This study attempts to study the morphometric characteristics of the Ghatganga basin by using Geographical information system (GIS). This analysis has shown that the relation of stream order (U) and stream number (Nu) which gives a negative linear pattern that order increases with a decreasing number of stream segment of a particular order. Different morphometric parameters such as stream length (Lu), bifurcation ratio (Rb), drainage density (D), stream frequency (Fs), texture ratio (T), elongation ratio (Re), circularity ratio (Rc), form factor ratio (Rf), relief ratio (Rh) and river profile have revealed the basin has a dendritic pattern of drainage, indicating high relief and steep ground slope with less elongated young and mature landforms in which geological structures don’t have a dominant influence on the basin.
本研究尝试利用地理信息系统(GIS)研究加甘河流域的地貌特征。分析表明,流序(U)与流数(Nu)之间呈负线性关系,流序随某一阶流段数量的减少而增加。河流长度(Lu)、分叉比(Rb)、排水密度(D)、水流频次(Fs)、质地比(T)、延伸比(Re)、圆度比(Rc)、形状因子比(Rf)、起伏比(Rh)和河流剖面等不同形态测量参数显示,盆地呈树枝状分布,地形起伏大,地表坡度陡,年轻地貌和成熟地貌拉长较少,地质构造对盆地影响不大。

A disaster is a natural or manmade hazard resulting in an event of substantial extent causing significant physical damage or destruction, loss of life or drastic change to the environment. Due to diverse geographical coverage, Nepal is prone to various geological and hydro-meteorological hazards. This paper tries to show the types of disaster, losses and damages induced by disaster and analyze the trend and geographical distribution of disaster in Nepal. This study is based on the secondary data sources. Disaste r events data were collected from NSET and other government research papers, library etc. 26,665 events were reported during a 45 year and 43,868 people were died, 2,828 people were missing by disaster. Fire, flood landslide, accident and thunderstorms are major disasters in terms of occurrences and Earthquake, flood, and landslide are the major disasters in terms of damages and losses. The trend of disaster events is gradually increasing from the 1971 to 2000 but after 2000 the trend of disaster is drastically increasing to 2016. Annually 593 disaster events have occurred in Nepal. The data of impacts caused by the disasters also reveal that the estimated annual economic loss is increasing with the increasing frequency of disasters. The number of natural disasters as well as the number of corresponding casualties, injured and affected people, and economic loss is steadily on the rise. Tarai and Hilly districts are highly vulnerable than Mountain districts and Hill and Tarai region are most affected than Mountain region due different disaster in Nepal. The Tarai and some central hill districts are most vulnerable in terms of disasters occurrences. Among the seven provinces, province no 3 recorded the highest number of human deaths and disasters occurrences.
灾难是一种自然或人为的危险,其结果是在很大程度上造成重大的物理损害或破坏、生命损失或环境的急剧变化。由于地理覆盖的多样性,尼泊尔容易发生各种地质和水文气象灾害。本文试图展示灾害的类型、灾害造成的损失和损害,并分析尼泊尔灾害的趋势和地理分布。本研究基于二手数据来源。灾害事件数据收集自NSET和其他政府研究论文、图书馆等,45年间共报告26,665起灾害事件,43,868人死亡,2,828人失踪。火灾、洪水、滑坡、事故和雷暴是发生的主要灾害,地震、洪水和滑坡是造成破坏和损失的主要灾害。从1971年到2000年,灾害事件呈逐渐增加的趋势,但2000年以后到2016年,灾害事件呈急剧增加的趋势。尼泊尔每年发生593起灾难事件。灾害造成的影响数据也显示,随着灾害发生频率的增加,估计的年经济损失也在增加。自然灾害的数量以及相应的人员伤亡和受灾人数以及经济损失正在稳步上升。由于尼泊尔不同的灾害,塔莱和丘陵地区比山区更脆弱,而丘陵和塔莱地区比山区受影响最大。就灾害发生而言,塔拉伊和一些中央山区是最脆弱的。在7个省中,第3省的死亡人数和灾害发生人数最多。

