  • Rainfall Triggered Flow-Like Landslides: Understanding from Southern Hills of Kathmandu, Nepal and Northern Shikoku, Japan
    IAEG2006 Paper number 819 Rainfall triggered flow-like landslides: Understanding from southern hills of Kathmandu, Nepal and Northern Shikoku, Japan RANJAN KUMAR DAHAL1, SHUICHI HASEGAWA2, MINORU YAMANAKA3 & KATSUHIRO NISHINO4 1 Dept. of Safety System Construction Engineering, Kagawa University. (e-mail: [email protected]) (Department of Geology, Tribhuvan University, Tri-Chandra Campus, Kathmandu, Nepal) 2 Dept. of Safety System Construction Engineering, Kagawa University. (e-mail: [email protected]) 3 Dept. of Safety System Construction Engineering, Kagawa University. (e-mail: [email protected]) 4 Graduate School of Engineering, Kagawa University. (e-mail: [email protected]) Abstract: Flow-like landslides triggered by rainfall are very prominent in Nepal and Shikoku, Japan. In July 2002, many landslides occurred in the southern hills of the Nepalese capital, Kathmandu, because of torrential rainfall. A single flow-like landslide occurred at Matatirtha, a small village situated at the south marginal hill of Kathmandu, killing 18 people who lived at the foot of the hill. Much damage was caused to roads and houses because of landslides and debris flows in small streams. Similarly, in August, September and October 2004, strong typhoon hit the area of northern Sikoku, Japan and extensive damage occurred on hill slopes and some human casualties were also reported. Field observation showed that in northern Sikoku, many flow-like landslides occur in the thin weathering profile of igneous and sedimentary rocks, as well as in old debris materials. However, in the southern hills of Kathmandu, flow-like landslides occurred in weathered debris. During the investigation, the geotechnical properties of landslide materials were determined in the laboratory.

  • Water Security in Peri-Urban South Asia Adapting to Climate Change and Urbanization
    WATER SECURITY IN PERI-URBAN SOUTH ASIA ADAPTING TO CLIMATE CHANGE AND URBANIZATION Scoping Study Report: Nepal Prof. Ashutosh Shukla Mr. Mohan Bikram Prajapati Mr. Rajesh Sada Mrs. Anushiya Shrestha Working primarily on water security issues in Peri-Urban South Asia, across India, Bangladesh and Nepal, the project's main concerns are the rapidly changing peri-urban landscapes due to urbanisation and implications for water security in specific locations in the larger context of climate change. As an action research project, working across four locations in South Asia, it will serve as a basis for capacity-building at the grass roots level to address concerns of the poor, marginalised and other vulnerable communities to water security and seek to understand the dynamics of adaptation in the specific locations, for action and policy agenda at the regional level. It will build their capacities to cope with climate change induced water in-security. The project is being coordinated by SaciWATERs, Hyderabad, India and executed in association with Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology (BUET), Dhaka in Bangladesh and Nepal Engineering College (nec), Kathmandu in Nepal. This project is supported by Canada's International Development Research Centre (IDRC). A scoping study was carried out for a period of six months from August 2010 – January 2011. It was an exploratory phase that investigated the key peri-urban and climate-change related issues in the research sites. The process of changing peri-urban landscape and its impact on water security and vulnerability was probed by literature review, field visits, discussions with various stakeholders, and use of other qualitative techniques.
