Bangladesh I: Climate Change Impacts, Mitigation and Adaptation in Developing Countries
暫譯: 孟加拉國 I：氣候變遷影響、緩解與發展中國家的適應

本書的目的是提供科學家和地方政府資訊，以幫助他們更好地理解當地氣候的特性。氣候變遷是社會面臨的最大挑戰之一。它可能對全球的生產、生活和環境造成嚴重影響。氣溫上升和海平面上升將導致洪水和水鹽度問題，這將對農業產生負面影響，並對未來的工業和社會經濟系統帶來高風險。氣候變遷導致全球發展和安全的許多變化，特別是在能源、水資源、食品、社會、就業、外交、文化、經濟和貿易等方面。政府間氣候變化專門委員會（IPCC）將氣候變遷定義為：「隨著時間的推移，無論是由於自然變異還是人類活動所造成的任何氣候變化。」全球氣候變遷已成為政治和經濟領域的關鍵議題。這是一個日益受到質疑的現象，世界各地的進步國家政府已開始採取行動以應對這些環境問題。

Dr. Md. Nazrul Islam is an Associate Professor of the Department of Geography and Environment in Jahangirnagar University, Dhaka-1342, Bangladesh. His fields of interest are environmental and ecological modeling of climate change impact on aquatic ecosystem, phytoplankton transition, harmful algae and environmental management of marine ecosystems regarding to deal with hydrodynamic ecosystems coupled model on coastal sea, bay and estuaries, application of computer based programming for numerical simulation modeling etc. He did his Ph.D. (Ecological Modeling) at Graduate School of Engineering from the University of Tokyo, Japan entitled "Numerical Simulation Modeling on the Transition of Dominant Algae and Toxin Production Mechanism Harmful Algae in Aquatic Ecosystems." Besides, he has completed two years standard JSPS Postdoctoral Research Fellow on Marine Ecosystems and Engineering from the University of Tokyo, Japan with a novel and interesting research on 'Numerical simulation of the effects of radioactive pollutants from Fukushima nuclear accident on marine ecosystem by integrating MEC and ECOPATH model at Kamaishi Bay, Pacific Coast in Japan'. Dr. Nazrul also visited as faculty member and invited speakers in several foreign Universities of USA, Australia, UK, Canada, China, South Korea, Germany, France, the Netherlands, Taiwan and Vietnam etc. Dr. Islam has been awarded "Best Young Researcher Award 2012" by the International Society of Ecological Modeling (ISEM) for the outstanding contribution to the Ecological Modeling fields and he has also been awarded "Best Paper Presenter Award" entitled 'Cyanobacteria Bloom and Toxicity of Lake Kasumigaura in Japan' by SautaiN in Kyoto, Japan. He has made more than 40 scholarly presentations in more than 25 countries around the world, authored more than 50 peer-reviewed articles and authors of 15 books and research volumes. Currently he is going to publish (jointly with Late Prof. Sven Erik Jorgensen) by the CRC press (Taylor & Francis) approved book "Environmental Management of Marine Ecosystems." Dr. Islam is presently honored as an "Executive Editor-in-Chief" of the journal "Modeling Earth Systems and Environment," Springer International Publications (Journal no. 40808).

Md. Nazrul Islam 博士是孟加拉國達卡的賈漢基爾大學地理與環境系的副教授。他的研究領域包括氣候變遷對水生生態系統的環境與生態建模、浮游植物轉變、有害藻類以及海洋生態系統的環境管理，特別是針對沿海海域、海灣和河口的水動力生態系統耦合模型的研究，以及基於計算機的數值模擬建模應用等。他在日本東京大學工程研究所獲得博士學位（生態建模），論文題目為「水生生態系統中優勢藻類轉變及其毒素產生機制的數值模擬建模」。此外，他還在日本東京大學完成了為期兩年的標準JSPS博士後研究，專注於海洋生態系統與工程，研究題目為「通過整合MEC和ECOPATH模型，數值模擬福島核事故放射性污染物對日本太平洋岸釜石灣海洋生態系統的影響」。Nazrul 博士曾作為教職員和受邀演講者，訪問過美國、澳大利亞、英國、加拿大、中國、南韓、德國、法國、荷蘭、台灣和越南等多所外國大學。Islam 博士因在生態建模領域的傑出貢獻而獲得國際生態建模學會（ISEM）頒發的「2012年最佳青年研究者獎」，並因其論文「日本霞浦湖的藍藻暴發及其毒性」獲得日本京都SautaiN頒發的「最佳論文演講者獎」。他在全球25個國家發表了超過40場學術演講，撰寫了超過50篇同行評審的文章，並是15本書籍和研究專著的作者。目前，他將與已故的Sven Erik Jorgensen教授共同出版由CRC出版社（Taylor & Francis）批准的書籍《海洋生態系統的環境管理》。目前，Islam 博士擔任《地球系統與環境建模》期刊的執行主編，該期刊由Springer International Publications出版（期刊編號40808）。