Vedas are earliest collection of Hindu scripture. The word Veda was originated from Sanskrit verb ‘Vida’ inane meaning to “to know”. Vedas are collection of knowledge. Literatures, written on the basis of Vedas are called Vedic literature. Itihansas and puranas are also known as Vedic literature. Each and every dimension of geography is expressed in Vedic Literature very strongly. This paper simply tries to present the geographical issue expressed in different Vedic literature. Different research papers written about Vedic geography, books of Vedas and puranas are used as materials for the formation of this paper. Topographic explanation and their classification for regionalization is carefully presented in vedic literature such as Dwipas, Khandas and Barshas. River is praised as mother in Vedas and nature and behavior of river was known by Vedic people. Ricveda is full of praising river. Seasonality month and different weather is explained in different Vedas and vedic literatures. Six seasons and twelve months are explained in vedic literature. Fire, wind, water, earth are taken as different forms of god and praised as human environment interaction. People are discouraged for deforestation means not to destroy home of god. Quantitative and mathematical geography is another great feature of vedic literature. Measurement unit techniques of time and distance are very strong geographical representation of vedic literature. The measurement of time starts from ‘pramanu’ to ‘mahayuga’ and distance starts from ‘pramanu’ to ‘krosha’.
《吠陀经》是最早的印度经文集。吠陀这个词起源于梵语动词“Vida”,意思是“知道”。吠陀是知识的集合。以《吠陀经》为基础写成的文学被称为吠陀文学。《Itihansas》和《puranas》也被称为吠陀文学。在吠陀文献中,地理的每一个维度都表达得非常强烈。本文只是试图呈现不同吠陀文献中所表达的地理问题。不同的关于吠陀地理的研究论文,吠陀书和古书被用作形成本文的材料。地形解释及其分区分类在吠陀文献(如Dwipas, Khandas和Barshas)中有详细介绍。在《吠陀经》中,河流被誉为母亲,吠陀人了解河流的性质和行为。里韦达充满了对河流的赞美。不同的吠陀和吠陀文献解释了季节、月份和不同的天气。吠陀文献中解释了六个季节和十二个月。火、风、水、土被视为不同形式的神,被誉为人与环境的互动。人们不鼓励砍伐森林意味着不破坏上帝的家园。数量和数学地理学是吠陀文学的另一大特色。时间和距离的测量单位技术是吠陀文献中非常强烈的地理表征。时间的测量从“pramanu”开始到“mahayuga”,距离的测量从“pramanu”开始到“krosha”。

Abundance of female workers in tea estate is common phenomena in the context of Nepalese tea industry. Women are main work force especially for leaf picking in any tea industry. So, the role of women participation is notable in this sector. This study focusses on socioeconomic background of women workers in Guranse Tea Estate, Dhankuta. Both qualitative and quantitative methods have been used to collect data and information through questionnaire, interview, focused group discussion, key informant interview and observation. Various types and nature of tea workers are found in the tea industry. Different types of socio-economic background such as caste/ethnicity, age group, educational status, land ownership, income level etc. have been found in this tea estate. Most of the workers are represented from indigenous and ethnic group with 20-40 age group. Similarly, a large number of tea workers are illiterate and landless as well as having low level of income.
在尼泊尔茶业的背景下,茶园女工人数众多是一个普遍现象。在任何茶叶行业,妇女都是主要的劳动力,特别是采摘茶叶。因此,妇女参与在这一领域的作用是显著的。本研究聚焦于丹库塔古兰斯茶园女工的社会经济背景。采用了定性和定量相结合的方法,通过问卷调查、访谈、焦点小组讨论、关键线人访谈和观察等方式收集数据和信息。茶工的种类和性质各不相同。不同类型的社会经济背景,如种姓/种族,年龄组,教育状况,土地所有权,收入水平等,在这个茶园被发现。大多数工人来自20-40岁的土著和少数民族群体。同样,大量的茶工是文盲,没有土地,收入水平低。

