Abstract

Mangrove forests serve various economic, social and environmental benefits and ecotourism in the mangrove forests is recognized as a form of nature tourism which contributes to the conservation of ecosystems and economic development. Our focus is on the sustainable development of mangrove forests and ecotourism of the mangrove forests of the Sundarbans. Modeling of mangrove forests and mangrove ecotourism of the Sunderbans for sustainable development is a formidable challenge. This research presents a system dynamics model of mangrove forests and ecotourism of the Sundarbans to address the different policy scenarios for sustainable development. The model has been simulated to address the issues of cutting cycle policy, mangrove plantation policy and the policy for capacity development and tourist promotion for conservation and future restoration of mangrove forests for sustainable ecosystem and economic development and the policy implications have also been addressed to aid policy planning and design for sustainable development of the mangrove ecosystem of the Sundarbans.

孟加拉国孙德尔本斯红树林和生态旅游建模

红树林具有各种经济、社会和环境效益，红树林生态旅游被认为是一种自然旅游，有助于保护生态系统和经济发展。我们的重点是孙德尔本斯红树林的可持续发展和生态旅游。为实现可持续发展而对孙德尔本斯的红树林和红树林生态旅游进行建模是一项艰巨的挑战。本研究提出了一个孙德尔本斯红树林和生态旅游的系统动力学模型，以应对可持续发展的不同政策情景。该模型通过模拟来解决砍伐周期政策、红树林种植政策、能力发展政策和旅游促进政策等问题，以保护和恢复红树林，促进生态系统和经济的可持续发展，并探讨了政策影响，以帮助政策规划和设计，促进孙德尔本斯红树林生态系统的可持续发展。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Coastal Conservation is a scientific journal for the dissemination of both theoretical and applied research on integrated and sustainable management of the terrestrial, coastal and marine environmental interface. A thorough understanding of both the physical and the human sciences is important to the study of the spatial patterns and processes observed in terrestrial, coastal and marine systems set in the context of past, present and future social and economic developments. This includes multidisciplinary and integrated knowledge and understanding of: physical geography, coastal geomorphology, sediment dynamics, hydrodynamics, soil science, hydrology, plant and animal ecology, vegetation science, biogeography, landscape ecology, recreation and tourism studies, urban and human ecology, coastal engineering and spatial planning, coastal zone management, and marine resource management.
