This study assessed the hydropower potential of a mountain watershed within the Sunkoshi River basin in Sindupalchok, Nepal, utilizing Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) hydrological model. Topographical, soil and land use, meteorological, and discharge data were employed to characterize the study...

Water resources assessment and management in ungauged basins are highly challenging but important task. It requires accurate simulation and estimation of streamflow characteristics. This study focuses on the simulation of rainfall-runoff processes in an ungauged Fusre River basin, a tributary of Seti River basin, Nepal using a semi-distributed...

Integrating the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) into climate actions is essential for a healthy planet and people. Yet, national climate policies and international climate support programs often fail to explicitly recognize the interconnections between climate concerns and other priorities covered under the SDGs. This failure can leave key...

平成29年５月に「合法伐採木材等の流通及び利用の促進に関する法律」（通称「クリーンウッド法」）が施行され、同年11月からは、同法に基づく木材関連事業者の登録が始まった。このような中、木材関連事業者が同法に基づく合法性の確認等を効率的に行うことができるよう、国は同法第４条に基づき、同年５月から情報提供サイト「クリーンウッド・ナビ」を公開し、国別・地域別の違法伐採関連情報の提供を行っている。本事業は、「クリーンウッド・ナビ」の掲載情報の更新・拡充を行うとともに、掲載情報に関する事業者等からの問合せに対応することを目的とした。具体的には、①生産国における情報調査（カナダ　ブリティッシュ・コロンビア州とオーストリア）、②「クリーンウッド・ナビ」の更新情報に関するコンテンツ作成、③「クリーンウッド...

COP21 で採択されたパリ協定においては、世界全体の平均気温の上昇を２℃より⼗分下⽅に抑える世界共通の⽬標が設定され、我が国のみならず、世界全体での⼤幅削減が必要である。また、我が国においては、昨年10 ⽉に菅内閣総理⼤⾂が2050 年までにカーボンニュートラルを⽬指すことを宣⾔したほか、今年4 ⽉には2030 年度に温室効果ガス46％の削減、さらに50％の⾼みに向け挑戦する旨を宣⾔しており、脱炭素社会の構築が求められている。 2019 年6 ⽉に我が国が議⻑国となり開催された、G20 持続可能な成⻑のためのエネルギー転換と地球環境に関する関係閣僚会合では、イノベーションをテーマとする議論が⾏われ「軽井沢イノベーションアクションプラン」が採択された。こうしたG20 の成果を受けて...

Illumination variations in non-atmospherically corrected high-resolution satellite (HRS) images acquired at different dates/times/locations pose a major challenge for large-area environmental mapping and monitoring. This problem is exacerbated in cases where a classification model is trained only on one image (and often limited training data) but...

This case study reports on the development of a healthcare waste management (HCWM) system at Tribhuvan University Teaching Hospital (TUTH) in Nepal where the intervention began in 2014 with support from HECAF 360, a local NGO, and Health Care Without Harm (HCWH), an international NGO, and WHO Nepal. It describes the approach and path followed by...

CONSERVATION, RESTORATION AND management of forest resources are critical for addressing climate change. Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) are a vehicle for targeted climate actions, including those related to forest management, by countries towards contributing global efforts agreed under the Paris Agreement.
