A classic South Asian saga set in Calcutta and the Sundarbans, an archipelago of islands in the Bay of Bengal. This renowned stretch of mangrove forest is currently being shaped by the tides, which can reach more than 100 miles inland. And, by the wilds – from crocodiles to man-eating tigers, other animals rule the land.<\/p>\n

When a small ship arrives in 2001, to conduct an ecological survey, scientists examine the sociocultural fabric of a land constantly shaped by the \u2018hungry tide\u2019 of water.<\/p>\n

How can we learn from the role water plays in the form of the ocean, in terms of projected climate change?<\/em><\/p>\n
