This new book stands out by offering a localized, multidisciplinary study specifically tailored to the unique topography and climate of Nepal’s Himalayan river basins. Compared to other works, it integrates experimental and simulation-based approaches to assess precipitation extremes, sediment yield, streamflow in ungauged basins, and urbanization impacts—offering both academic depth and practical policy relevance.
The key audience includes researchers, academicians, environmental engineers, hydrologists, policymakers, and postgraduate students working in the fields of climate change adaptation, hydrology, and sustainable water management. The content is also relevant to professionals in development planning, infrastructure design, and disaster risk reduction, especially in mountainous and climate-vulnerable regions.