Climate change (CC) has become one of the intervening issues in the last few decades. Climate change can severely affect the way community is living, prominently the developing countries. Climate change brings out wide ranging effects on water resources, agriculture, human health and biodiversity. The study was conducted in ward number 3, 7, 8, 9, 10 and 13 of Kamalamai municipality Sindhuli, Nepal. The methods adopted for the data were key informant interviews, group discussions and observations. In order to support the primary data and secondary data were also used. The secondary sources of Data were obtained from the public documents of the different ministries, departments, Central Bureau of Statistics and journal articles. Group discussions, Key informant interviews and observation were carried out to identify the impact of climate change on vegetation and agriculture. The findings of the study show that majority of the household perceived the impact of climate change on vegetation and agriculture while very few people were unknown about the impact. Climate change expected to cause many other climatic hazards, which directly affect the economy and livelihoods of the people.

A Review of Studies on Climate Change in Nepal 尼泊尔气候变化研究综述
Pub Date : 2019-10-27 DOI: 10.3126/tgb.v6i0.26163
P. Ghimire
Climate change is now a global issue and its impact on different sectors like water sources, biodiversity, health, livestock, and livelihood are already seen. Climate change is accelerating due to the emission of greenhouse gases produced by anthropogenic activities. Though Nepal’s contribution to greenhouse gases is negligible compared to developed countries, its risk to climate change is very high. Thus, it extremely important to understand the current scenario of climate change of Nepal. Hence, this article reviews and compares the published articles which studies the pattern and trend of climate change of the time period of at least 30 years. Most of the article shows increasing trend of temperature. According to the recent study, maximum temperature was found to be increasing by 0.05°C/year and minimum temperature was found to increase by 0.03°C/year. Though, the trend of precipitation in Nepal is not clear like temperature most of the studies have concluded increasing in monsoon precipitation in coming years.
气候变化现在是一个全球性问题,它对水资源、生物多样性、卫生、牲畜和生计等不同部门的影响已经显现。由于人类活动产生的温室气体的排放,气候变化正在加速。尽管与发达国家相比,尼泊尔对温室气体的贡献微不足道,但其对气候变化的风险非常高。因此,了解尼泊尔目前的气候变化情况非常重要。因此,本文对已发表的研究至少30年时间内气候变化格局和趋势的文章进行了回顾和比较。文章的大部分内容都显示了温度的上升趋势。根据最近的研究,最高气温每年升高0.05℃,最低气温每年升高0.03℃。尽管尼泊尔降水的趋势并不像气温那样明确,但大多数研究都得出结论,未来几年季风降水将增加。

Different types of pesticides and chemical fertilizers are in use in Nepal which is harmful for human health. These chemical fertilizers and pesticides are beyond the limitation and restriction. However, scientific study is very limited in Nepal. So, this study aims to assess the situation of use and protection system of pesticides users. This study is based on field level data of Godawari area of Lalitpur district. In Godawari area, Urea and DAP are mostly used for cereal crops and potash is mostly for vegetables. Pesticides and fertilizers are mostly used in vegetable farming but protection system during the use of pesticides and fertilizer is not satisfactory. So, these chemicals have been negatively affecting on the health of the local farmers.
尼泊尔使用的各种农药和化肥对人体健康有害。这些化学肥料和农药超出了限制和限制。然而,尼泊尔的科学研究非常有限。因此,本研究旨在评估农药使用者的使用情况和防护体系。本研究基于拉利特普尔县戈达瓦里地区的野外水平数据。在Godawari地区,尿素和DAP主要用于谷类作物,钾肥主要用于蔬菜。农药和化肥在蔬菜种植中使用较多,但农药和化肥使用过程中的防护系统不完善。因此,这些化学物质对当地农民的健康产生了负面影响。
