Impacts of Mangrove Plantations on Land Stabilization Along the Coastline in Bangladesh. American Journal of Earth and Environmental Sciences. Vol. 2, No. 1, 2019, pp. 1-8. Received : January 23, 2018; Accepted : February 7, 2019; Published : April 9, 2019 Abstract: Rapid degradation of stabilized mangrove plantations in the southern and south-eastern part of Bangladesh has raised much concern to the scientists and environmentalists. In the past, land stabilization concept in connection to mangrove plantations is poorly understood. This study aimed at assessing the current status of mangrove plantations and understanding more about their impacts on land stabilization along the coastline of Bangladesh. The study was carried out at five Coastal Afforestation Divisions (here mentioned as CADs) of Bangladesh Forest Department (BFD) from September 2014 to August 2015. Primary data on stabilized mangrove plantations over the time period of 1966 - 2014 were collected from BFD field offices. Secondary data on natural accretion and erosion were collected from a large number of existing literatures. The results showed that more than 192,395 ha of mangrove plantations were stabilized over the period from 1966 through 2014 in five CADs with the highest distribution in Noakhali (40%) followed by that in Chittagong (26%), Bhola (20%) and Patuakhali (14%).

SAJJADUZZAMAN, NUR MUHAMMED† AND MASAO KOIKE†1 Bangladesh Forest Department, Ban Bhaban, Mohakhali, Dhaka-1212, Bangladesh †Forest Policy Laboratory, Department of Forest Science, Shinshu University, 8304 Minamiminowa-Mura, Nagano-Ken 399-4598, Japan 1Corresponding author’s email: [email protected] ABSTRACT Mangroves play a fundamental role in moderating monsoon tidal floods and coastal protection. The depletion of mangroves is a cause of serious environmental and economic concern to many developing countries. Problems of sustainability of mangrove ecosystems are not only technical but also socio-economic. A study based on the needs of specific situation was conducted to conserve and restore mangrove ecosystems sustainability. Through this study we were able to identify the causes and consequences of mangrove forest destruction and plausible solution to halt deforestation at Noakhali region of Bangladesh and a model has been formulated. It is believed that if the proposed model is applied in the present study as well as other costal areas, it will bring a positive change in costal plantation in Bangladesh. The model is applicable to others countries facing similar situations. Key Words: Mangrove; Deforestation; Noakhali; Model; Bangladesh INTRODUCTION started in the Noakhali Forest Division in the 1990s, while a grazing permit was issued by the Land Department of Mangroves are the littoral plant arrangement of tropical Laxmipur district. Following this, landless people as well as and sub-tropical sheltered coastlines, which are usually some vested group gathered in the area and encroached about saline, anaerobic and frequently alkaline.
