The Ganges-Brahmaputra Delta is one of the … The Ganges-Brahmaputra Delta is one of the largest deltas in the world. In Bangladesh alone, 160 million people live in the floodplains. The Ganges and Brahmaputra Rivers and their delta are strongly impacted by the Asian summer monsoon. Widespread hazards relate to the intense seasonal rainfall: flooding, river erosion and channel switches. The people of Bangladesh have adapted to this dynamic delta system by raising villages above the annual flood level and embanking agricultural land.<br><br></br></br>Still, the lowlands of the Ganges-Brahmaputra Delta are considered one of the regions most at risk from climate change, and particularly from sea level rise. About 75 million people live in the GB coastal zone (defined as the region <10 m.a.s.l). It is thought that the impact of relative sea-level change will be profound in Bangladesh where 32% of the country is already affected by tides, salinization, and cyclones/storm surges. At the same time, the Ganges-Brahmaputra river system drains tremendous amounts of sediment (sand, silt and clay) from its steep Himalayan hinterland. We ask: how does this amount of sediment change with a changing monsoonal climate? Does this sediment aggrade fast enough to help counteract rapid sea-level rise?rade fast enough to help counteract rapid sea-level rise? +

Follow these steps:</br><br></br>>> Open a new browser window and go to: https://pymt.readthedocs.io/en/latest/examples.html</br></br>>> You will see that there are several example models. In this lab we will select the HydroTrend model.</br></br>>> Click on the "Launch Binder" button to run this lab.</br></br>Note that Binder is a free and popular service for running Jupyter Notebooks, so it can be slow to load at times.</br></br>The HydroTrend model is run with the Python Modeling Tool, ''pymt''.
