Abstract: |
Agri~ulture i3 vulnerable to climate. It is weather dependent. Nepal has a wide variety of climates from subtropics in the south, warm and cool in the hills, to cold in the mountains, which determ'ines . overall biodiJ~ersity and agriculhtral development activities. This paper presents the climatic scenarios of three Agricultural Research Stations of Neap Agricultural Research Council representing terai, hill and mountain bidts. Bhairahawa at 109m as/ is the hottest among .the selected station with daily maximum temperature 36.44 °C on dry daYs and 33.61 °C on wet days during July and May respectively. The probably of wet days is higher on the month of July-August. And the total daily precipitation is higher during July when daily hours of bright sunshine is the lowest 30.51 % of day length on wet days. Khumaltar 1350m as/ with the highest daily maximum . temperahtre 29.02 °C and minimum lemperature 20.04 °C on d1y days has higher probability of wet· days during July when the daily hours of bright sunshine is the lowest 28.12 % of day length on wet days. Similarly, Jumla at 2300m as/ has the highest daily maximum temperature 26.65 °C and minimum lemperah.tre 15.87 °C on dry days. Here, the higher probability of daily precipitation falls during August. At Bhairahawa, the daily maximum temperature is increasing at the rate of0.05 OC . per year where as at Khumaltar the daily maximum temperature is increasing at the rate of0.12 OC . per year. There is no increase in daily maximum temperature at Jumlt:J.. During 1997 some extreme events are found in all Jhe selected stations. However, high and low precipitations are observed in some years, there is no significant increase trend of total annual precipilatian over the years. · |
