  • A Study Report of Narayani River Course, Central Nepal, 2007
    CHAPTER - I A STUDY REPORT OF NARAYANI RIVER COURSE, CENTRAL NEPAL, 2007 1.1. Background Flood is the natural phenomena that losses more property and human life in Nepal. The precipitation is highly concentrated in the monsoon season in Nepal. About 75 percent precipitation occurs in monsoon (June-September). 1 The flood phenomenon is common in the rainy season. Due to the high concentration of monsoon, high relief, steep mountain topography and deep and narrow river valleys with frequent mass wasting phenomena renders the country more hazardous and losses more property and human life annually. Every year about Rs. 748.95 million has been lost due to water Indus disaster in Nepal.2 The overall development of the country has been severely affected by repeated flooding. In the context of recent global warming phenomena, a consequent increase in the intensity of extreme precipitation events and the dynamic of glacial lakes in high mountain areas, the probability and potentially damaging of flood is likely to increase. In the past or before eradication of malaria in Terai, Dun and low land were prone of malaria. So the people lived in the low land in winter and shifted to the high land during the summer. This seasonal migration caused the flood hazard seemed not so destructive. After the eradication of malaria people, started to live in the Terai permanently. So the infrastructure in the recent past has increased the exposure of these areas to flood hazards. This happened after 1956. After the malaria eradication the investment to infrastructure development from the government side has been tremendously increased.

The study area consists of alluvial deposits of the Narayani and the Rapti River of Pleistocene to Recent age. Aquifers in the study area are unconfined and semi confined to confined types. Based on the static water level, Jagatpur, Sukranagar and Gunjanagar are deep tube well zone and Shivanagar, Parbatipur, Patihani, Gitanagar are shallow tube well zone. The western half area discharges groundwater to the Narayani River and southern half discharges to the Rapti River rather than getting recharged throughout the year. Average water level fluctuation is 2.34 m with high fluctuation of 4.88 m at Sukranagar and low 0.49 m at Dibyanagar VDC. This fluctuation is directly related to rainfall. Keywords: Hydrogeology, groundwater, flow pattern, Water level fluctuation, Chitwan, Paper Received: 20 April 2015 Paper Accepted: 06 November 2015 INTRODUCTION The hydrogeological study of the western parts of the Chitwan valley was carried out to study the groundwater flow pattern and water level fluctuation of the study area. The Chitwan valley lies approximately 146 km southwest from the Kathmandu, the capital city of the country.

  • SITE MANAGEMENT PLAN Beeshazar and Associated Lakes (Ramsar Site)
    SITE MANAGEMENT PLAN Beeshazar and Associated Lakes (Ramsar Site) Government of Nepal Ministry of Forests and Soil Conservation Department of National Parks and Wildlife Conservation Chitwan National Park, Chitwan, Nepal March, 2014 i Executive Summary A. Background Wetland being the interface between terrestrial and aquatic communities is the most productive ecosystem on the earth. The term “wetland” is composed of two typical words; wet and land, and have contrast meanings. The word wet means something moist, referring the quality of being, or containing water or liquid. The word land means a solid or specific part of the Earth surface, not covered by water. Wetlands occur only where the water table is at or near the surface of the land or where the land is covered by shallow water. Wetlands often have unique soils that differ from adjacent lands, and support vegetation adapted to the wet conditions (hydrophytes) and conversely it is characterized by an absence of flood- intolerant vegetation. B. Ramsar Convention and Ramsar Site Wetlands are multifunctional resources generating considerable social welfare. They provide many important services to human society, but are at the same time ecologically sensitive and adaptive systems. Wetlands are highly productive ecosystems supporting rich biological communities of high economic value and generating a wide range of ecological goods and services as well as income-generating opportunities to the wetland dependent populace. The Convention on Wetlands, signed in Ramsar, Iran, on 2 Feb 1971, is an intergovernmental treaty which provides the framework for national action and international cooperation for the conservation and wise use of wetlands and their resources.
