The frequency of landslides and related economic and environmental damage has increased in recent decades across the hilly areas of the world, no exception is Bangladesh. Considering the first step in landslide disaster management, different methods have been applied but no methods found as best one...

Both natural processes and anthropogenic actions alter land use and land cover but the impact of anthropogenic actions has dramatically increased since the last century in many regions of the world. This study attempts to investigate the land cover change of the Sundarbans and surrounding areas of B...

Landslide susceptibility mapping is a common practice for landslide susceptibility assessment across the world. Like many other mountainous areas of the world, Bangladesh is facing frequent catastrophic landslides causing severe damage to the economy and society. As a result, several types of resear...

GIS and remote sensing techniques were effectively used to analyse the morphometric parameters including linear, geometric, basin texture (aerial) and relief aspects of the Halda River Basin, Bangladesh. Along with measuring the morphometric parameters using predetermined formulas, advanced geo-comp...

One of the most significant applications of remote sensing data is to prepare land use and land cover (LULC) maps. LULC maps are always affected by seasonality and a single LULC map of a particular month is prepared to represent a year in most of the research, especially in change detection research...

This paper exhibits performance of power of photovoltaic (PV) module in the case of shading effect. A comparison is made with performance of power of PV module void of MPPT solution. From the MATLAB simulation it is found that around 9.92% more average power generation is possible if MPPT (maximum p...

Abstract This study attempts to produce Landslide Susceptibility Map for Chattagram District of Bangladesh by using five GIS based bivariate statistical models, namely the Frequency Ratio (FR), Shanon’s Entropy (SE), Weight of Evidence (WofE), Information Value (IV) and Certainty Factor (CF). A seco...

Abstract Landslide is a major hazard all over the world and a very frequent phenomenon in Southeast Asian mountainous terrain. It has become a frequent phenomenon in the hilly regions of Bangladesh and the Rangamati district is the worst victims. This study aims to identify the landslide susceptible...

The seasonal cycle significantly alters the spatial extent of land cover (LC); and restricts capturing LC dynamics using a single-date satellite image. This study proposes a new method for producing a Seasonally Integrated Land Cover (SILC) by combining seasonal LCs to capture these rotational land ...
