其他摘要:Impacts of sea level rise in Bangladesh were assessed using data from secondary sources. The review study reveals that one meter sea level rise will affect the vast coastal areas and flood plain zone of Bangladesh. Both livelihood options of coastal communities and the natural environment of the coastal areas will be affected by the anticipated sea level rise, which will also affect food security of the country. The ecosystem of the Sundarban mangrove forest will be totally lost with one meter rise in sea level. An integrated combined effort of Bangladesh Government, local people and International communities and stakeholders are indispensable for the survival of the coastal communities and ecosystem of southern areas of Bangladesh.
