Abstract
Morphological and stratigraphical observational facts in the Sundarban delta provide data for a novel sea level reconstruction of the area. This sea level documentation lacks traces of a global sea level rise. This implies totally new perspectives for the future of Bangladesh. No longer are there any reasons to fear an extensive sea level inundation in the near future. Sea level estimates based on linear trend analyses of tide gauge data should be avoided and seem often to be directly misleading, as was the case with previous, divergent, claims of a strong global sea level rise component.
