A speleothem δ(18)O record from Xiaobailong cave in southwest China characterizes changes in summer monsoon precipitation in Northeastern India, the Himalayan foothills, Bangladesh, and northern Indochina over the last 252 kyr. This record is dominated by 23-kyr precessional cycles punctuated by pro...

The initiation and evolution of a kilometre‐scale, sand braid‐bar was monitored during a 28‐month survey period from 1993 to 1996 in one of the world’s largest braided rivers, the Jamuna River, Bangladesh. Repeated bathymetric surveys through two monsoon flood seasons, combined with bar‐top surveys ...

Abstract The three-dimensional subsurface alluvial architecture of a large (approximately 3 km long, 1 km wide, 12 m high), mid-channel sand braid bar in the Jamuna River, Bangladesh is described. Evolution of the bar and its depositional characteristics are assessed from a unique combination of gro...

Abstract Bangladesh consists mainly of riverine and deltaic deposits of three large and extremely dynamic rivers entering the country: the Brahmaputra, Ganges and Meghna rivers. The average flood discharges of these rivers (individually) are within the range of 14,000 to 100,000 m3/s. Islands and ba...

The latest Paleocene-middle Eocene Subathu Formation and the Oligocene-Miocene Dagshai and Kasauli Formations of the Indian foreland basin record the early evolution of the Himalayan fold-thrust belt. Sandstone petrography of the Subathu Formation shows a predominantly recycled sedimentary source, w...

Being one of the most vulnerable regions in the world, the Ganges-Brahmaputra-Meghna delta presents a major challenge for climate change adaptation of nearly 200 million inhabitants. It is often considered as a delta mostly exposed to sea-level rise and exacerbated by land subsidence, even if the lo...

Detailed early chartmaking by the British East India Company and the Royal Navy in India and present-day Bangladesh provide one of the most accurate databases available to track the evolution of a major delta front over the last 200 years. Digital databases of shoreline position and shallow bathymet...

The Indo-Gangetic aquifer is one of the world's most important transboundary water resources, and the most heavily exploited aquifer in the world. To better understand the aquifer system, typologies have been characterized for the aquifer, which integrate existing datasets across the Indo-Gangetic c...
