Sindhupalchok Spring hydrogeology, Nepal The technical report on Sindhupalchok's hydrogeology highlights the region's complex geology, featuring schists and gneisses, and the impact of recent earthquakes on spring behavior. The study identified six springs and assessed their recharge areas, noting that many springs have dried up or changed due to geological disturbances. Recommendations include implementing staggered contour trenching and vegetation planting to enhance groundwater recharge, particularly in areas used for agriculture. Overall, Sindhupalchok has significant groundwater resources, necessitating effective management and awareness to maintain sustainability amid environmental changes.
