Natural hydrological regime of rivers is an important reference for the assessment of ecological flow. However, the hydrological alterations are associated with the influence of climate change and human activities. Considering the variation of intra-annual distribution of runoff, this study evaluated the ecological flow of different river environmental management objectives by using flow duration curve shifting method. The results show that the change points of hydrological time series occurred in 2008 for Chiang Saen and Luang Prabang, 2012 for NongKhai station, and 2006 for Pakse and Stung Treng station. Approximately 72%~80% of the annual flow was determined as ecological flow for five stations on the Mekong mainstream to maintain the optimal ecological condition, while 33%~49% of the annual flow is needed to protect the basic functions of the river ecosystem. The satisfaction rate of ecological flow for EMC-A and EMC-B increased in dry season and decreased in rainy season after hydrological alterations while the variations from EMC-C to EMC-F do not obvious. The results of this study will provide a reference for transboundary water resources management and ecological protection in the Mekong River Basin.
