भोटेकोसी नदीमा आएको विनाशकारी बाढीपछि त्रिशूली नदी करिडोरमा परेको प्रभाव, नदीको बहावमा आएको परिवर्तन, गेग्य्रान तथा लेदोको निक्षेप, नदी कटान, पहिरो तथा अन्य भौगर्भिक एवं विपद्जन्य जोखिमका विषयमा नेपाल भौगर्भिक समाजमा आबद्ध सदस्यहरुको टोलीले स्थलगत अध्ययन गरिरहेको छ।
समाजको अध्ययन टोलीले आज त्रिशूली क्षेत्रका विभिन्न स्थानमा स्थलगत अवलोकन तथा आवश्यक तथ्याङ्क संकलन गरी काठमाडौं फर्कने क्रममा रहेको छ।
यस अध्ययनबाट प्राप्त प्रारम्भिक तथ्य तथा अवलोकनलाई समाजका सदस्यहरूमाझ छलफल गरी निकट भविष्यमा उपलब्ध नतिजा तथा प्राविधिक जानकारी आदानप्रदान गर्ने र त्यसका आधारमा नेपाल भौगर्भिक समाजको आधिकारिक धारणा तयार गरी राष्ट्रिय विपद् जोखिम न्यूनीकरण तथा व्यवस्थापन प्राधिकरण (NDRRMA) लगायत सम्बन्धित सरकारी तथा सरोकारवाला निकायसमक्ष प्रस्तुत गर्ने उद्देश्य राखिएको छ।
यस कार्यलाई थप तथ्यपरक र प्रभावकारी बनाउन त्रिशूली तथा आसपासका क्षेत्रमा भएको भौगर्भिक जोखिम नदीको बहाव, गेग्य्रान/लेदो निक्षेप, कटान, पहिरो, क्षति तथा अन्य जोखिमसँग सम्बन्धित फोटो, भिडियो, स्थानसम्बन्धी विवरण वा अन्य उपयोगी सूचना उपलब्ध गराइदिनुहुन सम्बन्धित सबैमा हार्दिक अनुरोध गर्दछौं। तपाईंले उपलब्ध गराउनुभएको सूचना/सामग्रीको स्थान, मिति र सम्भव भएसम्म संक्षिप्त विवरणसमेत उल्लेख गरिदिनुहुन र फोटो भिडियोमा क्रेडिट दिन मिल्ने गरी कुनै संकेत(वाटरमार्क वा क्याप्सन) समेत राखिदिनुहुन अनुरोध छ।
कृपया यहाँहरुसंग रहेको विवरण तथा सूचना यस समाजको अफिसियल ह्वाट्सअप ग्रुपमा राखिएको लिङ्कमा रहेको ड्राईभमा शेयर गरिदिनुहोला।

Technical Assessment of the Trishuli River Corridor Following the Bhotekoshi Flood

The technical team of the Nepal Geological Society (NGS) conducted a field assessment yesterday covering the flood-affected area from Devighat to Krishnabhir.

The field observations indicate that the Trishuli River has significantly changed its flow direction within its floodplain. In several locations, the pre-flood geomorphology is no longer clearly recognizable, while new patterns of sediment deposition have developed.

More than 10 metres of sediment accumulation was observed in parts of the Devighat area. Agricultural lands above Mahadev Phant have also been extensively covered by deposited sediments. The changed river course and newly formed deposits indicate that areas along the river corridor, including the highway and agricultural land in the lower reaches, remain at considerable risk.

The team has also identified the potential for further toe cutting and riverbank erosion, which could trigger additional hazards in the coming days. Continuous monitoring and detailed technical assessment of the changed river course, sediment deposits, and erosion processes are therefore essential.

The NGS technical team will continue its field assessment today, extending towards Nuwakot and Rasuwa. We will compile the findings and submit a technical assessment report to the concerned authorities at the earliest to support appropriate response, risk reduction, and recovery measures.

Nepal Geological Society remains committed to providing technical expertise and support to the concerned authorities during this difficult time.
