The evolution of the Ganga-Brahmaputra delta is highly complex and remains poorly understood. To address that gap, this edited volume presents 11 research papers: the first seven chapters focus on the pure geomorphology and geohydrology of the delta, while the remaining four examine its applied geomorphological aspects. The book offers a valuable guide for geologists, geographers, hydrologists, landscape ecologists, environmentalists, engineers, planners and policy makers.Springer Geography,2194-3168GeomorphologyGeologyPhysical geographyGeomorphologyGeologyPhysical GeographyGeomorphology.Geology.Physical geography.Geomorphology.Geology.Physical Geography.551.4109541Das Balai Chandraedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtGhosh Sandipanedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtIslam Aznaruledthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtIsmail MDedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910254104603321Neo-Thinking on Ganges-Brahmaputra Basin Geomorphology2503712UNINA
