| Summary: | This paper presents the findings of a systematic literature review on coastal climatic stress, adaptation strategies, and the challenges of adapting to climate variability in coastal Bangladesh. The review aims to summarize the existing research on adaptation actions addressing climate change and to explore thematic studies related to these adaptation efforts with the purpose of providing directions for future research scope in coastal Bangladesh. The review adhered to the systematic methods outlined in the Preferred Items for Systematic Review Recommendations (PRISMA) protocol, facilitating a comprehensive synthesis, evaluation, and tracking of scientific literature on agricultural adaptation strategies in coastal Bangladesh. Peer-reviewed articles and grey literature from the Scopus and Google Scholar databases spanning 2015 to 2023 were considered. Through the rigorous application of the four main stages of a systematic review—identification, screening, eligibility, and inclusion—a total of 60 articles were selected. The adaptation actions highlighted in the review several significant challenges to agricultural adaptation in coastal regions.. This review finds the thematic studies on agricultural adaptation strategies in coastal Bangladesh, focusing on the strategies employed, the challenges, the outcomes, and the key drivers influencing their adoption. It also identifies gaps in the study of gender roles and relations that influence the effectiveness of adaptation strategies and the expected outcomes of these actions’ impact on life and livelihood to coastal farmers. Further studies are needed to explore these aspects to ensure equitable and significant adaptation outcomes. |
