Verified

M. Tauhid Ur Rahman, Faheemah Tabassum, Md Rasheduzzaman, Humayra Saba et al.

Journal: Environmental Monitoring and AssessmentYear: 2017Citations: 250

Change analysis of land use and land cover (LULC) is a technique to study the environmental degradation and to control the unplanned development. Analysis of the past changing trend of LULC along with modeling future LULC provides a combined opportunity to evaluate and guide the present and future l...

Modelling future land use land cover changes and their impacts on land surface temperatures in Rajshahi, Bangladesh

Verified

Abdulla ‐ Al Kafy, Md. Shahinoor Rahman, Abdullah-Al- Faisal, Mohammad Mahmudul Hasan et al.

Journal: Remote Sensing Applications Society and EnvironmentYear: 2020Citations: 249

Urbanization causes enormous land use and land cover (LULC) changes, which creates a significant impacts on land surface temperature (LST) in rapidly growing mega-cities. The substantial increment of the LST creates urban heat island (UHI) effects in cities. This study first identified the pattern o...

Surface urban heat island intensity in five major cities of Bangladesh: Patterns, drivers and trends

Verified

Ashraf Dewan, Grigory Kiselev, Dirk Botje, Golam Iftekhar Mahmud et al.

Journal: Sustainable Cities and SocietyYear: 2021Citations: 243

There is currently a lack of knowledge regarding the spatiotemporal variation of day and night surface urban heat island intensity (SUHII) in the major cities of Bangladesh. These cities have a large population base and generally lack the resources to deal with rapid urbanisation impacts, so any inc...

Land cover change detection using GIS and remote sensing techniques: A spatio-temporal study on Tanguar Haor, Sunamganj, Bangladesh

Verified

Md. Inzamul Haque, Rony Basak

Journal: The Egyptian Journal of Remote Sensing and Space ScienceYear: 2017Citations: 240

Tanguar Haor is one of the two listed Ramsar Site of this country which contains a rich amount of biodiversity as well as a highly productive ecosystem. But the valuable landscape undergoes a radical change in its form over the decades. This study uses past and recent satellite data to evaluate the ...

Prediction of seasonal urban thermal field variance index using machine learning algorithms in Cumilla, Bangladesh

Verified

Abdulla ‐ Al Kafy, Abdullah-Al- Faisal, Md. Shahinoor Rahman, Muhaiminul Islam et al.

Journal: Sustainable Cities and SocietyYear: 2020Citations: 235

The intensity and formation of urban heat island (UHI) phenomena are closely related to land use/land cover (LULC) and land surface temperature (LST) change. The effect of UHI can be described quantitatively by urban thermal field variance index (UTFVI). For measuring urban health and ensuring susta...

Growth and resilience responses of Scots pine to extreme droughts across Europe depend on predrought growth conditions

Verified

Arun K. Bose, Arthur Geßler, Andreas Bolte, Alessandra Bottero et al.

Journal: Global Change BiologyYear: 2020Citations: 234

Global climate change is expected to further raise the frequency and severity of extreme events, such as droughts. The effects of extreme droughts on trees are difficult to disentangle given the inherent complexity of drought events (frequency, severity, duration, and timing during the growing seaso...

Impact of Land Cover Changes on Land Surface Temperature and Human Thermal Comfort in Dhaka City of Bangladesh

Verified

H. M. Imran, Md Anwar Hossain, A. K. M. Saiful Islam, Ataur Rahman et al.

Journal: Earth Systems and EnvironmentYear: 2021Citations: 213

Abstract Urbanization leads to the construction of various urban infrastructures in the city area for residency, transportation, industry, and other purposes, which causes major land use change. Consequently, it substantially affects Land Surface Temperature (LST) by unbalancing the surface energy b...

The effects of changing land use and flood hazard on poverty in coastal Bangladesh

Verified

Mohammed Sarfaraz Gani Adnan, Abu Yousuf Md Abdullah, Ashraf Dewan, Jim W. Hall

Journal: Land Use PolicyYear: 2020Citations: 203

The construction of polders in the coastal region of Bangladesh has significantly modified the patterns of flooding, as well as leading to significant land use/land cover (hereinafter, LULC) changes. The impact of LULC change and flooding on poverty is complex and poorly understood. This study prese...
