Abstract:
Urban expansion of Kathmandu Valley is taking place at the fast rate challenging urban managers and planners of the city. In-migration has resulted in the unplanned urban growth of the city with the shortage of serviced land for urban development in Kathmandu. So Land Readjustment (LR) technique has been used as urban land development tool by the government. There are twenty two LR projects completed, and some of the projects are ongoing in the valley. The overview of the Land Readjustment technique of Kathmandu Valley has been done to explore the required measures needed to reform the existing legal and Institutional Framework and procedure of LR. Among the implemented LR projects, Nayabazar Land pooling has been selected for the case study as almost all the plots have been developed. Now, it is a dense residential neighborhood. The instruments used for research are literature study, in-depth interviews with different stakeholders of LR projects and landowners. Field visit and questionnaire survey in case study area are conducted regarding the street network and open space of the area. The existing system of LR technique is studied relating it with international experience mainly the case of Germany and Japan to draw positive inferences to explore the wider scope of LR technique for the comprehensive development in urban areas.

Abstract:
This article presents the information received from documents available in the Police Head- Quarters, Operation Department, Traffic Directorate, Naxal, Kathmandu and Metropolitan Traffic Police Division, Kathmandu along with some journals and websites covering five years from 2069 to 2074. The main aim of carrying out this research was to shed light on the road traffic accidents of Kathmandu valley. The data have been presented through document analysis and analyzed here using both quantitative and qualitative techniques. The major findings include that Road Traffic Accidents are the outcomes of many factors ranging from the negligence of the driver to the weather condition and the condition of road. Despite the dense presence of government and its bodies, the study showed that maximum number of road traffic accidents occur in Kathmandu valley. Youngsters riding bikes and driving cars involved in accident are found maximum in number. Because of the immediate rescue and hospitalization, the number of deaths in Kathmandu valley was found to be decreasing in comparison to the other parts of Nepal.Journal of Health Promotion Vol.6 2008, p.37-44

Abstract:
Weed management in the crop field is one of the major challenges of agriculture. It has been reported that new weeds are encroaching crop fields due to anthropogenic activities such as the use of insecticides, pesticides and chemical fertilizer, and also due to climatic changes including warming temperatures, erratic and unseasonal precipitation, flood and landslides. The agricultural history of Kathmandu valley is quite old, which represents one of the highly productive valleys in of Nepal for agricultural crops including rice, indicating the long history of weeds in the region. There are quite a lot number of medicinally important plants found in rice field as weeds. Traditional practitioners are using these weeds in curing diseases as primary health care, and the utilization of weeds is the best method of weed management. The objective of this present study was to enumerate the weeds in and around paddy field and gather their medicinal properties of weeds among the local people of Kathmandu valley in order to assist with the weed management of paddy field. The periodic field survey was conducted in 9 selected sites, 3 from each district (Kathmandu, Lalitpur, and Bhaktapur) during summer 2012-2014 (two times: crop matured seasons and just after harvesting). We found 104 weed species belonging to 36 families in the rice field of Kathmandu valley that have medicine values.

Abstract:
This research was conducted to analyze drinking water quality of Kathmandu valley. Total 969 water samples (392 from dug wells, 287 from deep boring, 218 from treated water, 46 from tap and 26 from other water sources) received from different places of Kathmandu, Lalitpur and Bhaktapur districts during March 2012 to March 2013. These samples were analyzed for the determination of physical (pH, temperature, conductivity, turbidity), chemical (hardness, chloride, iron, arsenic, ammonia, nitrate) and microbiological (total Coliform) parameters. It was found that the temperature and nitrate were within the WHO standards while pH, conductivity, turbidity, chloride, iron, arsenic, ammonia, and Coliform bacteria exceeded the WHO standard guideline. In ground water ( well and Boring), pH, conductivity, hardness, turbidity, iron, arsenic, chloride, ammonia and total Coliform count crossed WHO standards as 5%, 2%, 0.8%, 36%, 51%, 0.1%, 2%, 11% and 86 % respectively. Hardness was within the standard in both reated and tap water samples. Compared to treated water, pH, arsenic and chloride were within the standard in tap water. The common problematic parameters of different sources of drinking were turbidity, iron, ammonia and conductivity. Coliform bacteria were found in 36% samples of treated water whereas 80% tap water samples were contaminated from Coliform bacteria.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3126/njst.v15i1.12027Nepal Journal of Science and TechnologyVol. 15, No.1 (2014) 115-120

