Mondal, S.K. Bala, G.M.T. Islam, M.A. Haque, M.R. Islam & S. Biswas Institute of Water and Flood Management, Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology, Dhaka-1000, Bangladesh ABSTRACT: Hydrological and morphological studies of about 50 rivers in Bangladesh have been done over the last few years. The studies were conducted in relation to 188number of bridges proposed to be constructed on these rivers. The hydrological studies included estimation of flood discharge, level, velocity, hydraulic depth, flow area, etc., based on flood frequency and/or model studies. Flood frequency analysis was carried out using the Lognormal, Gumbel’s Extreme Value Type I, Pearson and Log Pearson probability distribution functions. One-dimensional hydrodynamic model was also used to generate design hydraulic parameters at the selected river locations. The morphological studies included assessment of stability of the river sites using time series satellite image analysis, quasi-three dimensional morphodynamic modeling, cross-sectional analy- sis and field observations. Spatial distribution of various parameters was then investigated. The findings indi- cate that some areas/rivers are hydro-morphologically more active and vulnerable than the others. Even the vulnerability of the same river varies depending on the location. Accordingly, hydraulic intervention in some rivers are found to be more challenging than in others. 1 INTRODUCTION Bangladesh is a country of rivers.

  • Sediment Dispersal Process and Its Management in the Meghna
    Sediment Problems and Sediment Management in Asian River Basins 203 (Proceedings of the Workshop held at Hyderabad, India, September 2009). IAHS Publ. 349, 2011. Sediment dispersal processes and management in coping with climate change in the Meghna Estuary, Bangladesh MAMINUL HAQUE SARKER, JAKIA AKTER, MD RUKNUL FERDOUS & FAHMIDA NOOR Center for Environmental and Geographic Information Services (CEGIS), House no.6, Road no. 23/C, Gulshan-1, Dhaka-1212, Bangladesh [email protected] Abstract Due to flat terrain and dense population, the Bengal Delta is highly vulnerable to sea level rise. At present the delta building process is active in the Meghna Estuary. Information on sediment dispersal processes in the estuary and their response to different exogenic and anthropogenic forces is an important requirement for managing the sediment and developing adaptive measures to counter the potential impact of climate change. Historical maps, satellite images and tidal water level data were analysed and the response of the Meghna Estuary to extreme events, e.g. the 1950 Assam earthquake, as well as anthropogenic interventions, was assessed. The issue of sediment management was addressed, based on an understanding of the response of the estuary to the extreme natural event and anthropogenic interventions, along with an assessment of the response of the estuary to sea level rise. Among other interventions, emphasis has been directed to promoting vertical accretion by injecting sediment into polders. Key words Bengal delta; Meghna Estuary; sea level rise; sediment dispersal processes; vertical accretion; sediment injection INTRODUCTION Deltas are a large accumulation of both fluvial and marine sediments which have infilled river mouths and extended onto the continental shelf (Fookes et al., 2007).

  • Cyclone Disaster Vulnerability and Response Experiences in Coastal
    Cyclone disaster vulnerability and response experiences in coastal Bangladesh Edris Alam Assistant Professor and Disaster and Development Centre Affiliate, Department of Geography and Environmental Studies, University of Chittagong, Bangladesh and Andrew E. Collins Reader in Disaster and Development, Disaster and Development Centre, School of Applied Sciences, Northumbria University, United Kingdom For generations, cyclones and tidal surges have frequently devastated lives and property in coastal and island Bangladesh. This study explores vulnerability to cyclone hazards using first-hand coping recollections from prior to, during and after these events. Qualitative field data suggest that, beyond extreme cyclone forces, localised vulnerability is defined in terms of response processes, infrastructure, socially uneven exposure, settlement development patterns, and livelihoods. Prior to cyclones, religious activities increase and people try to save food and valuable possessions. Those in dispersed settlements who fail to reach cyclone shelters take refuge in thatched-roof houses and big-branch trees. However, women and children are affected more despite the modification of traditional hierarchies during cyclone periods. Instinctive survival strategies and intra-community cooperation improve coping post cyclone. This study recommends that disaster reduction programmes encourage cyclone mitigation while being aware of localised realities, endogenous risk analyses, and coping and adaptation of affected communities (as active survivors rather than helpless victims). Keywords: coastal and island people of Bangladesh, coping, cyclone vulnerability, local response Introduction With the effects of natural hazards rising in terms of loss of life and injuries in poorer nations (ISDR, 2002; World Bank, 2005; CRED, 2007), institutional disaster reduction approaches (ISDR, 2004; UNDP, 2004; DFID, 2005) and approaches adaptable to individual social and livelihood experiences are required.

For sustainable development of hill tracts, electricity is inseparable. Like other parts of Bangladesh hill tracts districts felt increasing demand of electricity. In this paper an attempt has been taken to present the existing environmental condition and analysis the future environmental condition after implementation of project. Electrification will extend the length of the active day. Electrification will improve security (people’s perception of safety and security) at the region. The elements of the project identified as components for analysis are chosen based on DOE’s guideline. The study showed that 87% people say that they feel safer at night since being electrified. Impacts are classified on the basis of EPA’s scaling and DOE, university’s teachers, NGOs expert’s opinions. Value more than 10 is classified significantly affected element of the project.

PREFACE What prompted us in writing this Book. As the saying goes, truth is the first casualty of war; so is true history, the first casualty of India’s struggle for independence. We, the Hindus of Bengal happen to be one of the worst victims of Islamic intolerance in the world. Bengal, which had been under Islamic attack for centuries, beginning with the invasion of the Turkish marauder Bakhtiyar Khilji eight hundred years back. We had a respite from Islamic rule for about two hundred years after the English East India Company defeated the Muslim ruler of Bengal. Siraj-ud-daulah in 1757. But gradually, Bengal had been turned into a Muslim majority province.

  • Environmental and Social Assessment (ESA)
    Private Investment and Digital Entrepreneurship (PRIDE) Project Bangladesh Economic Zones Authority (BEZA) Public Disclosure Authorized Environmental and Social Assessment (ESA) Package No. BEZA S-135 Public Disclosure Authorized Public Disclosure Authorized Draft Report Public Disclosure Authorized Appendices to ESA Report Vol II February 2020 1 Appendix D: Assessment of Air Quality and Water Quality 1.1 Air Quality Introduction The BSMSN area will generate huge traffic after full development both for passenger and goods. There will be wide range of vehicles such as two and three axle/ multi axle trucks, bus, car, two-wheeler etc. These type of transportation system are major contributors to air pollution as these emit harmful pollutants which has adverse impact on environment. It is difficult to project air pollution as because pollutant enters the air by different amounts at different times and also varies with places. It is expected that air pollutants which might be discharged by the operations of tenant in the industrial and logistic area would be well controlled and managed by the tenants. For indicative assessment of air quality of the project area, projection has been done for some pollutants due to vehicle emission only. Forecast Area The areas examined to forecast is the project area (Zone 2A and 2B of BSMSN) shown in the Figure 1- 1. The project area is about 1450 acres. At present, it is observed that the concentration of some pollutants such as SO2, NOX, CO, PM2.5, PM10 and SPM are below the allowable limit as per DoE standard (Bangladesh). All the surveyed data are given in the baseline data collection section of main report.
