BSc. Project: Spatial Modelling and Mapping of Soil Properties in the Raghunandan Hill Reserve, Bangladesh.

MSc. Thesis: Xylem anatomical adaptation and growth responses of Tectona grandis to drought and climate variability across two sites along a rainfall gradient.

About me: My academic journey in Forestry has been driven by a deep curiosity about how climate shapes forest ecosystems. During my M.Sc. at Shahjalal University of Science and Technology, I explored how Tectona grandis adapts anatomically and physiologically to drought and climate variability along a rainfall gradient. Through this work, I developed strong expertise in dendrochronology, wood anatomy, and climate–growth analysis. Earlier, my undergraduate research on soil property mapping in the Raghunandan Hill Reserve introduced me to geospatial modelling and strengthened my analytical skills. Combined with hands-on conservation experience under the USAID Ecosystem/Protibesh Activity, these experiences shaped my commitment to advancing forest resilience, biodiversity conservation, and sustainable management practices in Bangladesh.

BSc. Project: TreeScopeAI: high-accuracy wood species identification using a lightweight YOLOv11 model

MSc. Thesis: Project details will be updated soon.

About me: I am currently pursuing an M.Sc. in Forestry and Environmental Science at Shahjalal University of Science and Technology (SUST), Bangladesh. I have previously contributed to research on plant-soil interactions and tree water transport in tropical forests. Currently, I am focused on bridging the gap between ecology and technology by applying Artificial Intelligence to forest management. My research interests now include computer vision, deep learning, and process-based modeling for environmental monitoring.

BSc. Project: Effect of Human Disturbance on Liana Diversity and its Habitat Structure in Satchari National Park.

MSc. Thesis: Project details will be updated soon.

About me: I am a Master’s student in the Department of Forestry and Environmental Science at Shahjalal University of Science and Technology. I am particularly interested in the integration of dendrochronology and Remote Sensing to bridge the gap between individual tree growth and landscape-scale ecosystem processes. My long-term goal is to evaluate the feasibility of near real-time forest monitoring by combining historical tree-ring data with GIS-based remote sensing to provide a robust framework for adaptive forest management in the face of global environmental change.

BSc. Project: Liana Diversity and Their Host Preferences in Satcahri National Park.

MSc. Thesis: Effects of liana infestation on stem radial growth, climate sensitivity, drought tolerance and carbon sequestration in two tropical forest sites with contrasting rainfall patterns.

About me: I am a Master’s student in the Department of Forestry and Environmental Science at Shahjalal University of Science and Technology, specializing in tropical forest ecology. My research focuses on liana–tree interactions and their implications for forest structure and function. I examine how liana infestation influences stem radial growth, climate sensitivity, drought tolerance, and carbon sequestration in tropical forests with contrasting rainfall regimes. I am particularly interested in plant physiological responses to climate variability and biotic stress. Additionally, I integrate Remote Sensing and GIS approaches to analyze forest structure, spatial dynamics, and ecosystem processes across landscape scales. My long-term goal is to contribute to understanding forest resilience under global environmental change.

BSc. Project: Species-Level Stem Radial Growth variation in Tropical Trees: The Role of Xylem Anatomy, Stomatal Traits, Edaphic Factors, and Phenology.

About me: I am a Master’s student specializing in the intersection of forest phenology and climate reconstruction. For my undergraduate project, I tackled the complexities of tropical tree growth, investigating how xylem anatomy, stomatal traits, and soil factors (edaphic) drive radial stem variation. Having successfully bridged the gap between plant physiology and environmental history, I am now focusing my Master’s work on dendrochronology. I’m interested about using high-resolution wood anatomy to read the life stories of trees and better understand how tropical ecosystems respond to a changing climate.

BSc. Project: Hydraulic Regulation Across a Rainfall Gradient: Plant Hydraulic Strategies in a Moist Tropical Forest .

About me: I am a final-year student of Forestry and Environmental Science at Shahjalal University of Science and Technology (SUST), Bangladesh. I’m currently researching hydraulic regulation in tropical forests. Specifically, I’m looking at how different rainfall levels shape the way plants manage water. My goal is to understand which hydraulic strategies—like how they control their 'breathing' during dry spells—allow certain species to thrive while others struggle as climates shift.

BSc. Project: Stromal trades- offs,leaf traits coordination and radial growth across Topographic gradient in different forest region of Bangladesh.

About me: I am a final-year student of Forestry and Environmental Science at Shahjalal University of Science and Technology (SUST), Bangladesh. My research investigates the coordination between stomatal traits and leaf functional traits and how this integration drives radial growth patterns across topographic gradients in diverse forest regions of Bangladesh. I am particularly interested in plant ecophysiology, trait-based ecology, and understanding how environmental heterogeneity regulates forest productivity and climate resilience. Through quantitative trait analysis and statistical modeling in R, I aim to contribute to a mechanistic understanding of climate–trait–growth relationships in tropical forest ecosystems.

BSc. Project: Effects of Soil Properties and Organic Matter content on xylem hydraulic and leaf stomatal traits.

About me: I am an undergraduate student at Shahjalal University of Science and Technology, Sylhet, Bangladesh. Currently, I am focusing on my undergraduate project. My field of interest is the life cycle of trees.

BSc. Project: Evaluating the factors of annual Carbon sequestration through stem growth by Tree-Ring and Wood Anatomical investigation.

About me: I am a BSc(Forestry & Environmental Science) student with a keen interest in forest ecology and climate change research. My academic focus is on studying annual carbon sequestration through tree stem growth, using tree-ring analysis and wood anatomical methods. I am particularly motivated to understand how tree growth reflects environmental conditions and to apply this knowledge in sustainable forest management and climate change mitigation.

BSc. Project: Project details will be updated soon.

About me: I am an undergraduate student from the Department of Forestry and Environmental Science, Shahjalal University of Science and Technology. My research focuses on tree-ring analysis, climate sensitivity, and functional traits of tropical trees. I am passionate about understanding forest responses to environmental change.

BSc. Project: Project details will be updated soon.

About me: I am a final-year student in the Department of Forestry and Environmental Science at Shahjalal University of Science and Technology, Sylhet. I am interested in environmental research, especially in applying data science and statistical analysis to understand ecological patterns. I enjoy working with data, exploring results, and finding meaningful insights from environmental datasets. I am always eager to learn new tools and improve my analytical skills. Beyond academics, I have a deep love for nature and fieldwork. I also enjoy nature photography, as it allows me to capture and appreciate the beauty of the environment from a different perspective.
