    Local projections of future sea-level change are important for understanding climate change risks and informing coastal management decisions. Reliable and relevant coastal risk information is especially important in South Asia, where large populations live in low-lying areas and are at risk from coastal inundation. A new set of local sea-level projections for selected tide gauge locations in South Asia have been produced over the 21st century under the RCP2.6, RCP4.5 and RCP8.5 scenarios by the UK Met Office for the Asia Regional Resilience to a Changing Climate Programme.

    This is the ensemble average annual precipitation sum data from 1981 to 2100 for 77 districts of Nepal. This data was prepared using four RCP4.5 and four RCP8.5 models with spatial coverage of whole Nepal at 10 km by 10 km resolution. It also contains the standard deviation to show the variability among the models in each RCP.

    Resilient Mountain Solution (RMS) and RMS Poverty and Vulnerability Assessment (PVA) is a ward level household survey to have get a deeper understanding of Dadeldhura site. The survey was a part of the case study at covering multiple issues focusing on agricultural and animal husbandry practices, energy use, environmental and socioeconomic changes faced, their impact and coping to identify emerging issues, determinants of vulnerability and develop solution to improve their resilience for enhanced livelihoods. The survey covers 110 households across the 5 wards of Bhageswor rural municipality in Dadeldhura which was purposively selected. Household selection for the survey was done following random sampling method within the wards.

    Poverty and Vulnerability Assessment (PVA) is a district level household survey to understand vulnerability of households to environmental and socioeconomic changes with focus on mountain specificity as well as their coping strategies and adaptive capacity. Under the Adaptation to Change program, the Himalaya Climate Change Adaptation Programme (HICAP) initiative have conducted the survey among 1139 households across 3 Union Councils in Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa and Gilgit-Baltistan provinces in the Upper Indus sub-basin in Pakistan. The households were selected following a probability based multi-stage cluster sampling approach.
