The floods in Bangladesh occurred on 23 May 2022,Bangladesh is a land of many rivers, and as a result it is very prone to flooding due to being situated on the Brahmaputra River Delta (also known as the Ganges Delta) and the many distributaries flowing into the Bay of Bengal. Due to being part of such a basin and being less than 5 meters above mean sea level, Bangladesh faces the cumulative effects of floods due to water flashing from nearby hills, the accumulation of the inflow of water from upstream catchments, and locally heavy rainfall enhanced by drainage congestion. Bangladesh faces this problem almost every year. Coastal flooding, combined with the bursting of river banks is common, and severely affects the landscape and society of Bangladesh. 80% of Bangladesh is floodplain, and it

rdfs:comment	Las inundaciones en Bangladés se refieren a la tendencia del país asiático a inundarse a causa de su ubicación geográfica en el delta del río Brahmaputra, también conocido como delta del Ganges, y los numerosos distributarios que desembocan en la bahía de Bengala. Al formar parte de dicha cuenca y tener una altura menor a los 5 metros sobre el nivel medio del mar, Bangladés se enfrenta a los efectos acumulados de riadas causadas por el agua que vierten las colinas cercanas, la suma de afluencias en las cuencas altas y las fuertes lluvias locales agravadas por la congestión de los sistemas de drenaje. Son habituales las inundaciones costeras combinadas con el desbordamiento de las riberas, lo que afecta severamente al paisaje y a la sociedad de Bangladés. Un 80% del país es terreno inundabl (es) The floods in Bangladesh occurred on 23 May 2022,Bangladesh is a land of many rivers, and as a result it is very prone to flooding due to being situated on the Brahmaputra River Delta (also known as the Ganges Delta) and the many distributaries flowing into the Bay of Bengal.

Coastal flooding, combined with the bursting of river banks is common, and severely affects the landscape and society of Bangladesh. 80% of Bangladesh is floodplain, and it (en) Bangladesh är ett land i Sydasien som varje år drabbas av storskaliga översvämningar. Landet är mycket tättbefolkat och de flesta människor är tämligen fattiga. Dessa återkommande katastrofer är en stor prövning för befolkningen och varje år omkommer 100-tals, ibland 1000-tals, människor som en direkt följd av att landet läggs under vatten. Översvämningarna beror på en kombination av naturliga och mänskliga faktorer. De naturliga orsakerna är bland annat att landet ligger i Gangesdeltat och att även många bifloder mynnar ut i Bengaliska viken. Landet är också till största delen platt, vilket också är en försvårande naturlig omständighet. Till de mänskliga faktorerna hör avskogningen av Himalaya (som ökar på erosionen) och den globala uppvärmningen genom växthuseffekten. Den allmänt höga be (sv)
