Brahmaputra และ Meghna Since each of the ten basins id of vast geographical size, and represents high internal heterogeneity, we have intentionally left analyses of the internal features of the basins for further studies. Yet, we want to point out that the Ganges basin is facing a set of problems, which may even be more challenging than problems in the Indus Basin. Nevertheless, while vulnerability analyses with a higher geographical resolution would be extremely welcome, a macro – level analysis, such as the one in this study, produces quite interesting and obviously outcomes.
