Quaternary Stratigraphy of Panchkhal Valley, Central Nepal
Bulletin of the Department of Geology C Bulletin of the Department of Geology, Tribhuvan University, Kathmandu, Nepal, Vol. 10, 2007, pp. 1–8 e y n g t o ra l l eo De G partment of Kirtipur Quaternary stratigraphy of Panchkhal valley, Central Nepal *Yadu Nath Timsina and Prakash Chandra Adhikary Central Department of Geology, Tribhuvan University, Kathmandu, Nepal ABSTRACT The Panchkhal Valley is one of intermontane basins in the Central Nepal east of Kathmandu with two sets of neo-tectonic lineaments sited from satellite imagery and aerial photographs. One extending NNW–SSE east of the valley results the old Panchkhal Valley uplifting along south during Plio-Pleistocene age and second one NE–SW has ultimately uplifted the old valley. The Panchkhal Clay, Ratopairo Formation, Rampur Formation and Tamaghat Formation are four depositional lithostratigraphical units. Similarly, Tamaghat, Rampur, Thumka, and Chisapani surfaces are depositional and Basukidada, Sano-Tinghare, Sumara-Thulo Tinghare, Dhulikhel, Koiralathumka and Bhamarkot surfaces are erosional morphostratigraphic geomorphic surfaces. Geomorphic terrace cutting level is around 1400–1440 m and all surfaces and deposits above and below are relatively young. INTRODUCTION Thrust (MT). Abrupt change in terrace elevation The Panchkhal Valley, intermontane basin associated with observed lineaments at Khok Village developed in the southeast of the Kathmandu Valley and at Okhare Village signifies that they are is located within the eastern flank of a synclinorium neotectonic in origin. in Kavre District (Stocklin 1980).

Policy, agency and scale in local adaptation to socio-environmental change in the Panchkhal Valley, Nepal. Uppsatser Kulturgeografiska institutionen, Uppsala Univer- sity. Masters Thesis in Geography, 30hp, Fall Semester 2015. This case study explores climate change coping and adaptation strategies in an agriculture- dependent community in the Panchkhal Valley in Nepal that suffered from five years of drought between 2004 and 2009. Based on fieldwork and interviews in Panchkhal 2011–2012, it explores how drought, combined with an ongoing process of agricultural commercialization and intensification, lead to a situation of ‘double exposure’ for Panchkhal farmers. As a con- sequence, current development policies based on the intensification and commercialization of agriculture may both support and undermine climate change adaptation in important ways. For instance, access to markets and a monetary income facilitated coping and adaptation, while dependence on agrochemicals led to increased vulnerability and environmental deterio- ration at the local level. Furthermore, none of the reported coping and adaptation strategies were able to provide the agricultural system in Panchkhal with sufficient amounts of water during the drought. While community organizations and NGOs were reported to play im- portant roles in facilitating adaptation and mediating support at the time of the drought, gov- ernment support was regarded to be insufficient. Coping and adaptation projects were often launched by local level actors, but these projects were dependent on resources from other ad- ministrative scales for their realization. -
