  1. this river delta in Bengal can flood every year, some years worse than others. The area is flooded because of tropical cyclones, the monsoons and snow melt from the Himalayan mountains. The worst in 1970 killed 500,000 people with another 100,000 missing. In 1991, 138,000 people were killed and in 1998 1000 were killed and 30 million were homeless. As the area lies in a tropical wet climate, it can receive up to 120 inched of rain a year
