  • Introduction
    CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background The phenomenon of climate change is generally understood as a long term significant change in the average weather patterns of the region or the earth as a whole. It mainly involves changes in the variability or average state of the temperature, precipitation and wind patterns over durations ranging from decades to millions of years. UNFCCC defines it as 'a change of climate which is attributed directly or indirectly to human activity that alters the composition of the global atmosphere'. Today the world is experiencing climate change and there is the scientific consensus that the increase in the Green House Gas concentrations in the atmosphere has caused to global climate change. Nepal's average temperature is rising at the - C per annum between 1977 and 1994 with a higher rate in mountain century. In addition to increase in extreme temperature, weather has been observed changing in recent years. Because of the extreme temperature, there has been change in weather conditions. Number of monsoon days has been shortening, with early onset and late withdrawal, and the intensity of monsoon rain has shown increasing trend (Gurung and Bhandari 2009). Livelihood of third world's people has been changing and threatening from climate change. The term climate change is often used interchangeably with the term global warming but according to the National Academy of Sciences the phrase 'climate change' is growing in preferred use to 'global warming' because it helps to convey meaning of other terms related to climate change in addition to rising temperatures. Climate change refers to any significant change in measures of climate (such as temperature, precipitation or wind) lasting for an extended period, decade or longer.

  • Stream Water Survey Along the Annapurna Circuit, Nepal
    Himalayan Journal of Development and Democracy, Vol. 6, No. 1, 2011 Stream water survey along the Annapurna Circuit, Nepal Rhona Scott Ryerson University Abstract This paper focuses on stream water testing that took place on the Marshyangdi River, Jharsang Khola and the Kali Gandaki River that are located along the Annapurna Circuit Trek within the Annapurna Conservation Area. Sampling was undertaken from May 16, 2011 to May 28, 2011. A total of 7 samples were taken from the Marshyangdi River, 1 sample from a branch of the Marshyangdi River ( Jharsang Khola), and 5 from the Kali Gandaki River at various accessible points along the trek. An effort was made to sample both upstream and downstream of a village to assess any difference between the two results. Analysis was conducted 3+ - for Aluminum (Al ), free Chlorine (Cl), Iron (Fe), Nitrite (NO 2 ), and - + Nitrate (NO 3 ), Ammonia (NH 3/NH 4 ), General Hardness (Ca and Mg) and the presence of Coliform and E. coli. The results for the concentrations of aluminum, chlorine, and iron are all higher at sites upstream from Tal and Manang relative to downstream concentrations. This indicates that the variations are not likely related to inputs from villages but most likely the result of local geology or upstream agricultural activity. Nitrite was detected in higher concentrations at sites downstream of both Tal and Manang relative to upstream concentrations. This could indicate an anthropogenic influence from villages. The results for hardness (Ca and Mg) do not have higher concentrations at downstream sites and overall concentrations are high. The variations here are most likely the result of differences in local geology from the calcareous formations associated with the Central Himalayan Thrust.