Abstract:
Mestrado em Engenharia do Ambiente
Foi desenvolvido um modelo numérico tridimensional de fluxo subterrâneo do vale de Katmandu (capital do Nepal) para avaliar o impacto da bombagem de água subterrânea sobre o padrão do fluxo de água subterrânea. Devido à escassez e contaminação da água de superfície, as águas subterrâneas constituem na região a principal fonte de água para abastecimento doméstico, agrícola e mesmo industrial. No entanto, apesar da importância local das águas subterrâneas, a hidrogeologia do vale de Katmandu ainda não se encontra bem estudada. Sabe-se que devido à recarga limitada e à captação não regulamentada de águas subterrâneas, o nível piezométrico da região tem decaído rapidamente, para valores que revelam a não sustentabilidade da captação deste recurso de água. Dados geológicos e hidrogeológicos foram integrados para desenvolver um modelo hidrogeológico conceptual do sistema aquífero do vale de Katmandu, que foi a base para o desenvolvimento do modelo numérico. O sistema aquífero foi modelado numericamente utilizando o programa MODFLOW 4.2, em estado estacionário e definindo três camadas, duas correspondentes ao aquífero da base e ao aquífero mais superficial, e a terceira a um nível de baixa condutividade hidráulica e com um comportamento de aquitardo. Foi utilizado o programa MODPATH para simular os sentidos e direcção preferenciais de fluxo subterrâneo. A área total do modelo é de cerca de 327 km2 e foi dividida em células de aproximadamente 18,330 m2. Os limites do modelo foram delimitados com com base em mapas topográficos e o modelo digital do terreno extraído a partir de uma imagem raster. Os parâmetros hidráulicos do sistema aquífero foram atribuídos com base nos valores de estudos anteriores e foram ajustados durante a calibração do modelo. O mecanismo de recarga foi considerado como principal entrada directa de água no aquífero e dá-se por infiltração da água das chuvas. Utilizou-se o método do balanço hídrico recomendado pela FAO para determinar o valor de recarga anual de água subterrânea. O modelo foi calibrado a partir de valores de níveis água subterrânea medidos nos furos de bombagem e que são monitorizados. A modelação do fluxo subterrâneo em estado estacionário permitiu determinar gradientes hidráulicos, velocidades aparentes e padrões de fluxo no interior da área de estudo. O modelo foi utilizado para simular em regime estacionário as condições de bombagem em 2001 e 2009, pretendendo-se com este exercício demonstrar o impacto da captação de água subterrânea na região. As análises da sensibilidade permitiram determinar quais os parâmetros mais importantes para o modelo e quais aqueles que necessitam de serem melhor estudados. Este modelo de fluxo tem associadas uma série de incertezas resultantes da simplificação de dados de entrada e condições de contorno que foi preciso fazer para poder simular um caso de estudo tão complexo, da utilização de dados com pouca qualidade e da falta de caracterização detalhada das condições hidrogeológicas. É por isso importante ter em conta estas limitações a quando da interpretação e extrapolação dos resultados deste exercício de modelação.
We developed a three dimensional numerical model of groundwater flow in the valley of Kathmandu ( capital of Nepal) to assess the impact of groundwater pumping on the flow pattern of groundwater. The scarcity and contamination of surface water, groundwater in the region constitute the main source of water supply for domestic, agricultural and even industrial. However, despite the importance of local groundwater hydrogeology of the Kathmandu valley is still not well studied. It is known that due to limited recharge and unregulated abstraction of groundwater, the groundwater level in the region has declined rapidly to values that show the unsustainability of the capture of this water resource. Geologic and hydrologic data were integrated to develop a conceptual hydrogeologic model of the aquifer system of the Kathmandu valley, which was the basis for the development of the numerical model. The aquifer system was modeled numerically using the program MODFLOW 4.2, steady state and defining three layers, two corresponding to the aquifer base and the more shallow aquifer, and the third level of a low hydraulic conductivity and with an attitude of aquitard. MODPATH program was used to simulate the sense and direction of preferential groundwater flow. The total area of the model is approximately 327 km2 and is divided into cells of about 18.330 m2. The boundaries were marked with the model based on topographic maps and digital terrain model extracted from a raster image. The hydraulic parameters of the aquifer system were assigned based on values from previous studies and were adjusted during model calibration. The reloading mechanism was considered as the main direct entry of water into the aquifer and occurs by infiltration of rainwater. We used the water balance method recommended by FAO to determine the value of annual recharge of groundwater. The model was calibrated with values measured groundwater levels in boreholes and pumping stations that are monitored. The modeling of groundwater flow in steady state allowed us to determine hydraulic gradients, apparent velocities and flow patterns within the study area. The model was used to simulate steady state conditions of pumping in 2001 and 2009, intending with this exercise to demonstrate the impact of abstraction of groundwater in the region. The sensitivity analysis allowed to determine what the most important parameters for the model and which ones need to be better studied. This flow model has an associated range of uncertainties arising from the simplification of input data and boundary conditions that we had to do in order to simulate a very complex case study, using data with poor quality and lack of detailed characterization of the conditions hydrogeological. It is therefore important to consider these limitations when interpreting and extrapolating the results of this modeling exercise.

