英文摘要 | Geomorphological changes have had numerous environmental impacts on landscape features, natural resources, landform stability, and ecosystem services on Bhasan Char Island in the Northern Bay of Bengal, Bangladesh. Therefore, the present study examines the morphological change of the island and its impacts on landscape features, landform stability, and coastal mangrove forest resources since its evolution. Optical satellite images from Landsat (TM and OLI) spanning from 2003 to 2023 have been used to assess geomorphological parameters using the bio-physical indices NDWI and MNDWI. A hybrid classification method involving unsupervised classification, supervised machine learning, and post-classification refinement was employed to precisely delineate landscape features and evaluate ecosystem services. Indeed, to evaluate forest cover health dynamics, the leaf area index (LAI) was estimated using the Google Earth Engine (GEE) cloud platform. The study results reveal that the geomorphology of the island was changed by fluvial and marine processes and responses, whereas only 3% of the landscape ages older than 19 years. Results also disclosed that built-up area construction for Rohingya nations drastically lost similar to 7% of mangrove plantations over the last 8 years, from 2015 to 2023. The current research delivers crucial management strategies regarding further structural development by evading unplanned construction, hastening reforestation, and evolving the green belt along the existing embankment. The study findings will help policymakers, environmental managers, coastal and marine resource planners, ecologists, and geomorphologists take an eco-friendly sustainable development plan and conserve the coastal island and its landscape resources from the risk of fluvial and marine processes. |
