Abstract:
The adverse change in weather increases landslide risk every year due to climate change. Consequently, developmental activities were hampered due to the landslide. This study aimed at developing past landslides (1997, 2007, 2017) using national rainfall data and projected landslides for the years 2027, 2037, 2050 and 2100 using the projected rainfall data in three districts of Bhutan namely Zhemgang, Mongar and Bumthang. The study uses elevation, aspect, slope, curvature, TWI, SPI, NDVI, distance from the river, distance from road, lithology and flow accumulation as influencing factors apart from different year rainfall data. The frequency ratio was employed for data analysis. Kappa index and accuracy were used to validate the landslide map for the year 2017. The landslide risk zones are classified into very low, low, moderate, high and very high. It is observed that the total area of the very low zone decreased from 1997 to 2100 while the area of the very high-risk zone increases from 1997 to 2100. Among the districts, the Zhemgang dzongkhag was highly susceptible to landslides. On the other hand, Bumthang district is least impacted by the landslides.

Abstract:
Potato (Solanum tuberosum) is an indispensable commodity, mainly cultivated by high-altitude mountain households, that sustains and supports the livelihood of an overwhelming 51% of the Bhutanese population. The popularity of potato cultivation among Bhutanese farmers can be attributed to the crop’s adaptability to a wide range of agroclimatic conditions such as a rainfed crop, high productivity, an assured market, and a reliable source of income for the farming families. We hypothesize that the changing climate would make the livelihood associated with potato cultivation in Bhutan more vulnerable. We tested this hypothesis to identify the sources of vulnerability of smallholder farming households using the Livelihood Vulnerability Index (LVI) and LVI-IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) approaches in six potato growing districts of Bhutan: Bumthang, Chukha, Gasa, Mongar, Tashigang, and Wangdue. Primary data were generated through a semi structured sample survey of 240 households on the seven major livelihood components of sociodemographic profiles, livelihood strategies, social networks, health, food, water, natural disasters, and climate variability. The results showed that the LVI (range 0.302 to 0.375) and LVI-IPCC (range −0.005 to 0.030) differed significantly (p < 0.001) across the districts. The districts of Tashigang and Mongar were less vulnerable than the other four districts by the LVI approach, whereas Bumthang was also revealed to be less vulnerable using the LVI-IPCC approach. The degree of vulnerability in a district differed according to their level of exposure and adaptive capacity to the climate change impacts of the potato farming household. The results are expected to serve as empirical evidence for designing a future course of actions to mitigate the negative impacts.

Abstract:
Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) is one of the widely cultivated horticultural commodities in Bhutan. Over the years yields of potato at national level have stagnated due to degeneration of seeds and lack of appropriate varieties in the country. To address the yield stagnation issue, two potato varieties (Yusi Maap and Nasphel Kewa Kaap (NKK)) were introduced in recent years. To understand crop productivity and farmer’s preferences of the new varieties this study was conducted in Bumthang, Chukha, Gasa, Haa, and Wangduephodrang districts from 2017 to 2018 using the field demonstration trials and participatory varietal selection method. Desiree, the popular variety was used as a control. On an average across years and dzongkhags, mean yields of the NKK and Yusi Maap were 10.4 and 10.5 tons/acre, respectively. Hence, yields of Yusi Maap and NKK were approximately 30% higher in comparison to Desire, which was 7.30 tons/acre on an average across the years and dzongkhags. Being one of the oldest varieties, Desiree consistently showed lower productivity compared to other two varieties due to seed degeneration and quality deterioration. Although the productivity difference between NKK and Yusi Maap is minimal (0.10 tons/acre) the preference votes of Yusi Maap was 1.3 times that of NKK indicating the higher level of preferences for Yusi Maap. There was positive significant relationship (P=0.02) between the potato productivity and the farmer’s preference suggesting that higher productivity attracted more votes and lower productivity attracted lesser votes. Further higher productivity is also seen as a means to earn cash income for the household to achieve food security in terms of household’s consumptions through the sale of potatoes. The findings provide a sound scientific basis to guide program implementers and policy-makers in terms of potato research and development at the national level.

