Core Subject :
The International Journal of Disaster Management (IJDM) is an international, peer-reviewed, open-access journal dedicated to advancing knowledge and practice in disaster management, disaster risk reduction, and resilience. The journal provides an interdisciplinary platform for researchers, practitioners, policymakers, and professionals to address contemporary disaster risks and their implications for communities and society. IJDM publishes original research and scholarly contributions covering disaster risk reduction and management; disaster preparedness, response, recovery, and reconstruction; disaster governance and policy; disaster and risk communication; early warning systems; hazard, vulnerability, and risk assessment; community-based disaster risk reduction; climate-related hazards and adaptation; community resilience; indigenous and local knowledge; social, cultural, and psychosocial dimensions of disasters; disaster education and capacity development; geospatial and technological applications; resilient infrastructure; and interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary approaches to disaster studies. The journal particularly encourages research that connects scientific knowledge with policy and practice and contributes to reducing disaster risk and strengthening resilience across diverse geographical, social, and cultural contexts.

Abstract

Groundwater depletion is increasingly problematic in many parts of Bangladesh due to heavy reliance on aquifers for domestic, industrial, and irrigation needs. While prior studies have examined groundwater levels, extraction, recharge, and quality, little research has integrated community experiences with hydrometeorological data to understand vulnerabilities, disaster risks, and resilience related to groundwater depletion. Thus, this research aims to fill this gap by exploring the groundwater crisis in Dhakua Union, Tarakanda Upazila, Mymensingh District, using a community-based and hydrometeorological approach. We collected field data in 2023 from 100 purposefully selected households, supplemented with key informant interviews and focus group discussions. We also gathered hydrometeorological data (rainfall and temperature) for the period of 1955-2021 and analyzed the trends. Among survey participants, 100% reported increased tube-well depths and excessive groundwater withdrawal, 97% reported inappropriate withdrawal techniques, 94% reported less rainfall, and 90% attributed the crisis to intensive irrigation. The hydrometeorology study found an average annual rainfall of 2159.79 mm for 1955-2021, with varied rainfall patterns; average maximum and minimum temperatures were 33.40°C and 17.26°C, respectively. These climatic changes, coupled with excessive groundwater extraction and limited surface water, may further diminish recharge and threaten water security. The findings imply that groundwater depletion in Dhakua Union affects resource management, water security, and disaster resilience. Effective management requires evidence-based strategies, reduced dependence on groundwater, improved surface water and recharge practices, public awareness, climate adaptation, and institutional involvement.

Abstract

Floods are the most frequent natural disaster in Aceh Tamiang Regency, Indonesia, most recently causing severe loss of life during the November 2025 flash flood associated with Tropical Cyclone Senyar (101 fatalities and 252,623 evacuees; BNPB, updated 10 December 2025). Although disaster literacy and self-efficacy are established predictors of preparedness behavior, most prior studies examined them separately, leaving unclear how much they jointly explain once modeled as latent constructs. This study evaluated the measurement model and analyzed the relationship of disaster literacy and self-efficacy with flood disaster preparedness behavior in Aceh Tamiang Regency. Using a quantitative cross-sectional design, data were collected from 302 respondents across 12 sub-districts and analyzed using Covariance-Based Structural Equation Modeling (CB-SEM) with item parceling. The measurement model showed adequate validity and reliability, and acceptable overall model fit. Disaster literacy was the stronger correlate of preparedness behavior (β = 0.483, p < .001), followed by self-efficacy (β = 0.234, p < .001); together they explained 35.3% of the variance in preparedness behavior. An exploratory analysis suggested self-efficacy may partially mediate (13.1%) the literacy–preparedness relationship, though this result should be treated as preliminary given the cross-sectional design. These findings suggest that community preparedness programs in Aceh Tamiang may benefit from combining information provision with confidence-building components rather than relying on either alone
