The topography of Bangladesh is frequently altered due to floods.

<u>Explanation</u>:

Even though Bangladesh is a small country, it has considerable topographic diversity.
It has three prominent features - a large alluvial plain subject to frequent flooding, a slightly elevated relatively older plain and a small hill region drained by flashy rivers.
Bangladesh experiences heavy monsoon rains, especially over the highlands.
Causes of flooding in Bangladesh include -

i. monsoon climate which brings heavy rains.

ii. spring snow-melt which results in soil erosion and a rapid increase in river discharge.

ii. deforestation in head water areas due to increasing population in Nepal and Tibet.

iv. rivers slit-up due to increased soil erosion which raises river beds and lowers the capacity of the channel resulting in floods.

What is the importance of the atmosphere for man

Gnom [1K]

The atmosphere is important for many reasons. Before we talk about why it is important we should define what the atmosphere is. The atmosphere is the layer of air that surrounds a planet. Earth has an atmosphere that is just right for humans, animals, and plants to live in. The gases in the atmosphere act like a blanket keeping our planet warm plus the atmosphere contains oxygen something we (humans and animals) all need to breathe.

Many planets in our solar system have a atmosphere. Venus for example has such a thick atmosphere most of the sun's energy gets trapped making the surface of Venus 864 degrees Fahrenheit! That is hotter than an oven! Mars also has an atmosphere but it is too thin making the surface of Mars -80 degrees Fahrenheit! Plus the atmospheres of Venus and Mars do not contain the oxygen we all need to breathe.

Our atmosphere allows just enough of the sun's energy back into space so that we do not get to hot like Venus or too cold like Mars. If Earth had no atmosphere, apart from having no air to breathe, the surface of the Earth would be 0 degrees Fahrenheit.

These are just two of the reasons why are atmosphere is important. The atmosphere contains the warmth we all need to survive, the oxygen we all breathe, and carries the rain we all need. Without our atmosphere life as we know it would cease to exist.
