Dr. AFM Tariqul Islam

About

My current research interests focus on food and water security in a changing climate. The methods and techniques I usually use are Agro-geoinformatics, GCM/RCM, Crop simulation models, etc. My on-going research works are Geospatial model-based cropping pattern analysis, IoT-based precision agriculture, ICT-based irrigation advisory, RS-based crop yield prediction model, etc.
