PROJECTS
"... Sri Lanka is an island with 2000mm average annual rainfall and maximum rainfall of 5500mm. Land area of 65519Mm2 is divided into a wet zone of 22000Mm2 by 2000mm isohyet. Heavy rainfall dropped into central mountains is drained to many reservoirs and hence it provides electricity in hilly areas. But ..."

. But the water drained to wet zone is not stored to produce electricity, other than in Kelani, Walawe river basins. A series of wet zone rivers are drained to sea with devastating floods. Lower Kelani, Kalu, Gin, Ben, Nilwala are the river basins with flood control projects. Gin and Nilwala basins were protected

"... ABSTRACT: In the preceding article, we reported a novel experimental technique, the “photocopy ” method, that allowed the first ever measurements of living chain molecular weight distributions (MWDs) in free radical polymerization (FRP) at steady state. The method entails flooding the FRP at some in ..."

ASSESSMENT TREND OF INUNDATION AND SALINITY INTRUSION IN COASTAL ZONE, MEKONG DELTA THROUGH CLIMATE CHANGE SCENARIOS
"... ABSTRACT: Coastal economy in Mekong Delta depends mainly on agriculture cultivation and fishery farming. However, this region is facing on the most effect of climate change because of low land which greatly affect food security in whole region. Developing climate change scenarios, assessing impact o ..."

with around 312,770 ha (in year 2050). Soc Trang has the biggest vulnerable areas, which affected by flooding and salinity, following by Ca Mau and Bac Lieu and small areas in Ben Tre, Tien Giang. This result will provide useful information to managers, policy makers in term of evaluating climate change

Policy Forum The costs and benefits of benefit-cost analysis
"... Among the tools of the economic trade, cost-benefit analysis is the most widely used in policy circles. Asking whether there is a role for cost-ben-efit analysis is like asking whether there is a role for the weatherman. Of course there is. The analogy is not idle. We need to know the weather, for i ..."

The Domestic Benefits of Tropical Forests: A Critical Review
"... Many forest conservation projects seek to preserve biodiversity by protecting habitats from exploitation or degradation. Although such efforts are often motivated by global concerns, habitat protection also yields domestic benefits. Some of these are intangible or difficult to quantify; others, such ..."

Second, the magnitude of domestic benefits could influence project financing. Sufficiently large net domestic ben-efits could justify financing of a project on narrow economic
