  • Decline in Fish Species Diversity Due to Climatic and Anthropogenic Factors
    Heliyon 7 (2021) e05861 Contents lists available at ScienceDirect Heliyon journal homepage: www.cell.com/heliyon Research article Decline in fish species diversity due to climatic and anthropogenic factors in Hakaluki Haor, an ecologically critical wetland in northeast Bangladesh Md. Saifullah Bin Aziz a, Neaz A. Hasan b, Md. Mostafizur Rahman Mondol a, Md. Mehedi Alam b, Mohammad Mahfujul Haque b,* a Department of Fisheries, University of Rajshahi, Rajshahi, Bangladesh b Department of Aquaculture, Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh, Bangladesh ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT Keywords: This study evaluates changes in fish species diversity over time in Hakaluki Haor, an ecologically critical wetland Haor in Bangladesh, and the factors affecting this diversity. Fish species diversity data were collected from fishers using Fish species diversity participatory rural appraisal tools and the change in the fish species diversity was determined using Shannon- Fishers Wiener, Margalef's Richness and Pielou's Evenness indices. Principal component analysis (PCA) was conducted Principal component analysis with a dataset of 150 fishers survey to characterize the major factors responsible for the reduction of fish species Climate change fi Anthropogenic activity diversity. Out of 63 sh species, 83% of them were under the available category in 2008 which decreased to 51% in 2018. Fish species diversity indices for all 12 taxonomic orders in 2008 declined remarkably in 2018. The first PCA (climatic change) responsible for the reduced fish species diversity explained 24.05% of the variance and consisted of erratic rainfall (positive correlation coefficient 0.680), heavy rainfall (À0.544), temperature fluctu- ation (0.561), and beel siltation (0.503). The second PCA was anthropogenic activity, including the use of harmful fishing gear (0.702), application of urea to harvest fish (0.673), drying beels annually (0.531), and overfishing (0.513).

  • Original Research Article an Economic Analysis of Agar-Wood
    1 Original Research Article 2 3 An Economic Analysis of Agar-wood 4 Production in North-eastern Bangladesh 5 6 7 . 8 ABSTRACT 9 The present study was carried out to examine the economics of agar-wood production and assess the financial viability of agar plantations in north-eastern Bangladesh (Barlekha Upazila, Moulvibazar District). Primary data were collected through structured questionnaire administered on 30 agar farmers using purposive sampling technique during the months of September, 2017. The total cost of agar-wood production was found BDT 1450571 per acre and BDT 1612 per agar tree. The net return was BDT 1892929 per acre and BDT 2103 per agar tree, and undiscounted BCR considering total cost was 2.30. Financial viability of 1 acre of agar-wood plantations for the period of 12 years was found feasible with respect to net present value (NPV) BDT 552327, discounted benefit cost ratio (BCR) 2.07, internal rate of return (IRR) 23.7 per cent. Sensitivity analysis also suggested the viability of agar-wood production in different situations. The study revealed that agar-wood production is a highly feasible enterprise from which the farmers can enjoy economic benefits. 10 11 Keywords: Benefit cost ratio; net present value; internal rate of return; sensitivity analysis; 12 agar-wood. 13 14 1. INTRODUCTION 15 16 The agar tree (Aquilaria malaccensis) is one of 15 tree species in the Indo-Malaysian genus 17 Aquilaria of the Thymelaeaceae family [1]. It is a large evergreen tree, growing over 15-40 18 meters tall and 0.6-2.5 meters in diameter, and has white flowers [2].

    THE NATURE AND EXTENT OF HOMICIDE IN BANGLADESH: A CONTENT ANALYSIS ON REPORTS OF MURDER IN DAILY NEWSPAPERS T. M. Abdullah-Al-Fuad June 2016 Department of Sociology University of Dhaka Dhaka University Institutional Repository THE NATURE AND EXTENT OF HOMICIDE IN BANGLADESH: A CONTENT ANALYSIS ON REPORTS OF MURDER IN DAILY NEWSPAPERS T. M. Abdullah-Al-Fuad Reg no. 111 Session: 2011-2012 Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Master of Philosophy June 2016 Department of Sociology University of Dhaka Dhaka University Institutional Repository DEDICATION To my parents and sister Dhaka University Institutional Repository Abstract As homicide is one of the most comparable and accurate indicators for measuring violence, the aim of this study is to improve understanding of criminal violence by providing a wealth of information about where homicide occurs and what is the current nature and trend, what are the socio-demographic characteristics of homicide offender and its victim, about who is most at risk, why they are at risk, what are the relationship between victim and offender and exactly how their lives are taken from them. Additionally, homicide patterns over time shed light on regional differences, especially when looking at long-term trends. The connection between violence, security and development, within the broader context of the rule of law, is an important factor to be considered. Since its impact goes beyond the loss of human life and can create a climate of fear and uncertainty, intentional homicide (and violent crime) is a threat to the population. Homicide data can therefore play an important role in monitoring security and justice.

