Especially, the average temperature in the North and North Central Vietnam is 0.5-1.0°C higher than the average temperature of the past 30 years. In particular, the natural resources and environment of coastal communes in general and Quang Binh, in particular, are facing the risk of being strongly affected by changes in temperature, rainfall and sea level and extreme weather phenomena. Through the application of GIS and remote sensing technology to assess the level of vulnerability caused by climate change to natural resources and the coastal environment. The paper has identified a set of evaluation indicators, including Sensitivity (traffic accessibility index); impacts of residential areas; effects of industrial zones; a degree of dependence of the community), Exposure index (sea-level rise until 2100; temperature change to 2100), Adaptive capacity index (slope index; morphology). From there, sum up so the vulnerability index to the impacts of climate change on natural resources and the environment in difficult coastal communes of Quang Binh province (Vulnerability to climate change). Keywords: Quang Binh Province, climate change, the level of vulnerability, difficult coastal communes, natural resources and the environment. I. INTRODUCTION issues such as increase of erosion, flooding, loss of According to a report of the Intergovernmental Panel wetlands, pollution and increase of indiscriminate on Climate Change, global average temperature and sea exploitation of land and coastal water sources. The level have increased quickly over the last 100 years, coastal communes in Quang Binh province include 12 especially in the last 25 years. In Vietnam, during the communes of Quang Trach, Bo Trach, Quang Ninh, Le past 50 years, the average temperature has increased by Thuy districts and Ba Don town. This area having rich 0.5 - 0.7oC, the sea level has risen about 20 cm. El Nino and diverse resources allow the development of many and La Nina phenomenons are increasingly severely important economic sectors such as transportation - impacting. Climate change has made natural disasters, ports, tourism - services, industry, mining, agriculture, especially typhoons, floods and droughts more severely. forestry and fisheries .... It is also a densely populated Due to negative effects of climate change, it is necessary area, with a fast urbanization rate that increases the to have assessments of the vulnerability of natural mechanical population, develops infrastructure and resources and the coastal environment. increases pressure on natural resources and environment Coastal areas play an important part in the socio- in the area. Therefore, assessing the level of economic development of the country because of their vulnerability caused by climate change to natural rare resources. It not only provides biological and non- resources and the environment in coastal communes in biological resources for human activities but also Quang Binh province is the foundation for having functions to regulate the natural as well as artificial immediate and long-term solutions consistent with the environment. People use the resources for life, for locality in a sustainable development strategy. economic activities and for the needs of recreation and entertainment. The process of industrialization, trade development and continuous population growth in many places put great pressure on coastal areas with negative 212

Overview of the research area dependence on the affected field, the number of laborers/ total population of localities reflects the economic dependence that locality to the agricultural sector. The ratio of agriculture, forestry and fishery/total population is determined based on survey data of the General Statistics Office in each commune. The lower the rate is, the greater the level of community dependence on agricultural production, the more sensitive and vulnerable it will be Figure 1. Location of the research area The coastal communes in Quang Binh province have an area of 22,416.81ha, accounting for 2.78% of the province's natural area, including 12 communes of communes and towns such as Ba Don town (Quang Minh and Quang Van, Quang Son, Quang Trung communes), Quang Trach district (Phu Hoa and Quang Dong communes), Bo Trach district (My Trach commune), Quang Ninh district (Hien Ninh, Duy Ninh and Hai Ninh communes), Le Thuy district (Hung Thuy, Hong Thuy communes) [2].

  5. B2. Exposure variables (E) Sea level rise and temperature change and rainfall are main indexes of climate change. The IPCC organization has demonstrated that temperature increase lead to sea level rise. Therefore, two main indexes are applied to evaluate vulnerability. The use of a low medium emission scenario (RCP 4.5) in 2100 caculates and assess vulnerability. - Sea level rise to 2100: Sea level rise index is based on the climate change scenario developed and published by the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment in 2016. The data of average sea level rise according to the scenario RCP 4.5 calculated by 2100 is 53 cm for the Quang Binh area. Combined with the DEM elevation numerical model, it is possible to determine which areas will flood till 2100 [1]. Table 4.
