Abstract:
This study investigates the bar morphology, sediment properties and amount of sediment yield in relation to channel dynamics of the Brahmaputra-Jamuna River over a decadal timescale (1987-1997) using digital satellite images and field observations. Two typical reaches were chosen for study, representing the upper widest reach (Bahadurabad Ghat Reach) and the lower narrowest reach (Jamuna Bridge Reach) of the Brahmaputra-Jamuna River. Erosion and accretion of channel banks appears to be the root of all the processes of braiding. Channel banks of both the study reaches are more severely affected

Abstract:
Erosional issues in the Brahmaputra River in the eastern Himalayas pose increasing pressure on the nearby societies and ecosystems. With a proceeding climate change and increasing anthropogenic disturbance, predictive models are needed to evaluate the effect on sediment transport. Especially in braided rivers, like the Brahmaputra, sediment transport processes imply high demands on numerical models. The objective is therefore to assess the sensitivity of sediment transport on changed river characteristics in the Brahmaputra River, in order to qualitatively evaluate future possible dynamics. Th

Abstract:
This thesis investigates the interactions between tectonics and erosion in the eastern Himalaya through the study of paleo-Brahmaputra deposits in the foreland basin. Sediment depositional dating of two sedimentary sections is performed using magnetostratigraphy, apatite fission-track and luminescence dating. Provenance analysis using zircon and apatite U-Pb dating allows the reconstruction of the Miocene-Quaternary paleo-drainage of the Brahmaputra River and the documentation of the tectonic evolution of two poorly understood Himalayan features: the Shillong Plateau and the Namche Barwa Synta

Abstract:
A simple correlation analysis was used to investigate the linear relationships between sea surface temperature (SST) and monthly flow of Ganges and Brahmaputra at the borders of Bangladesh and India using approximately 50 years of river discharge data. Strong correlations were found between the equatorial Pacific SST and boreal summer Ganges discharge from three-month lag to two-month lead times. The El Nio-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) explains Ganges flow variance exceeding 0.95 significance level using both the Nino 3.4 SST correlation and the composites made for El Nio (La Nina) periods. T

Abstract:
With a population of over 650 million, the water resources in the Ganges - Brahmaputra - Meghna (GBM) River Basin are under enormous pressure from both climate change and increasing demands from a rapidly growing population. This thesis provides an improved understanding of the combined impacts of climate change and human water abstraction on the basin's available freshwater storage, through a combination of in-situ and satellite-based observations, state-of-the-art regional climate modelling, and hydrological modelling approaches.

Abstract:
The channels of the great rivers of Bangladesh are highly dynamic and their banklines change continuously, consuming large areas of floodplain and making thousands of people landless. As a result, bank erosion is a serious cause of poverty in Bangladesh. Severe bank retreat associated with net widening of the Jamuna, Padma and Lower Meghna Rivers during the last 50 years has greatly increased the suffering of the people. Changes in the width and planform patterns of these rivers indicate that they have not been operating in dynamic equilibrium. However, the causes of instability and planform m

Abstract:
Situated in the Bengal Basin, the Ganges-Brahmaputra river delta comprises one of the largest fluviodeltaic systems in the world, comprising ∼ 100,000 km2 of floodplain and delta plain and a 40,000 km2 subaqueous delta on the shelf. Sediment load of the Ganges-Brahmaputra river is 109 t/yr, and seasonal flooding may inundate >70% of the delta during large events. Active tectonic processes have resulted in both uplift and subsidence in this structurally complex region. These general characteristics suggest that the Ganges-Brahmaputra delta represents a heretofore undescribed delta end-member,

Abstract:
Besides climatic change, current demographic trends, economic development and related land use changes have direct impact on increasing demand for freshwater resources. Taken together, the net effect of these supply and demand changes is affecting the vulnerability of water resources systems (WRSs), in which complex interactions of the social-ecological systems are in place. Therefore, for assessing vulnerability and risk of WRSs, the integrated contribution of several disciplines is required, enabling a comprehensive, but also dynamic description of present state and future trends.

Because of the complex nature of transboundary water governance, and the inherent unpredictability of complex adaptive systems, this thesis argues that international actors alone are unable to directly bring about positive water interaction between riparian states.

Abstract:
Strontium (Sr) is an alkaline earth element that has four naturally occurring stable isotopes, 84Sr, 86Sr, 87Sr and 88Sr. During measurements of the radiogenic Sr isotope ratio (87Sr/86Sr), which is a widely used tracer in Earth sciences, the instrumental mass dependent fractionation is corrected by assuming the 88Sr/86Sr ratio as 8.375209. However, with the recent advancements in mass spectrometry, it is now possible to resolve variations in the 88Sr/86Sr ratio (expressed as δ88/86Sr) in natural samples. In this study, a measurement protocol for stable Sr isotope ratio measurements was develo
