Researcher at Shahjalal university of science and technology

Research Background I am a student of Geography and environment with a strong academic interest in Physical Geography and Earth system processes. My academic background has provided me with knowledge of climatology, hydrology, geomorphology, oceanography, environmental geography, and related physical processes. Through my studies, I have developed an interest in understanding how natural processes shape landscapes and influence human-environment relationships. Research Interests My primary research interests are in Physical Geography, particularly: - Climatology and climate change — climate variability, extreme weather events, monsoon systems, and climate impacts. - Hydrology and water resources — river systems, groundwater, runoff, flooding, and watershed processes. - Geomorphology — landform development, river channel evolution, erosion, sedimentation, and landscape change. - Oceanography — ocean currents, temperature and salinity distribution, and interactions between oceans and climate. - Natural hazards — floods, cyclones, riverbank erosion, landslides, and their environmental impacts. - Environmental change — interactions between physical processes, environmental degradation, and sustainable resource management. I am particularly interested in conducting field-based and GIS/remote-sensing-supported research to understand spatial and temporal changes in physical environments. My long-term goal is to develop research skills that can contribute to better understanding of environmental processes, climate-related hazards, and sustainable management of natural resources, particularly in Bangladesh and the broader South Asian region.
