These are basins with high economic dependence on water resources, low levels of social well-being and high exposure to floods and droughts.<\/li><li>Special attention should be paid to the impacts of upstream activities on deltas, in particular the reduction of sediment supply (resulting in sinking deltas) and of water flows due to dams and abstractions, and to pollution.<\/li><li>Deltas in Asia are most at risk with the Ganges-Brahmaputra-Meghna delta the most vulnerable caused by a combination of relative sea level rise and population pressures and dam building holding back silt in areas where major cities lie.<\/li><li>The Ganges-Brahmaputra-Meghna basin is also likely to face growing water stress. Although water availability is expected to increase in the whole basin by about 20% in the 2050s, this will be counteracted by growing demand driven by population growth and increased risk of political tension associated with dams and diversions. <em>Countries affected: Bangladesh, Bhutan, China, India, Myanmar, Nepal.<\/em><\/li><li>Central Asia basins are predicted to become a hotpot of agricultural stress \u2013 while poverty, armed conflicts and population growth could make it more difficult for countries to manage potential tensions associated with new water infrastructure.
