As a crucially important issue that Asia–Pacific region residents are currently confronting, this paper treats the increasing probability of unusual and extreme natural disasters that continue as a consequence of climate change, combined with sea-level rise (SLR). Calculated inundation areas in low-lying regions in Thailand are visualized using a geographical information system (GIS). Results suggest that the effect of SLR on increasing inundation is more remarkable than that of land subsidence. Therefore, appropriate adaptation measures must be undertaken in the respective regions to avoid enormous losses and damage from inundation that are expected to derive from the effects of SLR combined with land subsidence.
