Biography

I'm pursuing an academic and research career in the field of Natural Sciences: Forest Ecology and Natural Resource Management (Biodiversity Conservation and Management) in the face of global climate change! I completed my Bachelor and Masters Degree in Forestry from Institute of Forestry and Environmental Sciences, University of Chittagong, Bangladesh. I finished my doctorate degree “Doctor of Natural Sciences (Dr. rer. nat.)” from Department of Biogeography, University of Bayreuth, Germany. My specialization focuses on landscape ecology, biodiversity conservation, biological invasions. ecological economics, and climate change. I am devoted to understanding and analyzing the most important and consequential concerns of Natural Sciences to meet the SDGs: Biodiversity Conservation and Landscape Ecology of the 21st century at different tropical and sub-tropical forest ecosystems in Bangladesh. During the last few years, I have developed an increasingly intensive publication activity and was very engaged to work out conceptual approach based on recent scientific progress and integrating novel approaches in natural sciences.
