Mike Steckler's articles Environmental Science Sailing Around the Bangladesh Coastal Zone – State of the Planet I am continuing to travel around the coastal zone of the Ganges-Brahmaputra Delta in Bangladesh repairing GNSS (GPS) instruments. The future sustainability of the delta depends on the balance of sea level rise, the sinking, or subsidence, of the land, and the deposition of sediments that can help maintain the land. My GNSS instruments can […] Written by Mike Steckler November 21, 2025November 21, 2025 Saving Bookmark this article Bookmarked Environmental Science Continuing on to Comilla, Dhaka and the Coast – State of the Planet I’m here in Bangladesh repairing my global navigation satellite system (GNSS) stations, which record the tectonic motions of the plate boundary and the subsidence of the Ganges-Brahmaputra Delta, the largest in the world. I am traveling with Adam Woolace, an EarthScope Consortium engineer and Sanju Singha and Zohur Ahmed from Dhaka University.
