This effort will require an integrated approach and Helena Calado a commom base for knowledge sharing. Geo technologies provide this platform. Spatial representation of maritime uses and activities, as well as resources distribution is a challenging theme. The geo references to different dimensions are more complex and still a developing subject. Looking at this book we can have a glimpse of this complexity by the different subjects that our authors provided: from administrative layers to marine bird areas, we have a world of spatial representations of marine sectors and themes. These papers present the base for marine spatial planning: the resources, the problems, the conflicts and the management guidelines to face them. Being sector based or thematically approach they will be fundamental to provide the ultimate piece that a marine spatial planner aims: the zoning map. Probably the first zoning map for Ocean Space, was produced with “Tordesilhas Treaty” were Portugal and Spain divided the world, in an imaginary line in the Ocean, to be discovered and colonies to be claimed. The world is far more complex now! But we know the world can not be divided, as also marine uses and activities. Management schemes, Zoning maps, conflict solving Rules, Codes of conduct, they all rely on the same basis: the human need to solve their problems, face their limitations and aim for a better, healthier and vibrant future for next generations. This path is made of several steps on integration, sharing, commitment and science based. 7 Foreword Perched upon the long, wavy spine we science constitutes the raw material for call the Middle Atlantic Ridge, barely the construction of our understanding visible on the map and easily overlooked of the dynamics of the systems, and amidst the blue of the depth charts, the it is in the realm of the geographical Azores islands are, nevertheless, the sciences that those bits are chewed, epitome of what science really becomes: digested, integrated.

  • Waterlogging Situation Analysis, August 31, 2016
    Waterlogging Situation Analysis, August 31, 2016 Overview of Waterlogging in Jessore 2016 Heavy rainfall in the 2nd week of August caused waterlogging in three upazilas (Keshabpur, Abhaynagar and Manirampur) of Jessore district. In these upazilas, the excessive rain water caused waterlogging in, put together, 28 unions ( all unions of Keshabpur upazila, namely, Keshabpur sadar, Gaurighona, Sufalakati, Majidpur, Panjia, Bidyanandakati, Mangalkot, Sagardari and Trimohi; Sundoli, Paira, Siddirpasha, Shridharpur, Noapara and Rajghat under Abhaynagar upazila; Shyamkul, Kulutia, Haridaskhati, Hariharnagar, Kheda Para, Chaluhati, Khanpur, Jhanpa, Nehalpur, Durbadanga, Dhakuria, Maswimnagar and Manoharpur under Manirampur upazila) and two municipalities i.e. Keshabpur paurashava and Noapara paurashava. It inundated crop fields, dwelling areas, fish enclosures, educational institutions, temples, mosques and roads as well as displaced the affected people. Impact on Life and Livelihood 10 people were killed due to snake bite. According to the D - Form, nearly 267,511 people are affected in three upazilas. A significant number of the affected people (14,272) are displaced from their houses and faced difficulties to access safe water, sanitation facilities and shelters. They also suffered due to the disruptions in their livelihoods, communication system and education, as well as serious damages to crops. Table 1: Damage due to waterlogging Sl.

The outcaste people are forced to live sub-human life because of the existing socio-economic and political power structure. Therefore, promotion of human rights status of the outcaste people in southwestern region of Bangladesh remains to be considered as a priority issue by the development activists and agencies.

    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.

  • How Seasonal Fish Biodiversity Is Impacting Local River Fisheries and Fishers Socioeconomic Condition: a Case Study in Bangladesh
    Journal of Survey in Fisheries Sciences 7(2) 79-103 2021 How seasonal fish biodiversity is impacting local river fisheries and fishers socioeconomic condition: A case study in Bangladesh Momi M.M.A.1,2; Islam M.S.1; Farhana T.3; Iqbal S.4; Paul A.K.2; Atique U.4,5* Received: May 2020 Accepted: November 2020 Abstract River fisheries are critical to ensure the sustainable provision of quality food and nutrition as well as economic stability of the millions of local populations in developing nations. The Fakirni River is home to a diversity of fish species. Here, we present the status and seasonal abundance of fish species in the Fakirni River and their impact on the fishermen's livelihood compared to other small rivers in Bangladesh. Monthly sampling was carried out using a lift net, and a total of 26 fish species belonging to 18 genera, ten families, and six orders were recorded during 12 months. The Shannon-Weiner diversity, species richness, evenness index, dominance, Simpson index, Brillouin index, equitability, and Berger- Parker indices provided 1.61±0.47, 1.93±0.53, 0.52±0.41, 0.29±0.17, 0.70±0.17, 1.47±0.41, 0.68±0.17, and 0.42±0.18, respectively. The Bray-Curtis similarity cluster analysis was performed among the diversity indices and observed three available fish species. Almost all the fishermen (91%) were Muslim of age 38.67±15.05 years and possessed fishing experience for 19.94±15.42 years, with a monthly income of BDT 4166.67±1331.85.

  • Contributions of Agroforestry Practice Towards Reducing Poverty at Keshabpur Upazila of Jessore District – a Case Study
    J. Environ. Sci. & Natural Resources, 5(2): 267 - 274 , 2012 ISSN 1999-7361 Contributions of Agroforestry Practice Towards Reducing Poverty at Keshabpur Upazila of Jessore District – A Case Study M. W. Islam, M. M. Islam and M. N. Sadath Forestry and Wood Technology Discipline, Khulna University, Khulna 9208, Bangladesh Abstract The systematic agroforestry practice is being popular day by day in Jessore district of Bangladesh. Considering the situation, the present study aims to know the farmers’ attitude and perception about agroforestry practice and to find out the potentialities of agroforestry to reduce poverty at the study area viz., Keshabpur upazila of Jessore district. Mixed method by using semi- structured questionnaires was followed in the field survey. The results illustrated that the respondents preferred agricultural practice (average 58.45% of their total lands) as their major land use followed by homestead and agroforestry land uses (31.75%). Agroforestry was getting popularity as well as socially and ecologically acceptable at this area due to the diversified outcomes of this practice. The small land holders (possession >1 acre) were the most interested among the respondents to practice agroforestry. The less poor agroforestry farmers’ change of income was also higher than the poor farmers. The increased production and income facilitated the villagers to reduce their poverty to some extent and thus they had better access to their daily necessities which helped them to attain a minimal standard of living. Key words: Agricultural crops, Households, Income, Land use, Perennial crops, Perception Introduction (upper line) (Anon, 2010). As the population of this area is increasing day by day so agroforestry can be Bangladesh has 2.46 million ha of forestland covering an important land use system to meet the demand of about 17% of the country’s area.

There are many small collections in different parts of Asia, but the only garden of great interest is at Alipore, Calcutta , supported chiefly by gate-money and a contribution from government, and managed by an honorary committee. Mir Jafar, the nominee of the English, was created nawab of Bengal, and by the treaty which raised him to this position he agreed to make restitution to the Calcutta merchants for their losses. Apart from the large number of early terracottas belonging to Maurya, Sunga, Saka-Kushana and Gupta periods, the burnt clay and bricks depicting various stories from the epics and mythology, usually used for the decoration of the facades and outer walls of the temples of Bengal in late medieval periods reveal a wide repertory and an extensive variety of terracotta work of Bengal.
