Climate Change-Induced Loss and Damage of Freshwater Resources in Bangladesh
2019
Climate change loss and damage is evident in hydrological perturbations among river systems in Bangladesh. Significant disruptions include changes in the intensity, frequency, and seasonality of peak and low flow characteristics. Over the last few decades, water-related disasters conveyed through the river systems have caused increased economic damage of assets and infrastructure. Other impacts include the loss of fish spawning grounds and reduced agricultural production due to changes in the hydrological regime. This chapter discusses a broad range of generalised approaches to address water-related disasters and changes in hydrological characteristics.
