  • Evaluating the Phenomenon of Urban Heat Island Effect of Suhrawardy Udyan, Dhaka Sabrina Rahman, Soniha Nuzrat, Ashrafun Nahar Liza, Nawrin Mahmud
    International Journal of Scientific & Engineering Research Volume 9, Issue 10, October-2018 1657 ISSN 2229-5518 Evaluating the Phenomenon of Urban Heat Island Effect of Suhrawardy Udyan, Dhaka Sabrina Rahman, Soniha Nuzrat, Ashrafun Nahar liza, Nawrin Mahmud Abstract— Dhaka City, like other large cities, is warmer than surrounding areas due to the urban heat island effect, which is defined as an increase in urban air temperature as compared to surrounding suburban and rural temperature. The development of a heat island has regional-scale impacts on energy demand, air quality, and public health. Artificial urban land uses such as public open spaces, commercial and residential buildings, roads, and parking lots covered by impervious surfaces can contribute to the formation of urban heat islands (UHIs). Considering the increasing paved area with little vegetation cover in Dhaka, Bangladesh, this study evaluated the phenomenon for UHI effect of Suhrawardy Udyan, Dhaka. The recent scenario after the construction of Liberation War Monument project will be evaluated through an observational study. With the help of Metrological department of Bangladesh, a comparative observational study will be evaluated with the previous scenario before construction of the project. This study will help us to observe the phenomenon of Urban Heat Island effect in a public open space. Index Terms— Dhaka Public space, Impervious surface, Public open space, Temperature, Urban Heat Island, UHI effect of Suhrawardy Udyan. —————————— —————————— 1 INTRODUCTION he term “urban heat islands” refers to the observed tempe- An urban heat island is created when naturally vegetated T rature difference between urban environments and the surfaces – e.g., grass and trees – are replaced with non- surrounding rural areas.

  • Middle-Class Household Consumption in Dhaka, Bangladesh: Understanding Current Practices Related to Food, Electricity, Transport and Attire
    School of Design and the Built Environment Middle-class Household Consumption in Dhaka, Bangladesh: Understanding Current Practices Related to Food, Electricity, Transport and Attire. Mohammad Solaiman This thesis is presented for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy of Curtin University July 2019 Declaration To the best of my knowledge and belief this thesis contains no material previously published by any other person except where due acknowledgement has been made. This thesis contains no material which has been accepted for the award of any other degree or diploma in any university. Signature: Date: 31 July 2019 ABSTRACT This research is the first study of the consumption practices of middle-class households in the city of Dhaka, the capital city of Bangladesh. Consumption patterns relating to four categories of consumption - food, electricity, transport and attire - are analysed from the perspective of sustainability. Middle-class household consumption practices in each of the four categories are explored to understand their origins and social, historical and cultural drivers, track the changes that are taking place and interpret their contributions to the city’s poor liveability. Dhaka is a 400-year-old city which has gained and lost its status as the provincial capital of Bengal several times during its history. As a result, the population of Dhaka has periodically increased and decreased. Since the independence of Bangladesh in 1971, Dhaka has experienced consistent development, characterised by unplanned expansion, rapid urban migration, the creation of slums, unplanned infrastructure and a road network that encroaches on the rivers, canals and wetlands within the city’s boundaries. Dhaka is identified as one of the world’s least liveable cities and has been for several years.
