    March 13th -14th, 2021 About SONSIK Since 1990 Nepalese students had started studying in South Korea. However, after 2000 only the students flow at South Korea was increased rapidly. Even after rapid increase of students flow at South Korea there did very few students know each other and less opportunity to share knowledge/ experience gained after coming in Korea. On 2004 group of intellectuals from different university gathered at Sun Moon University, Cheonan Korea, after deep thought and discussion Society of Nepalese Students in Korea (SONSIK) was established and had its first official meeting at Sun Moon University. Initially the goal of SONSIK was to have frequent meeting with different Nepalese scholars in Korea with the changing time the mission which began 17 years ago is still the goal today to share/strengthen the bond and knowledge between more than 5000 fellow members of Korean Universities. Furthermore, the goal is set a step ahead to make SONSIK the only intellectual organization where the policy maker can look up to. Over the past years we have grown beyond Korean peninsula and our effort have not gone unnoticed. For the proper functioning of the organization SONSIK has an annual basis formal structural executive body to manage indented plans. Please click http://sonsik.org.np/ for detail about our organization. SONSIK 8th Educational Seminar 2021 1 Virtual Conference About Educational Seminar The Society of Nepalese Students in Korea (SONSIK), being the sole community of the Nepalese students and academicians in Korea, is working continuously for the promotion of Nepalese students studying in South Korea with different academic, leadership development, social networking, educational seminars, and refreshment programs.

  • Technological Characterisation of Roofing Slate from Nepal
    Journal of Nepal Geological Society, 2016, Vol. 50, pp. 19-23 Technological characterisation of roofing slate from Nepal Technological characterisation of roofing slate from Nepal *Victor Cardenes1, Naba Raj Neupane², Lalu P. Paudel³, Veerle Cnudde1, Jean Pierre Cnudde1 1UGCT/PproGress, Department of Geology and Soil Science, Ghent University, Krijgslaan 281/S8, 9000 Ghent, Belgium ²Department of Environmental Science, Amrit Campus, Tribhuvan University, Kathmandu, Nepal ³Central Department of Geology, Tribhuvan University, Kathmandu, Nepal (Email: [email protected]) ABSTRACT Roofing slate is a group of natural stones which can be split into thin, large and regular tiles. The world’s slate market is the third in importance for natural stone, just after granite and marble. Most of the world’s production of roofing slate is concentrated in Spain. There are new emerging countries (Brazil, China, India and Nepal) with huge resources of roofing slate. However, many of these resources are not yet well studied. Nepalese slate industry is still incipient, although most of the houses have been constructed using roofing slate since historic time. The representative three samples were taken for quality assessment from Tanahun and Baglung districts. From a geological point of view, the productive formations are the Benighat Slates and Nourpul Formation, but other formations are likely to be potential slate sources. Previous studies have shown an important reserve of slate which needs detailed investigation. Petrography and mineralogy of representative Nepalese slates are similar to the rest of the world’s roofing slate. The test results showed values within the acceptance thresholds for roofing slates. This paper also compares the Nepalese slates with other varieties of roofing slates from Spain.

  • Wavelet and Cross Correlation Analysis on Some Climatology Parameters of Nepal Babu Ram Tiwari1*, Jiyao Xu1, Binod Adhikari2, Narayan P
    BIBECHANA 18 (2) (2021)105-116 Wavelet and cross correlation analysis on some climatology parameters of Nepal Babu Ram Tiwari1*, Jiyao Xu1, Binod Adhikari2, Narayan P. Chapagain3 1State Key Laboratory of Space Weather, National Space Science Center, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, China- 100190 2Department of Physics, St. Xavier’s College, Maitighar , Kathmandu, Nepal 3Department of Physics, Amrit Campus, Tribhuvan University, Kathmandu, Nepal Email: [email protected] Article Information: ABSTRACT Received:December 27, 2020 This study has been performed to understand the relationship between sunspot Accepted: May 28, 2021 numbers (SSN) with climatology related parameters like temperature and rainfall from 1901 to 2016. The spectral characteristics of sunspot numbers, temperature Keywords: and rainfall have been observed using continuous wavelet transform. Cross- Climate variability correlation analyses were also performed to find any relation among temperature, Wavelet transform rainfall, and sunspot numbers. The 9–11 year periodicity of sunspot numbers Cross-correlation analysis confirmed by wavelet transform in annual scale. The periodicity of high- frequency signals is identified between 4 to 11 years whereas the low frequencies signal is found throughout the periods of observation for temperature. Similarly, it is clear that there is more concentration of power between 8–16 years for rainfall. Cross-correlation analysis shows that the sunspot numbers is highly correlated with rainfall and temperature (correlation coefficient ~ 0.8054). The time lag relationship resulted in the almost simultaneous linear relationship between the temperature, rainfall, and the SSN tendency. Development of convective motions over the subtropics might be affected by the time rate of change of SSN combined with the surface temperature changes of diverse time scales.
