Coastal regions are vulnerable to rising seas, increasing storm magnitude, and decimation of ecologically-fragile areas. Deltas are particularly sensitive to the balance between sea-level rise, land subsidence and sedimentation that determine relative elevation. Bangladesh has been highlighted as being at risk from sea-level rise. Integrating measu...

The Mekong Delta is an important food production zone supplying rice for domestic and export markets. It is, however, highly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change. More frequent and more intense floods, salinization, water shortages and climate extremes are expected to affect the livelihood of farmers in the region. As part of the CGIAR’s Asi...

Extreme climate events such as flood, drought, and high temperature are expected to increase in frequency and intensity with climate change. Mapping and characterization of food production areas at risk can help in better targeting innovations and in enhancing the resilience of affected communities. In this study, we used two decades of the Moderat...

Assessing the suitability of different crops in specific geographic locations is crucial for optimizing crop productivity, promoting climate resilience, and guiding land use decisions. This study assessed the biophysical suitability of rice, watermelon and maize in the Ganges Delta, one of the most densely populated deltas in the world and also ext...

The relationship between climate change and conflict is a complex one, and Bangladesh is often cited as an example of a country where climate change is leading to conflict. However, the situation on Hatiya Island, a densely populated sandbar in southeastern Bangladesh, suggests that the relationship between climate change and conflict is more nuanc...

The agriculture sector contributes significantly to national greenhouse gas emissions in developing countries. Rice is a major contributor to methane emissions in Asia and many countries have recognised the potential to reduce their emissions by including rice sector targets in their nationally determined contributions (NDCs) in the Paris Agreement...

The document “Technical manual: Rice straw management towards circular economy and low emission in the Mekong Delta” introduces readers to the characteristics of rice straw, the current status of its treatment, and the management process for using rice straw in a circular way to reduce GHG emissions in rice production. This manual will be a handboo...

Assessments of fish consumption are based primarily on data from household surveys that do not capture information on the intra-household distribution of the size or species of fish consumed. Such studies can yield partial or misleading information about the adequacy of aquatic food consumption. We address this gap by focusing on individual-level f...
