Performance of Sweet Pepper Under Protective
INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENT Volume-3, Issue-1, Dec-Feb 2013/14 ISSN 2091-2854 Received:17 January Revised:11February Accepted:17Feburary INVENTORY OF THREATENED PLANTS OF BANGLADESH AND THEIR CONSERVATION MANAGEMENT M. Harun-ur-Rashid, M. Enamur Rashid and M. Atiqur Rahman* Department of Botany, University of Chittagong Chittagong 4331, Bangladesh *Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract The study aimed at inventorying of threatened plant species of Bangladesh to determine their status of occurrence for emphasizing the setting-up of national conservation strategies and sustainable management. Complete inventory of two families, the Apocynaceae and Vitaceae, has been made and recognized 28 threatened species facing environmental threats, and need sustainable conservation management. The study was based on long-term field investigation, survey of relevant floristic literature and examination of herbarium specimens. An enumeration of threatened taxa is prepared with updated field data on conservation status to include into Red Data Book of Bangladesh. Key words: Inventory, threatened plant species, conservation, management, Bangladesh. Introduction Global biodiversity is depleting at an alarming rate due to human interferences and environmental degradation, causing high risk of extinction. Human impact on nature has reached at such a high proportion that the world is today witnessing an unprecedented rate of species loss. Many more species are disappearing from the nature before their discovery and determination. The 1997 IUCN Red List of Threatened Plants revealed that 12.5% or c.34,000 of the world’s vascular plant species are at risk of extinction, including 7% of family International Journal of Environment ISSN 2091-2854 141 | P a g e Apocynaceae and 5% of Vitaceae (Walter & Gillett, 1998). -

Determinants of Religious Tourism: an Empirical Investigation
Journal of Business Studies, Vol. XL, No. 3, December 2019 Determinants of Religious Tourism: An Empirical Investigation Prosanjit Saha* Biplab Roy** Abstract: Religious tourism presumably the oldest form of tourism in which the tourists search for tranquility and sacred experience. Despite having promising faith centers in different parts of Bangladesh, religious tourism receives little research attention. Owing to inadequate understanding and precise portrayal of religious tourism’s products, domestic travelers often exclude religious attractions out of their usual year round itinerary. This study aims to identify major determinants for developing religious tourism in a credible way to the travelers. Through snowball sampling, 100 respondents who visited at least once to any religious sites was surveyed face to face. Descriptive statistics portrayed the demographic profile of the respondents and Regression analysis explored the influence of each determinant. The results make contribution by suggesting that unique branding and communicating religious values through social media promotion determine the success of religious tourism. Moreover, the study offered some managerial implications to develop Bangladesh as an attractive religious tourism hub. Keywords: Religious Tourism, Unique and consistent branding, interpreting religious values, sustainable policies, innovative promotion. Introduction Tourism is now considered as one of the most dominant sectors in the world consisting multifarious forms and diverse nature. One of the most sensible and prevalent forms of tourism is religious tourism. It can be defined as travel with the core motive of experiencing religious forms, or the products they induce, like art, culture, traditions and architecture. According to the Ministry of Tourism of Brazil (MTUR) (2010), “Religious Tourism is the set of tourism activities arising from the spiritual quest and religious practice in places and in events related to institutional religions, regardless of creed or ethnic origin”. -

Shofiqul Islam1* and Mohammad Moinul Hossain2 ,Md Aminul Islam3 1Department of Petroleum and Mining Engineering, Shahjalal University of Science and Technology, Sylhet 3114 Bangladesh 2Geophysical Division, Bangladesh Petroleum Exploration and Production Company (BAPEX), Dhaka, Bangladesh 3Department of Petroleum Geoscience, Faculty of Science Universiti Brunei Darussalam Jalan Tungku Link Gadong BE1410, Negara Brunei Darussalam Abstract Fenchuganj Gas Field is located in the Surma Basin of Bangladesh and characterized by water-drive gas field. In the reservoir condition, water saturation increases as gas production rise. The fluid properties of the four individual gas zones of this reservoir at the present condition and at the gas depleted condition should be addressed with proper prediction. In this paper, we characterize the total reservoir with special emphasis on Upper Gas Zone and New Gas Zone I which are compared with other two gas zones (New Gas Zone III and New Gas Zone II) representing some modeling results (has done before by these authors) which evidences that the pore fluids have a significant effect on the acoustic impedance and the Poisson’s ratio of the reservoir rock which is directly correlated with seismic amplitudes at constant pressure with Batzle-Wang model and Gassman-Boit models. -

To measure the performance of those plants, gross electricity generation was considered as output for the stochastic frontier model, whereas fuel consumption, lube oil consumption, auxiliary consumption, cost, heat rate, and hours of run were considered as input variables. Based on the log-likelihood hypothesis test, trans-log production model is preferred over Cobb–Douglas (C-D) production model for this study. *e average efficiency of the selected plants is above 90 percent, and there is Sylhet Combined Cycle Power Plant (CCPP) which has an efficiency of about 78.6 percent for truncated normal distribution.
