本研究的重点是孟加拉贾穆纳河漫滩居民应对河岸侵蚀灾害的人类调整策略的特点。通过对547个随机抽取的家庭进行抽样调查，研究发现，在社区层面采取的策略属于预防类，而在个人层面采取的调整措施更多地属于纠正类。总的来说，这种模式表明个人和机构措施在尽量减少灾害损失方面的目标和作用不同。
The present study focuses on the characteristics of human adjustment strategies to cope with river bank erosion hazard among inhabitants of the Jamuna floodplain of Bangladesh. Based on a sample survey of 547 randomly selected households, the study found that the strategies taken at the community level fall in the preventive category while at the individual level adjustment measures were more of the corrective type. Overall, such patterns are indicative of a divergent goal and role of individual and institutional measures to minimize hazard loss.
