Saiful Islam, IWFM, BUET Workshop on CLIMATE CHANGE AND HEALTH: IMPACTS TO ADAPTATION held at ICDDRB, Dhaka, 1-3 December 2015 Climate change science-models, past trends and future projection Dr. A.K.M. Saiful Islam Professor Institute of Water and Flood Management (IWFM) Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology (BUET)
2 Outline Global Warming and Green house effect Climate Change Predictions Potential Impact of Climate Change Responsibility?

5 Green house gases CO 2 and some other minor gases 1. Absorb some of the thermal radiation leaving the surface of the earth. 2. Emit radiation from much higher and colder levels out to space. These radiatively active gases are known as greenhouse gases. They act as a partial blanket for the thermal radiation from the surface which enables it to be substantially warmer than it would otherwise be, analogous to the effect of a greenhouse.

23 Predictions by Climate Models Climate models are computer-based simulations that use mathematical formulas to re-create the chemical and physical processes that drive Earth s climate. To run a model, scientists divide the planet into a 3- dimensional grid, apply the basic equations, and evaluate the results. Atmospheric models calculate winds, heat transfer, radiation, relative humidity, and surface hydrology within each grid and evaluate interactions with neighboring points. Climate models use quantitative methods to simulate the interactions of the atmosphere, oceans, land surface, and ice.

35 Possible Climate Change Impact for Bangladesh Increase of intensity and duration of natural disasters such as floods, Cyclones and Storm Surges. Increase of moisture stress (droughts) due to erratic precipitation Salinity intrusion due to Sea Level Rise Inundation due to sea level rise leading towards Climate Refugees Effect on health and livelihood of coastal people. Effect on Bio-diversity, Ecology & Sundarbans. Hampered Food Security & Social Security.

45 Summary of changes of riverine floods of Bangladesh in Brahmaputra river basin The uncertainty for pre-monsoon flow maintain through the end century which is very high. But the confidence level for increasing monsoon flow are more prominent. Majority of the model predicts future monsoon flow will be increase by 5 to 10%.
