- W4313366496 abstract "Lying in the hill region, most of the settlements of Chāngunārāyan municipality are not accessible due to rugged terrains and lack of roads, and thus they are isolated, marginalized and environmentally vulnerable where mostly the poor people live. Based on detailed field mapping and statistical data, GIS technique has been used to analyze the terrain hazard risk areas such as landslides, floods and soil liquefaction potential vis-à-vis human settlements and built infrastructure. The findings show that less than one-fifth of the municipality area is suitable for settlements. They include mostly the existing traditional settlements lying on the ridge and surrounding areas, while over four-fifths are naturally vulnerable. More than 200 landslides occurring mostly in its eastern and northern parts were identified on the 2018 satellite images. In 2016 and 2018, the settlements and agricultural fields around the rivers were submerged due to flash floods. Mostly the poor and landless communities have built their houses on such vulnerable lands. The southern and south-western parts have a high risk of liquefaction hazard potential whereas other parts (northern and eastern) have zero risk of liquefaction with no or a very low susceptibility. The built-up area has increased by over 27% encroaching haphazardly upon prime agricultural land and hill slopes during the years 2012 and 2017. The built-ups continue to increase due to its own population growth, as well as to the rapid urban expansion of the two large neighbor-cities of Kathmandu and Bhaktapur. Planning for sustainable human settlements situated in such terrain hazard areas is suggested." @default.
