What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Agriculture
- Hydrology
- Climate change
Ashraf Dewan mainly focuses on Land use, Urbanization, Vegetation, Environmental planning and Remote sensing.
His work on Agricultural land as part of general Land use research is often related to Environmental pollution, thus linking different fields of science.
His study looks at the relationship between Urbanization and topics such as Land development, which overlap with Environmental resource management, Environmental change, Environmental engineering and Land use, land-use change and forestry.
His research in Vegetation intersects with topics in Sea surface temperature, Species diversity and Habitat.
Ashraf Dewan has researched Environmental planning in several fields, including Landscape ecology, Ecosystem and Sustainability.
In his study, Elevation, 100-year flood, Flood myth and Hydrology is inextricably linked to Land cover, which falls within the broad field of Remote sensing.
His most cited work include:
- Land use and land cover change in Greater Dhaka, Bangladesh: Using remote sensing to promote sustainable urbanization (566 citations)
- Using remote sensing and GIS to detect and monitor land use and land cover change in Dhaka Metropolitan of Bangladesh during 1960-2005 (200 citations)
- Using remote sensing and GIS to detect and monitor land use and land cover change in Dhaka Metropolitan of Bangladesh during 1960-2005 (200 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His primary areas of study are Flood myth, Land use, Climatology, Hydrology and Land cover.
The concepts of his Flood myth study are interwoven with issues in Hazard, Multiple-criteria decision analysis, Flooding and Geographic information system.
His research on Land use often connects related topics like Urbanization.
Ashraf Dewan has included themes like Megacity, Land use, land-use change and forestry and Environmental planning in his Urbanization study.
His study looks at the intersection of Climatology and topics like Severe weather with Precipitable water.
His Land cover research includes themes of Vegetation, Physical geography and Remote sensing.
He most often published in these fields:
- Flood myth (18.46%)
- Land use (20.77%)
- Climatology (18.46%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2019-2021)?
- Climatology (18.46%)
- Climate change (7.69%)
- Physical geography (10.00%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Ashraf Dewan spends much of his time researching Climatology, Climate change, Physical geography, Precipitation and Land use.
His Climatology research integrates issues from Return period, Homogenization, Evapotranspiration and Growing season.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Urbanization, Urban expansion, Population size, Scale and Normalized Difference Vegetation Index in addition to Physical geography.
His Precipitation study combines topics in areas such as Ranking and Forcing.
A large part of his Land use studies is devoted to Land cover.
In his work, Flood myth, Population growth, Ensemble forecasting and Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient is strongly intertwined with Flooding, which is a subfield of Land cover.
Between 2019 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Low impact development techniques to mitigate the impacts of climate-change-induced urban floods: Current trends, issues and challenges (17 citations)
- Space-Time Patterns, Change, and Propagation of COVID-19 Risk Relative to the Intervention Scenarios in Bangladesh. (15 citations)
- The effects of changing land use and flood hazard on poverty in coastal Bangladesh (15 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Agriculture
- Climate change
- Artificial intelligence
His scientific interests lie mostly in Climatology, Climate change, Precipitation, Water resource management and Flood myth.
The various areas that Ashraf Dewan examines in his Climatology study include Return period and Growing season.
Ashraf Dewan combines subjects such as Natural hazard, Kharif crop and Precipitation index with his study of Return period.
Many of his research projects under Precipitation are closely connected to High resolution and High intensity with High resolution and High intensity, tying the diverse disciplines of science together.
His Water resource management study incorporates themes from Resource and Groundwater.
The Flood myth study combines topics in areas such as Sustainable development, Environmental planning and Urban area.
