Large boulders pose a direct threat to life and key infrastructure, amplifying landslide 5 and flood hazards, as they move from the slopes to the river network. Despite the hazard they pose, 6 boulders have not been directly targeted as a mean to detect landslide movement or used in dedicated 7 early warning systems. We use an innovative monitoring system to observe boulder movement 8 occurring in different geomorphological settings, before reaching the river system. Our study focuses 9 on an area in the upper Bhote Koshi catchment northeast of Kathmandu, where the Araniko highway 10 is subjected to periodic landsliding and floods during the monsoons and was heavily affected by 11 coseismic landslides during the 2015 Gorkha earthquake. In the area, damage by boulders to 12 properties, roads and other key infrastructure, such as hydropower plants, is observed every year.

  • Life in the Shadow of Embankments – Turning Lost Lands Into Assets in the Koshi Basin of Bihar, India Executive Summary
    Life in the Shadow of Embankments – Turning Lost Lands into Assets in the Koshi Basin of Bihar, India Executive summary The central objective of the research project ‘Documenting and Assessing Adaptation Strategies to Too Much, Too Little Water’ is to document adaptation strategies at local or community level to constraints and hazards related to water and induced by climate change in the Himalayan region, including how people are affected by water stress and hazards, their local short and long-term responses, and the extent to which these strategies reduce vulnerability to water stress and hazards. Five case studies were carried out in four countries. The results of each have been summarised in separate documents on a CD-ROM to accompany a single synthesis document. The India case study presented here, documents and assesses how people in the Koshi basin, Bihar, India, respond to water stress and hazards in the context of climate variability and change. The Koshi is known for its frequently shifting courses and the devastation that it has caused in the past. Conventional flood-control measures have not only altered the agroecology of the Koshi basin, they have also increased the frequency and intensity of water-related stress and hazards throughout its basin. Flood-prone and waterlogged areas have increased, and erosion and sand casting have temporarily or permanently rendered vast areas of land uncultivable, leading to an increase in landlessness and distress among the local community. Five villages were selected on the basis of their location in the Koshi basin in order to have a representative sample of sites.
