TRAINING MATERIAL FOR PRACTICAL SESSIONS Advanced Center for Water Resources Development and Management
The training material for practical sessions at the Advanced Center for Water Resources Development and Management covers essential topics in hydrogeology and watershed management. Key subjects include measurement units, toposheet reading, drainage analysis, and the integration of weather data for groundwater studies. Participants will learn about groundwater contour mapping, the use of Piper diagrams for water quality analysis, and methods for measuring spring discharge and water quality. The curriculum also emphasizes practical fieldwork and data collection, culminating in a socio-hydrological survey aimed at developing effective water management plans for local communities. -
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.