Abstract:
This study focuses on Bhaktapur Durbar Square, one of the monument zone of Kathmandu Valley World Heritage Site which lies within a Bhaktapur city, an ancient historic town. Through survey research targeting local people and key informants interviews, this study tried to investigate on the domains of major impacts from the cultural tourism in Bhaktapur Durbar Square from the perspective of local community. The study then explores the different factors serving to generate the impacts from macro and micro level of context. Macro level deals with the international and national context whereas micro level deals with local context. Using data collection methods such as interviews with organizations involved in the management of WHS, tourism, expert interviews, primary and secondary data analysis, which is to explore factors affecting the generation of tourism impacts for the community, is carried out. By combining the research conducted at the community level and the many influencing factors, the study intends to explain the socio-economic-cultural heritage impacts at the community level in light of the management or governing process of the WHS, the institutional arrangement as well as the interactions between organizations, and in the context of policy – which is reflected in the current legal framework influencing the site. This study finds that cultural tourism in Bhaktapur has contributed significantly to local government’s tax revenue particularly through tourist entry fee which in turn contributed in the conservation of the world heritage properties. However, the study also found that there have been limited positive impacts of cultural tourism for the majority of local people i.e. farmers group. Tourism has not encouraged the growth in the agriculture sector – a sector in which more than 60% of the farmers are involved. The concentrated tourism development at the core area of the city imparts the economic disparity among the people one who live in the core area and one beyond it. This study also found that tourism in Bhaktapur has limited impacts in raising the standard of living, household income, skills and training, infrastructure and public facilities. In the analysis of factors in the international context, this study argues that the nomination process, guidance from relevant international organizations and development in WHS discourse have influenced the cultural tourism development – although not directly. In terms of the national context, it finds that there is a lack of comprehensive policies and planning for conservation and tourism development which works in separate institutional framework. Analysis of factors in the local context, problems at the local area, such as decreasing agriculture land, inefficient management plan, lack of political commitment, lack of awareness and education, limited scope of work, lack of community organization, etc contribute to the perceived tourism impacts. This study finds institutional problems such as lack of planning mechanism, difficulties in coordination as well as legal framework that prevent the management system from working together to address local issues. This study recommends that a strong cooperation and coordination mechanism should be established under the framework of comprehensive community development and management plan in order to develop local economy alongside with tourism and contributing to wider benefits to the local community. A community based tourism strategy is recommended in order to reduce the disparity, directly benefiting the community and encouraging the local community to involve in decision making process. All of these efforts may help to realize at the micro level, the ideal of WHS for development that has been stated by organizations such as UNESCO in the macro level.

