摘要: Nepal, as a part of the earth, cannot remain untouched by global climate change. This study identifies indicators changing at local level, particularly sub-watershed in mid-hills Nepal. It shows that considerable warming has occurred area. The average temperature risen 1.5 °C from 21.6 during 1978-82 to 23.1 2001-06. Annual rainfall is fluctuating; prolonged dry periods and short but intense rainy season are being observed recent years. also non-climatic area such increase insects pests, spread invasive species higher elevations, change flowering time harvest etc. Key words: warming, indicator, temperature, rainfall, pests Full text available ForestAction website Journal Forest Livelihood 8(1) February 2009 pp.99-105
