Age trajectories for personality traits are known to be similar across cultures. To address whether stereotypes of age groups reflect these age-related changes in personality, we asked participants in 26 countries (N = 3,323) to rate typical adolescents, adults, and old persons in their own country....

Information collected from Focus Group Meetings (FGMs) and key informant interviews (KIIs) from Ramgati Upazilla of Lakshmipur District, Bangladesh, shows that once household members have lost their homes to riverbank erosion, they rarely migrate to distant places and stay in their immediate vicinit...

This study investigates coastal erosion, revetment as a shoreline protection strategy, and human perceptions of revetments in the Lower Meghna estuary of the Bangladesh where new revetments were recently constructed. Questions addressed were: (1) How do rates of shoreline change vary over the period...

Coasts and coastlines in many parts of the world are highly dynamic in nature, where large changes in the shoreline position can occur due to natural and anthropogenic influences. The prediction of future shoreline positions is of great importance in the better planning and management of coastal are...

This research investigates the spatiotemporal dynamics of shoreline change and associated population impacts in deltaic Bangladesh. This region is among the world’s most dynamic deltas due to monsoon precipitation that drives tremendous discharge and sediment volumes from the Ganges–Brahmaputra–Megh...

Coastal erosion is one of the most significant environmental threats to coastal communities globally. In Bangladesh, coastal erosion is a regularly occurring and major destructive process, impacting both human and ecological systems at sea level. The Lower Meghna estuary, located in southern Banglad...

Coastal residents of Bangladesh are now confronted with the increased incidence, variability, and severity of weather-related hazards and disasters due to climate change-induced sea level rise (SLR). Many researchers hold the view that as a consequence residents of such area have either already migr...

Abstract Riverbank erosion is a common hazard in Bangladesh, posing a significant threat to homes, properties, and livelihoods. In recent years, the government of Bangladesh has intensified efforts to mitigate riverbank erosion by hardening shorelines, including the building of concrete revetments, ...

Understanding seasonal precipitation input into river basins is important for linking large-scale climate drivers with societal water resources and the occurrence of hydrologic hazards such as floods and riverbank erosion. Using satellite data at 0.25-degree resolution, spatial patterns of monsoon (...

Abstract Background Medulloblastoma (MB) is a malignant tumour of the cerebellum which can be classified into four major subgroups based on gene expression and genomic features. Single cell transcriptome studies have defined the cellular states underlying each MB subgroup, however the spatial organi...

In the Indian subcontinent, students pay utmost importance to choosing a career as it determines people’s status in society. The notion of the research was to explore the influence of socioeconomic status on students’ career choices. A survey was administered among tertiary level students of Banglad...

A recently funded US National Science Foundation project seeks to investigate monsoon variability within the Ganges-Brahmaputra-Meghna (GBM) river basin as a potential predictor for annual shoreline erosion rates in the lower coastal delta region. Many previous studies have examined the interannual ...

Three-dimensional images of the cerebral ventricles may now be generated from routine serial axial or coronol noncontrast CT scans in 5-8 min and rotated in space interactively in 2-5-s to provide the physician with useful views of anatomic relationships difficult to depict in other ways.

<p>Coastal erosion is one of the major natural hazards issue throughout the world. Due to erosion, people living in the coast lose their houses, land, and livelihood. Due to anthropogenic and climatic influences, it is predicted that the erosion will be increased in the future. With an...

Abstract In the fight to eliminate malaria from its borders, Bangladesh continues to have the disease entrenched in 13 of its 64 districts, and the mechanisms that explain the persistence of malaria particularly in the Chittagong Hill Tracts (CHTs) are poorly understood. Previous work in other study...