This dissertation describes the most comprehensive study to date of the diurnal cycle of air pollution in the Kathmandu Valley, Nepal -- a bowl-shaped mountain valley of two million people with a growing air pollution problem but little past research. Field measurements and computer simulations were used to study the interplay of emissions and ventilation. From September 2004 through June 2005, CO (carbon monoxide), ozone, PM10 (particles smaller than 10 micrometers), wind speed and direction, solar radiation, temperature, and humidity were continuously measured east of Kathmandu. Sensors towers and mountains measured the diurnal cycle of the vertical temperature structure and stability. A sodar measured the mixed layer height and upper-level winds. Bag sampling provided the diurnal cycle of CO on mountains, passes and around the valley. Winds were measured on a mountain pass and ozone on a mountaintop. Patterns of air pollution and meteorology in the valley showed remarkable day-to-day similarity, with daily twin peaks of CO and PM10, a noon ozone maximum, afternoon westerly winds, and a stagnant cold pool at night. On mountaintops at night, ozone remained high, while CO dropped to regional background levels.
(cont.) The meso-scale meteorological model MM5 was adapted to the Kathmandu Valley for days in February and May 2005. It was able to capture the essential features of the valley's meteorology and was used to address three specific questions: The break-up of the valley's temperature inversion was found to be dominated in February by up-slope winds on the valley rim, plus subsidence over the valley center; in May surface heating of the valley bottom also played a major role. The pathways of pollutant transport out of the valley were found to be up the valley rim slopes in the morning, but out the eastern and southern passes in the afternoons. At night pollutants remained within the valley except near the river outlet. They were lifted off the ground at night and re-circulated in the morning. The eulerian chemistry transport model CAMx, was used in tracer mode, with MM5 meteorology to simulate the emission, transport and removal of CO from the Kathmandu Valley. The simulations were limited by the accuracy of Kathmandu's emissions inventory, especially the spatial distribution of emissions.

The purpose of this investigation was to determine and describe the microbial drinking water quality problems in the Kathmandu Valley. Microbial testing for total coliform, E.coli, and H2S producing bacteria was performed in January 2000 on drinking water sources, treatment plants, distribution points, and consumption points. Existing studies of the water quality problems in Kathmandu were also analyzed and comparisons of both data sets characterized seasonal, treatment plant, and city sector variations in the drinking water quality. Results showed that 50% of well sources were microbially contaminated and surface water sources were contaminated in 100% of samples. No samples from drinking water treatment plant outflow were microbially contaminated; however almost 80% of samples collected at distribution points had microbial contamination and 60% were contaminated with E.coli. Drinking water quality varied little throughout the city but had significant seasonal variation. Microbial contamination in the Bagmati River was also studied and extremely high levels of microbial pollution were found. Pollution concentrations in the river are increasing over time as the population of the Valley grows rapidly. Wastewater treatment is virtually non-existent and most of the wastewater generated in the City flows untreated into the river. This causes increased pollution concentrations as the Bagmati flows downstream from the sparsely populated headwaters through the heavily urbanized Kathmandu City. Despite the high microbial pollution levels, many people use the river for washing, scavenging, and religious purposes. These activities, as well as contaminated drinking water, threaten the health of the population. Recommendations for drinking and surface water quality improvements can be divided into three areas: regulatory, policy, and technical. Laws and regulations are needed that specify those individuals and agencies who are responsible for water quality and monitoring, set water quality standards, and assign penalties to polluters. Drinking water policy must focus on fully funding programs and educating the public. Technical recommendations include separating drinking water and wastewater pipelines to eliminate leakage between the two and community or household-scale systems for both drinking water and wastewater treatment.

