Geohazard Analysis in the Context of Bangladesh's Geomorphosites

Abstract This study aims to manage geomorphosites in hazard-prone areas sustainably by considering the spatial relationship between natural hazards and human-induced pressures. The work develops a GIS-based model to evaluate multi-hazard vulnerability at four well-known geomorphosites in Bangladesh: Cox’s Bazar, the Sundarbans, Jaflong,
