Nasa recently took an open-science initiative called the Earth Information System (EIS) Freshwater, and among its various components (wildfire hydrology, risk of flooding, water security, AI application), it is looking into the flooding impact of climate change and human activities in the Bengal delta, which includes the country of Bangladesh.

Field measurements in complex estuarine systems are not always adequate to characterise the hydrodynamic behaviour of these systems and the degree to which they are affected by seawater intrusion. The model MIKE21 was used to examine the hydrodynamic regime and degree of seawater intrusion in the Shatt Al-Arab estuary under three scenarios. The model was calibrated using field measurements of vertical salinity distribution and flow that were obtained in 2013, 2014 and 2016 from a boat at six stations along the main channel. These parameters were utilised to simulate the relationship between fr...