PDO-ICZMP project is expected to deliver six outputs and have its own scope, achievements and ongoing/proposed activities. Three of the outputs together relate to key stages in coastal development: the Coastal Zone Policy (CZPo), Coastal Development Strategy (CDS) and Priority Investment Program (PIP). PIP includes investments both in physical and social infrastructure development and improvements. The PIP includes three major activities: inventory of projects (activity 3.1), development criteria for Concept Notes (activity 3.2) and series of concept notes (activity 3.3). Therefore, inventory of the projects demands for the updated information of the projects and initiatives in the coastal zone with the aim to support the formulation process of concept notes (CNs) and corresponding coordination and harmonization procedures for their proper implementation. Earlier, three inventories: a) Pre-project inventory, January 2002; b) Inventory of projects and initiatives in the Coastal Zone (update), November 2002 and c) Inventory of projects and initiatives in the Coastal Zone (update), December 2003 were made.

  • Estimation, Carbon Stock, Sylhet Basin Soils
    J. Asiat. Soc. Bangladesh, Sci. 46(1): 49-60, June 2020 ESTIMATION OF CARBON STOCK IN THE SYLHET BASIN SOILS OF BANGLADESH M.J. UDDIN*, ARAFAT RAHMAN, A.H.M. ZULFIQUAR ALI AND MD. KHALILUR RAHMAN Department of Soil, Water and Environment, University of Dhaka, Dhaka-1000, Bangladesh Abstract Wetland basin soils are the major store houses of organic carbon where there is a scope to use this carbon in mitigating the climate change. A study was conducted in these basin soils at 100 cm depth regarding their carbon stock. The study showed that total soil organic carbon (SOC) stock in the Sylhet basin soils of Bangladesh is 0.094 Pg where the SOC stock was 0.044 Pg in medium low land sites and it was about 0.050 Pg in lowland sites. There was no previous study on SOC stock in the Sylhet basin soils of Bangladesh. These may act as benchmark SOC stock datasets for the future agricultural planning. The soil organic carbon stock is higher in the lowland than medium lowland sites. The contents of SOC are low is compared to its threshold levels. Moreover, it is apprehended that basin soils may lose their carbon due to the decrease of inundation level by climate change, and other eco-environmental changes. So, it is very much urgent to take steps in preserving the organic carbon of lowland basin soils. Key words: Estimation, Carbon stock, Sylhet basin soils Introduction Soil organic carbon (SOC) is one of the main factors affecting soil quality and agricultural productivity. Being a source as well as storage of plant nutrients, SOC plays an important role in terrestrial C cycle (Freixo et al.

Alam, G.C. Datta, M.A. Miah, A.K. Sarker and M.A.R. Sunny Received 10 March 2021, Revised 18 May 2021, Accepted 23 June 2021, Published online 30 June 2021 A B S T R A C T A study was carried out to investigate climate resilience vegetable production prospect using tower gardening technology during the period of July 2017 to December 2017 in low-lying areas of northeastern Bangladesh (Sylhet and Moulvibazar). Total 24 participants of DFID and EU funded Suchana program (January-December’2017) were involved in the study. Two sizes of tower (a) medium size (4.5 feet diameter and 5.0 feet height) (b) small size (3.0 feet diameter and 4.0 feet height) and two types growing media protecting material (i.e. plastic bag & bamboo mat) were used separately to perform the study. To prepare the growing media (50%) soil, (40%) cow dung/compost and (10%) decomposed water hyacinth were used. Mainly two types of vegetables, climbers (i.e. bottle gourd and bitter gourd) and herbaceous (i.e. kangkong, Indian spinach, red amaranth and okra) were planted to conduct the study. The vegetable production was significantly influenced by tower size & growing media protecting materials and the highest vegetable production (84.35 kg tower-1 and 42.17 t ha-1) was recorded in medium size tower with plastic bag whose sold value was BDT 1968.50 tower-1 and BDT 98.43 Lac ha-1, respectively.
