Assessing sponginess for urban resilience planning in metropolitan cities of Bangladesh
Urban sponginess refers to a city's capacity to absorb, store, and gradually release stormwater through blue-green infrastructure such as wetlands, ponds, and permeable surfaces. This capacity offers a promising framework for building flood resilience in rapidly urbanizing cities. Operationalizing this concept, however, requires a reliable baseline measure of sponginess to guide planning and policy decisions in flood-prone metropolitan areas. Thi…
Analyzing Spatial Variability of the Urban Heat Vulnerability Index in the Face of Climate Change Employing Geospatial Technology in Halifax, Canada
Heat waves are one of the most common weather events to occur in recent decades, posing significant threats to public health, especially in urban environments. This study employs geospatial techniques to evaluate urban heat vulnerability in the city of Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada. The heat vulnerability index (HVI) was developed through the utilization of the GIS, integrating exposure, sensitivity, and adaptive capacity measures generated using …
Remote Sensing–Based Spatiotemporal Modeling of Land Use Land Cover Changes and Associated Risks in Coastal Ecosystems
Rapid urbanization and land use and land cover changes (LULCCs) pose significant challenges to sustainable urban development and climate-resilient cities in coastal regions around the world. This study employs stochastic and numerical approaches to investigate the spatiotemporal patterns of LULCC and their socioeconomic impacts in three rapidly urbanizing coastal districts (Khulna, Satkhira, and Bagerhat) of Bangladesh from 1992 to 2022. Exploiti…
Examining the link between marginality and differential climate resilience among disaster-affected communities in southwestern Bangladesh
This article uses a case study of one of Bangladesh’s most disaster-prone subdistricts to examine the role of marginality in determining differential climate resilience. It used a quantitative research design and a household questionnaire survey to acquire data. In order to determine the contributing factors and quantify the magnitude of the influence, ordinal logistic regression is utilized in conjunction with principal component analysis (PCA).…
Evaluating community vulnerability and co-management strategies in the Sundarbans forest-dependent region of Bangladesh
The study focused on evaluating the inherent vulnerability of forest-dependent communities in Chila Union, Mongla Upazila, Bangladesh, using the Socio-economic Vulnerability Index (SeVI). The primary aim was to assess the social vulnerability of these communities that rely on the Sundarbans’ resources for their livelihoods. To achieve this, the study employed a quantitative research design that included a household survey of 100 households to gat…
Assessing the effectiveness of a rights based approach for pro-poor Wash services
Gender-responsive disaster risk reduction strategy at the community level
Evaluating Urban Services in Neighbourhoods Through the Inequality Lens in Khulna City, Bangladesh
This article delineates the development of an integrated assessment tool to understand inequality in the provision of urban services among neighbourhoods in Khulna city, Bangladesh. The study considers eight key indicators to evaluate basic urban services related to the physical environment of the city. We use primary and secondary sources of information as well as geographic information system (GIS) to summarise the results in a scientific fashi…
‘We knew a cyclone was imminent’
Evaluating resilience of coastal communities upon integrating PRISMA protocol, composite resilience index and analytical hierarchy process
Nexus Between Vulnerability, Livelihoods and Non-Migration Strategies Among the Fishermen Communities of Sundarbans, Bangladesh
This article investigates the reasons behind the non-migration of fishermen communities living adjacent to the Sundarbans in Bangladesh. In addition to the livelihood strategies of these communities living in the southern districts of the country, this article explores a symbiotic relationship among livelihoods, risks and natural resources in understanding the fishermen’s choice of locations in these vulnerable areas. We have adopted a mixed scie…

Are Historical Buildings More Adaptive to Minimize the Risks of Airborne Transmission of Viruses and Public Health? A Study of the Hazzazi House in Jeddah (Saudi Arabia)
The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has brought immense challenges to the natural and built environment to develop an antivirus-enabled model for reducing potential risks of spreading the virus at varied scales such as buildings, neighborhoods, and cities. Spatial configurations of structures may hinder or assist the spread of viruses in the built environment. In this study, we have hypothesized that suitable air ventilation in historic buildings…
Applying digital methods for documenting heritage building in Old Jeddah
Challenges of Testing Covid-19 Cases in Bangladesh
Keeping the dynamic nature of Coronaviruses (COVID-19) pandemic in mind, we have opted to explore the importance of the decentralization of COVID-19 testing centers across the country of Bangladesh in order to combat the pandemic. In doing so, we considered quantitative, qualitative, and geographic information systems (GIS) datasets to identify the location of existing COVID-19 testing centers. Moreover, we attempted to collect data from the exis…
Social vulnerability analysis for sustainable disaster mitigation planning in coastal Bangladesh
Purpose – The opportunities and potentials of the coastal zone all over the world have not received much attention, and also the disaster mitigation approaches are seen as a curative measure rather than protective, both of which raise questions about sustainable coastal belt planning and development. What is needed is a multidisciplinary approach to tackle the complexity of social systems, and patterns of vulnerability in those systems. The aim o…
