Abstract

Nepal is particularly susceptible to climate-related disasters and experiences frequently landslides, debris flow and floods because of its varied topography and geological characteristics, together with torrential rain during the monsoon season. Today, there is need of finding better options to adapt with the effect of climate change. This research is based on a case study of Ksedi River catchment, Ajgada village of Hadiya in Udayapur district of Nepal, tries to demonstrate the best options for dealing with flood for making sustainability with long-term benefits. This research recommends Ecosystem based Adaptation and Engineering Options that are feasible in the village and watershed area to reduce the flood impacts. It is recommended for reforestation of upland forest areas, prioritization of adaptation options to receive maximum benefits and further detail study of EbA considering Payment of Ecosystem Services.

基于生态系统的适应(EbA)和工程选择(EOs)作为气候变化引起的洪水灾害的解决方案——尼泊尔乌达亚普尔地区Ajgada村

尼泊尔特别容易受到与气候有关的灾害的影响，由于其多变的地形和地质特征，加上季风季节的暴雨，尼泊尔经常经历山体滑坡、泥石流和洪水。今天，我们需要找到更好的选择来适应气候变化的影响。本研究基于尼泊尔Udayapur地区Hadiya Ajgada村Ksedi河流域的一个案例研究，试图展示应对洪水的最佳选择，以实现可持续发展和长期效益。本研究提出了基于生态系统的适应和工程方案，在村庄和流域地区是可行的，以减少洪水的影响。建议在高地森林地区重新造林，优先考虑适应方案以获得最大利益，并进一步详细研究考虑生态系统服务支付的EbA。