Abstract:
The Kathmandu Valley’s ancient stone spouts system provides a case study to understand uneven processes of urban modernization. Interviews and archival material from fieldwork in the Lalitpur District of Kathmandu provide evidence to understand the role of traditional infrastructure in modernization efforts. Rather than assuming there is something inherently traditional or modern, my research investigates ways in which people position themselves around ideas of tradition and see infrastructure as more than operational. Findings indicate that the labeling of the stone spout system as traditional through modes of use, management, valorization, and modification point to a dissatisfaction with modern development. This research provides a contemporary example of the traditional, demonstrating that despite dominant urban theorizing, urban modernization and the erasure of tradition are an impossible and incomplete process. These findings extend post-colonial urban scholarship by considering cities beyond limiting and universalizing categories of development. This thesis includes unpublished coauthored material.

Abstract:
AbstractIn this chapter we discuss the changing uses and management of a traditional canal irrigation system against the background of processes of urbanization in Kathmandu Valley in Nepal. Until urbanization of Kathmandu Valley took off in the 1980s, the management of stream-fed canal irrigation systems had been a priority of both state agencies and the population that depended on agriculture-based livelihoods. The name rajkulo (royal canal) given to these systems expresses the historical interests of (royal) state actors in canal maintenance and management. Fed by a stream called Mahadev Khola in Dadhikot, a peri-urban village in Kathmandu Valley, Mahadev Khola Rajkulo is such a traditional canal irrigation system. Using an in-depth case study of this system, we analyse the interlinkages of demographic, socio-environmental, economic and local political dynamics with the changing canal uses and management. More specifically, we discuss how and why various actors became associated with, or dissociated from, canal use and management in recent times, and what these processes mean for water access, rights and security. We reflect on the implications of these changes for canal management and canal-related conflicts, against the background of national urban policies that formally aim to conserve agricultural land in Kathmandu Valley, but stimulate urban expansion in practice.

Abstract:
Climate change and urbanisation are inextricably linked. With the acceleration of urbanisation in many developing countries, urban areas play a major role in energy consumption and carbon dioxide emissions. This is true of Nepal, which has experienced rapid urbanisation in recent decades. However, no studies were identified that evaluate the efforts of reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from low carbon cities in rapidly urbanising developing countries. Although, there is literature out there on this that focuses on developed countries and the Global North, this is outside the scope of this report. Given the rapid nature of this review and its limitations it was not possible to fully answer the question of whether investments in low-carbon cities reduce carbon emissions in rapidly urbanising contexts. The first section of this report looks at the theory of low carbon cities and touches on some of the methodologies for measuring carbon emissions from cities (and the complexities and difficulties with these). The second section looks at Nepal in more detail, highlighting previous literature which has attempted to quantify emissions from cities in Nepal (namely Kathmandu Valley) and the co-benefits of low carbon investment in Nepal. However, overall, literature was largely limited on these topics, and was often older being from 5 years or more ago. Of note is an emissions inventory for Nepal for 2016 by Sadavarte et al. (2019) – although other literature notes that data on emission characteristics are still limited (IMC Worldwide, 2020). ICLEI (2009) also produced city emissions profiles for 3 Nepalese cities, but these are quite outdated. There are several studies related to low carbon development pathways for major cities in developed countries or China, however such studies from the perspective of emerging cities from the developing world are limited. Research into other developing countries with similar characteristics to Nepal was briefly explored in this rapid review but there was not time to fully explore this literature base. Most of the literature explored is from academia, although some is from non-governmental organisations particularly those looking at engaging cities in climate action (such as C40). The literature explored does not look at gender issues or issues of people with disabilities.
