Abstract:

Sundarban is the largest mangrove wetland in the world. It covers an area of about 1mha, of which 60% is located in Bangladesh and the remaining western portion, comprising 40%, lies in India. Mangrove ecosystems are of great ecological significance in the tropical and sub-tropical coast. They protect our coast from heavy wind, tidal waves, coastal erosion and sea water intrusion, generate substantial quantities of fishery resources and provide many useful forestry products. The Sundarban ecosystem supports rich fisheries diversity. This ecosystem support 27 families and 53 species of pelagic

Abstract:

The Bay of Bengal's Sundarbans, the biggest area of mangrove forest, are home to a diverse range of plant and animal species that serve the local community on an ecological, environmental, and economical level. Increased human activity, industrialization, and climate change have all had a major impact on the Sundarbans' biodiversity in recent years. They have also changed the natural equilibrium and endangered the ecosystem and its species.

Abstract:

Sundarban, the world biggest mangrove forest, was announced as a World Heritage in 1997 and Ramsar Site in 2007. It's 62% lies in Bangladesh (Khulna, Bagerhat, Satkhira, Pirojpur, and Barguna Regions) and 38% in India, which become a vanguard for coastal communities. This ecosystem's floral and faunal structure incorporates 334 floral, 300 birds, 120 fish, 35 reptiles, and 32 mammals species. It contributes 41% of the total forest income of Bangladesh. This paper is intended to recognize the significant reasons for biodiversity calamity and its related effects on lives and degradation of the e

Abstract:

Tidal estuaries constrained by embankments in the Sundarbans have failed to respond to a &gt;1 m sea level rise over the past 100 years since their construction. This paper shows that this has led to a disequilibrium morphology leading to channel erosion that has undermined embankments, causing mass failure, breaching and subsequent flooding during surge events. Predicted future sea level rise will exacerbate this trend and managed realignment of embankments will be needed to accommodate it. Management practices have, however, modified this underlying process of erosion. The increasing pra

This paper analyses the design process that addresses the ecological consideration and architectural factors with local indigenous materials so that nature-based tourism can be more encouraged and feasible towards sustainable development. The case study is the Sundarbans, which is a mangrove forest and coastal wetland with a complex ecosystem formed by a variety of plants and animals. Due to its diversity, ecosystem richness and uniqueness, this contiguous block has a huge impact on both local and global environment and is significant among researchers, conservationists and nature lovers.

The Sundarban is a national park, biosphere reserve and tiger reserve in West Bengal, India. Pakhiralaya village is a part of Sundarban and it located exact opposite to the buffer area of Sundarban reserve forest. This village has its unique natural beauty and it is far from the noise of the city. But this area is suffering from backwardness and is one of the underdeveloped villages in Gosaba block. The main reasons for being backward are illiteracy, age old beliefs, unemployment, engagement with primary economic activities and lack of infrastructure. The overall backwardness of this village s

The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and their corresponding targets are significantly interconnected, with many interactions, synergies, and trade-offs between individual goals across multiple temporal and spatial scales. This paper proposes a framework for the Integrated Assessment Modelling (IAM) of a complex deltaic socio-ecological system in order to analyze such SDG interactions. We focused on the Sundarban Biosphere Reserve (SBR), India, within the Ganges-Brahmaputra-Meghna Delta. It is densely populated with 4.4 million people (2011), high levels of poverty, and a st
