      abstract = {Widespread poverty is the most serious threat and social  problem that Bangladesh faces. Regional vulnerability to  climate change threatens to escalate the magnitude of this  poverty. It is essential that projections of poverty be  made while bearing in mind the effects of climate change.  The current study uses analysis of variance, cluster  analysis, and log-normal distribution to estimate the  parameters of income variability that ascertain  vulnerability levels and help us understand the poverty  levels that climate change could potentially incur. The  analytical results show that variances of rice income  contribute to the agricultural income differences. Constant  reduction of rice yield due to climate change in Bangladesh  is not so severe problems for farmers. However, poverty  rates in Mymensingh, Rajshahi, and Rangpur region would be  affected by unexpected yield loss due to climate change.  Therefore, research and development of adaptation measures  to climate change for regions where farmers are largely  dependent on agricultural income is important.},
