This study takes an historical approach in order to establish how the form and function of social-ecological system that represents Bangladesh south-western coastal zone has changed over recent decades. Time series data for a range ecosystem services drivers are analysed define trends, presence change points, slow fast variables significant change. Since 1980s, increasing gross domestic product per capita income mirror rising levels food inland fish production. As result, size population...
Salty soil in Bangladesh.
The potential impacts of climate change and socio-economic on flow water quality in rivers worldwide is a key area interest.
The need to integrate Early Warning System (EWS) with Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) has long been recognized in several global forums. In the year 2006, United Nations International Strategy for (UNISDR) proposed an Integrated Risk-based EWS (IR-EWS) by integrating four elements: (1) Monitoring and warning service; (2) knowledge; (3) Dissemination communication; (4) Response capability. Nearly after two decades of UNISDR proposal, our study finds that there are still gaps making IR-EWS...
Salinity intrusion in coastal Bangladesh has serious population health implications, which are yet to be clearly understood. The study was undertaken through the ‘Assessing Health, Livelihoods, Ecosystem Services and Poverty Alleviation Populous Deltas’ project Bangladesh. Drinking water salinity blood pressure measurements were carried out during household survey campaign. explored association among Socio-Ecological Systems (SESs), drinking pressure. High (prehypertension hypertension)...
The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are offered as a comprehensive strategy to guide and encourage sustainable development at multiple scales both nationally internationally. Furthermore, through the of indicators associated with each goal sub-goal, SDGs support notion monitoring, evaluation adaptive management, underpinned by aspirations social justice, equity transparency. As such, ethical intention is well founded. However, possible conflicts trade-offs between individual have...
Groundwater resources in deltaic regions are vulnerable to contamination by saline seawater, posing significant crisis for drinking water. Current policy and practice of building water supply infrastructure, without adequate hydrogeological analysis institutional coordination failing provide basic services millions poor people such difficult contexts. We apply a social-ecological systems approach examine interdisciplinary data from mapping, infrastructure audit, 2103 household surveys, focus...
Abstract River deltas globally are highly exposed and vulnerable to natural hazards often over-exploited landforms. The Global Delta Risk Index (GDRI) was developed assess multi-hazard risk in river support decision-making reduction interventions delta regions. Disasters have significant impacts on the progress towards Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). However, despite strong interlinkage between disaster sustainable development, global frameworks still isolation actions address them...
Abstract Understanding the dynamics of salt movement in soil is a prerequisite for devising appropriate management strategies land productivity coastal regions, especially low‐lying delta which support many millions farmers around world. At present, there are no numerical models able to resolve salinity at regional scale and daily time steps. In this research, we develop novel holistic approach simulate salinization comprising an emulator‐based water balance calculated The method...
<title>Abstract</title> The study deals with the evaluation of hybrid machine learning model KNN-SVM for forecasting solar power in Bangladesh. Furthermore, results are compared that achieved from individual models: K-Nearest Neighbor, Support Vector Machine, and Long Short-Term Memory. In this regard, mode performed better, obtaining minimum RMSE 0.0066 both HTGSR HTPEG. While LSTM had edge sequence prediction, nonlinear patterns were handled by hybrid, where instance-based is balanced...
Water-related risks impact development opportunities and can trap communities in a downward spiral of economic decline. In this article, the dynamic relationship between water-related outcomes for an embanked area coastal Bangladesh is conceptualized. The interaction flood events, salinity, deteriorating poorly maintained water infrastructure, agricultural production income modelled. model used to test effect improvements reliability, operation maintenance infrastructure on incomes assets....
The total blue carbon stock of the Bangladesh Sundarban mangroves was evaluated and probable future status after a century predicted based on recent trend changes in last 30 years implementing hybrid model Markov Chain Cellular automata. At present 36.24 Tg C 54.95 are stored above-ground below-ground compartments respectively resulting 91.19 C. According to prediction 15.88 would be lost from this region by year 2115. low saline species composition classes dominated mainly Heritiera spp....