Abstract:
Climate change carries immense threat to the livelihood and food security of smallholder farmers in Bhutan and it is therefore crucial to enhance their adaptive capacity. However, building resiliency to climate impact require information on vulnerability of the system of interest. Therefore, this study assessed smallholder farmers’ vulnerability to impacts of climate change and variability in central regions (Bumthang and Trongsa) of Bhutan. Data was collected from 247 randomly selected households by administering a pre-tested survey questionnaire. Data was analyzed using composite index approach (LVI) and IPCC framework approach (LVI-IPCC). The LVI analysis revealed that Bumthang was more vulnerable in terms of Socio-demographic profile (0.55), social networks (0.45), health (0.31) and natural disasters and climate variability (0.47) compared to Trongsa. Whereas, Trongsa was more vulnerable in terms of livelihood strategies (0.31) and water (0.13). Vulnerability score on the food component was same for both the districts (0.27). Overall, Bumthang was more vulnerable compared to Trongsa on both LVI (Bumthang: 0.36, Trongsa: 0.34) and LVI-IPCC (Bumthang: 0.24, Trongsa: 0.13) analysis. The findings could be used for designing micro-level context specific interventions to enhance smallholder farmers’ adaptive capacity to impacts of climate change in central Bhutan.

Abstract:
In this thesis, I investigate the word class system in Bumthang, a Tibeto-Burman language from central Bhutan. Word classes form a fundamental part of basic linguistic analysis, as tasks like writing phrase structure rules or positing derivational affixes require assumptions about how words in a language are organised. Recent work on word classes has been typologically orientated, with discussion surrounding crosslinguistic comparison and organisation of word class systems found worldwide. As such, my thesis will give insights into the structure of word class systems in the Himalayas and how they work. Using morphosyntactic distribution, I find that there is evidence for common crosslinguistic word classes such as nouns, verbs and adjectives in Bumthang. However, while verbs are easily definable morphologically at the word level, nouns are instead defined syntactically at the phrase level. Furthermore, adjectives are clearly derived from verbs but are more nominal in their distribution. All three classes can be further divided into subclasses, which have restricted morphosyntactic distribution. The status of the three major word classes in Bumthang allows us to uncover language-internal regularities and compare cross-linguistic coding strategies.

Abstract:
This thesis investigates the synchronic and diachronic relationship of the verbal suffix -na to the copula na in Bumthang, a Tibeto-Burman language of central Bhutan. I discuss the formal and functional properties of each to demonstrate that the suffix-na originates in the structural reanalysis of the copula na. Previous research has shown how copulas in Tibeto-Burman languages may come to differentially mark personal knowledge. This differential pattern has been termed ‘personal versus impersonal,’ ‘conjunct versus disjunct,’ and ‘egophoric versus non-egophoric,’ among other labels. In the case of Bumthang I show that as -na has been drawn into the verbal paradigm, it has brought with it the dimension of differential personal versus impersonal marking to a system that did not previously make that distinction. This has led to significant changes in the structure of the verbal paradigm. It is hoped that this thesis will contribute to an understanding of how personal versus impersonal splits may develop, and be reinforced by other paradigms in the language. This thesis also aims to contribute to the documentation of Bumthang.

Abstract:
Abstract Internal clashes were far fewer than external armed conflicts. The earliest battle in recorded history was between Sindhuraza (alias Kunjom) and Nauche which was brought to an end by Guru Rinpoche as the peace maker. The Immortal Pillar of Peace symbolizing the end of conflict stands to this day. An equally early war was waged by Morum Tsenpo (the banished prince of Emperor Trisong Detsen), known more by his pejorative name Khikha Rathoed, on Tibet. By then Tibet was ruled by his half-brother Motig Tsenpo. Yet again it was Guru who brokered peace by moving King Kikha from Khenpalung located close to Lho-brag border to Bumthang valley. In the Zhabdrung era, using muskets, jingals, matchlocks, chainmail, shields, barbed arrows, swords, helmets, small cannons, catapults, trebuchets, and pelting stones, Bhutanese militias repulsed first Tsang Depa’s armies and later Tibetan Gelugpa-Mongol forces. With the same primitive arms, the Bhutanese faced the British onslaught, with two brigades consisting of 10,000 troops armed with howitzers and other heavy artillery, from 5 to 10 December 1864. The British troops seized all important border defences such as Dhalimkote, Dhumsong, Chamorchi, Tazagong Buxa, Bishensing, and Dewangiri. In the coordinated counter attack launched in the first week of January 1865, Tazagong Buxa and Dewangiri were recaptured. But the counter attack provoked the British who threatened to march against Punakha. Three-quarters of a century passed before the Second King could modernize Bhutanese defence forces at a time when Tibetan refugees flooded in.
