Perception and health implications of road-traffic noise pollution in Bangladesh
Road-traffic noise pollution is a critical yet underexplored public health issue in Bangladesh. This study investigates the relationship between perceived road-traffic noise exposure and self-reported health impacts among adults. A cross-sectional online survey was conducted with 526 participants who had lived in their current location for over five years and identified road-traffic as the primary source of noise pollution. Linear regression anal…

Sustainable Tourism Pathways in the Lolab Valley, Kashmir
The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN‐SDGs) are strongly supported by sustainable tourism, which reduces environmental impacts while boosting local economies and social welfare. The Lolab Valley in northern Kashmir, India, presents a unique case study due to its exceptional natural and cultural landscape. Using a literature‐based qualitative synthesis of studies published between 2015 and 2024, this study examines the potential of …
Perceived-air pollution and self-reported health status
Air pollution is a serious health concern in rapidly developing countries like Bangladesh. This study investigates the correlation between self-reported health issues related to air pollution and perceived air pollution among adult Bangladeshis. A face-to-face questionnaire was conducted with 398 adult residents who had lived in their current location for at least 3 years. The survey assessed self-reported health using 13 specific air pollution-r…

A systematic review of the nexus between climate change and social media
Social media and climate change are some of the most controversial issues of the 21st century. Despite numerous studies, our understanding of current social media trends, popular hot topics, and future challenges related to climate change remains significantly limited. This research presents a systematic review of climate change and social media for the first time. Review the studies published between 2009 and 2022 in places like Google Scholar, …

Highland communities’ climate change perceptions, climatic shocks and livelihood practices during Covid-19 pandemic
Highland areas are more susceptible to climate change impacts. This study investigates the highland communities’ climate change perceptions, climatic hazards, and livelihood practices during the COVID-19 pandemic. Using a multi-stage random sampling technique, survey data were gathered from 425 respondents living in highland areas of Panchagarh district, a drought-prone region in Bangladesh. Perception analysis indicates that most respondents (77…
The local governance of Covid‐19
This article investigates how a district administration in Bangladesh managed COVID‐19 pandemic risk governance. Interviews were conducted with civil administrators, local government representatives, and representatives from community‐based organizations and nongovernmental organizations. The findings indicate that, despite limited health facilities, widespread ignorance of the virus, joblessness among wage earners, economic pressure, and a massi…
Livelihood and climate vulnerability of coastal communities to natural disaster in south-western Bangladesh
Bangladesh is one of the countries that is most likely to be affected by natural disasters and climate change. However, much less is known about the integrated livelihood and climate vulnerabilities of coastal communities to natural disasters in southwestern Bangladesh. Therefore, this paper proposes a holistic approach to measuring livelihood vulnerability in the southwestern coast of Bangladesh based on primary data from 300 respondents through…

Coastal Community Valorization through Patuakhali Science and Technology University
This study examined Patuakhali Science and Technology University’s impact on its neighboring rural communities. A five-point Likert-type scale survey was undertaken among university employees and community dwellers from December 2021 to June 2022. Results revealed that the university could affect its host neighborhood. Both survey groups highly agreed on improving education, eco-cultural development, and infrastructure in the host neighborhood. F…
Change in cyclone disaster vulnerability and response in coastal Bangladesh
The number of deaths owing to tropical cyclones in Bangladesh has significantly reduced. Category 4 Cyclone Gorky in 1991 and Sidr in 2007 caused 147,000 and 4,500 deaths respectively, whereas Category 1 Cyclone Mora in 2017 resulted in six. Face‐to‐face interviews with 362 residents, participant observation, and focus‐group discussions answer a research question about how change in coastal areas has contributed to this outcome. The study conside…
How Has the Recent Climate Change Affected the Spatiotemporal Variation of Reference Evapotranspiration in a Climate Transitional Zone of Eastern China
Reference evapotranspiration (ET0) is essential for agricultural production and crop water management. The recent climate change affecting the spatiotemporal variation of ET0 in eastern China continues to still be less understood. For this purpose, the latest observed data from 77 meteorological stations in Anhui province were utilized to determine the spatiotemporal variations of ET0 by the use of the Penman–Monteith FAO 56 (PMF-56) model. Furth…
Assessment of flood vulnerability of riverine island community using a composite flood vulnerability index
The devastating impact of flooding is gradually increasing worldwide including riverine islands of Bangladesh due to climate change issue. Riverine islands and coastal communities are the primary victims due to their geographical position. The riverine islands (char) of Bangladesh are frequently flooded, necessitating context-specific flood management policies and actions that require an in-depth investigation of household vulnerability level. Th…
Impact of ineffective measures on the increasing land degradation in a monsoon‐dominated region of India
Land degradation is a phenomenon that affects many environment, including drylands, resulting in a long‐term decline in ecosystems and productivity loss in agriculture. Asia has the highest ranked position in land degradation, followed by Africa and Europe, respectively. In more than 100 countries, 2.6 billion people are suffering from land degradation, and more than 33% of the Earth's land surface is under desertification. Various natural causes…
Perceived Noise Pollution and Self-Reported Health Status among Adult Population of Bangladesh
Despite the public health concern, there is a dearth of research regarding perceived noise pollution and noise-related health status in Bangladesh. This study was carried out to evaluate the noise-related health status among Bangladesh's adult population. 1386 adult Bangladeshis participated in an online survey. A linear regression model was used to evaluate overall noise-related health status determinants. 91% of the survey population reported n…
Knowledge, Attitude, and Practices towards Dengue Fever among University Students of Dhaka City, Bangladesh
Dhaka has become the worst affected city in Bangladesh regarding dengue fever (DF). A large number of university students are residing in this city with a high DF risk. This cross-sectional study was conducted to assess the DF status and responses among these students through their Knowledge, Attitude, and Practices (KAP) survey. A total of 625 students participated in an online self-reported survey. Statistical analyses were performed to assess …

Effect of Warming and Elevated O3 Concentration on CO2 Emissions in a Wheat-Soybean Rotation Cropland
A deeper understanding of the effects of experimental warming and elevated ozone (O 3 ) concentration on carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) fluxes is imperative for reducing potential CO 2 emissions in agroecosystems, but are less understood particularly in rotational wheat ( Triticum aestivum )-soybean ( Glycine max ) croplands. In order to understand such effects on CO 2 fluxes from winter wheat-soybean rotation, a field experiment was conducted by using t…
