Nepalese Monsoon !

Definitely, a linkage between EL Nino/La Nina and the Nepalese monsoon could be found sigificant. We are still working on that with reference to a small catchment in my home district of Tanahun ! Lets see what happens and how far we can go into that !

2. El Nino/ La Nina

High radioactivity area in the Kathmandu Valley

Photographs of Shivapuri Area in the northern border of the Valley

Last year I carried out research on the nuclear background radiation in the Shivapuri area.

I ended up with the following conclusion:

Though tolerable to humans, certain locations have higher level of natural radioactivity in the soil. The locations are Tokha Jhor area, Budhanilakantha, Salinadi area and Narayan Khola.

I have joined the blogworld

I have joined the blogworld.

Though I have been reading blogs for a couple of years, finally I have started blogging.

Being an environmentalist I have got my observation to share with the world, which I will be doing through this blog.

I am also a repsonsible citizen--politically conscious one- so I may have some commentaries over the social and political happenings around me. So blog can be, I think, the best platform for me to express myself.

Since I believe in sharing, I would appreciate your comments. Comment is reward for the writer. Don't you agree with me?

Amen.
