About the Cover

The study aimed at modeling of climate change impacts on boro rice production in Bangladesh under CERES-Rice model using DSSAT 4.7. Eight division of Bangladesh (Barishal, Chattogram, Dhaka, Mymensingh, Rajshahi, Khulna, Rangpur and Sylhet) and two widely cultivated variety (BRRI dhan29 and BRRI dhan58) were used as treatment of the experiment. Modeling was done by DSSAT 4.7. The estimated grain yield reduction due to temperature rise was 2.6%, 6%, and 11% for BRRI dhan29 and 8.7%, 17.2% and 26.8% for BRRI dhan58 for one °C, two °C and three °C, respectively. The highest yield reduction was observed in Dhaka, Sylhet and Chattogram whereas, the lowest was observed in Rajshahi, Rangpur and Mymensingh division. Dhaka, Sylhet and Chattogram were the most vulnerable area of rice production due to climate change. However, growing long-duration variety like BRRI dhan29 might be an option to mitigate climate change impact on these regions. The yield loss was minimized by the combined effects of higher CO2 concentration and elevated air temperature.

Annual and seasonal variability of historical climatic parameters of Bangladesh

Md. Abu Zafur Al-Munsur, Md. Shahidul Islam, Ferzana Islam, Parimal Kanti Biswas, Mirza Hasanuzzaman, Md. Ismail Hossain

We analyzed the annual and seasonal variability of historical climatic parameters (temperature and rainfall) for eight divisions of Bangladesh. The linear trend of 40 years of data from 1981-to 2020 was analyzed for annual, pre-monsoon, monsoon, post-monsoon, and winter seasons. Annual maximum and minimum temperatures ranged from 29.1-32.6 °C and 19.0-23.1 °C, respectively, among the places
