Deltas, the low-lying land at river mouths, are sensitive to the delicate balance between sea level rise, land subsidence and sedimentation. Bangladesh and the Ganges-Brahmaputra Delta (GBD) have been highlighted as a region at risk from sea-level rise, but reliable estimates of land subsidence have...

Abstract We are able to decipher the tectonic evolution of the Bay of Bengal, a puzzle which has not been satisfactorily solved in the past, and we are also able to shed new light on origin of the buried 85°E Ridge. We do so by incorporating a number of disparate items into a unified solution. These...

The set of active rivers of the Ganges-Brahmaputra-Meghna (GBM) Delta in Bangladesh overlies an active plate boundary that continually modifies the landscape of the delta by deformation. The response of rivers to spatially variable subsidence, from tectonic tilting or other causes, has been thought ...

Sequence stratigraphy emphasizes changes in stratal stacking patterns in response to varying accommodation and sediment supply through time. Certain surfaces are designated as sequence or systems tract boundaries to facilitate the construction of realistic and meaningful palaeogeographic interpretat...

Deep‐water strata of the Lower Ordovician of the Lévis Formation (Middle Cambrian‐lower Middle Ordovician) exposed in and around the Lévis‐Lauzon area of southern Québec, eastern Canada, contain a well preserved ichnofauna dominated by simple horizontal burrows of Planolites Nicholson, Alcyonidiopsi...

Natural disaster is a common phenomenon in Bangladesh. Almost every year Bangladesh suffers highly by different kinds of disasters like flood, tropical cyclones, tornados, tidal surges, droughts and large scale river erosion etc. Bangladesh is a low lying delta with very gentle slopes. It is located...

One of the multifaceted features of the Earth's surface is the shoreline, which is always changing and has enhanced economic and environmental values. This paper highlights the shoreline of Bangladesh's southeast coast from 1980 to 2020 with a 10-year interval to automatically extract the shoreline ...

Avulsion of rivers from one course to another may result in metamorphosis of channel pattern. The Brahmaputra River, a large sand-bed braided river, avulsed into its present course along the Jamuna channel over 100yr ago. Cartographic evidence indicates that the avulsion was gradual rather than inst...

The Bengal Basin evolved as a rift-controlled extensional basin along the NNE-SSW trending Basin Margin Fault coevally with the 85° East Ridge in the Bay of Bengal during the short-lived hotspot activity south of Bhubaneswar. The basin opening post-dated the Kereguelen Plume magmatism (at ~116 Ma), ...

The intertidal zones are well recognized for their dynamic nature and role in near-shore hydrodynamics. The intertidal topography is poorly mapped worldwide due to the high cost of associated field campaigns. Here we present a combination of remote-sensing and hydrodynamic modeling to overcome the l...
