Aims: Understanding the habitat preferences and ecohydrological factors influencing Brown trout is essential for their effective conservation management, particularly in Himalayan River systems. However, lack of previous studies region poses a challenge. Therefore, study aimed to address research by exploring these factors, with focus on seasonal variations. Study Design: A field-based observational analyzing parameters using statistical methods (Kruskal-Wallis H tests, Fisher's Exact Test,...
Oxygen is the most commonly used drug and in treatment of hypoxaemia. Like any other drug, it should be prescribed appropriately with correct dose via device based on individual needs. Unmonitored unrestricted use oxygen can harmful to patients. The British Thoracic Society has set guidelines about indication use, target goals how we titrate according needs A quality improvement project was undertaken aim improving prescription among health personnel appropriate delivery patients an...
The Himalayan nation of Bhutan is known to embrace Gross National Happiness rather than Product as the measure its people's well-being. Happiness, spirituality and cultural authenticity are prominent factors in Bhutan's tourism image, these attributes most clearly exhibited traditional festivals that among popular attractions for many foreign tourists.

Merak–Sakteng is a remote area of Bhutan, which targeted for development tourism owing to the unique culture and way life semi-nomadic local 'Brokpa' people, whose livelihoods depend on herding yaks sheep. These livestock enter forests where residents government see their grazing as threatening crops causing environmental degradation. The centred livestock, has long been essential Brokpa economy, thus comes under threat. opening intended address this conflict by lessening Brokpas' economic...
Abstract Bhutan is known for its approach to high‐value, low‐volume tourism development. has been cited as an example of a best case sustainable tourism. However, like other landlocked countries, relies heavily on imported goods from neighbouring countries such India and Thailand, leading significant economic leakages. This raises the question how economically Bhutan's is. research employs mixed microeconomic macroeconomic analysis linkages leakages between different sectors in Bhutanese...
Notwithstandingly, soil nutrients testing methodologies are still a concern as most of them time consuming and require laborious sampling which is expensive. In this work, electronic nose (e-nose) based wireless sensor network designed particularly to solve issue. Soil sensing stations installed in precision agriculture farm can generate real data online keep track status on volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Portable e-nose was also deployed for discrimination VOCs formerly treated with...
The association of change in the pattern volatile organic compounds released from human body with a person's health has proved effective screening and diagnosing diseases. And smart devices getting integrated into our living environment, toilet that could monitor urine odor to indicate status through analysis would be great importance. For this reason, we have developed an electronic nose based on eight metal oxide gas sensors work functional as system can analyze odor. To evaluate...
Climate change due to global warming has incredibly contributed potential risk the agricultural farming system. The collective responsibility advocate food security and sustaining system is a key issue. While conventional techniques have combated meet demands, however provide access safe nutritious at probable growing population. At present, people are concerned more on importance of diet health since easily available inorganic farm products give threats people's by triggering unsolicited...
Climate change possesses vagaries threats to the subsequent livelihood of people in Bhutan and it is crucial enhance adaptive capacity. Therefore, building resiliency requires information on vulnerability system interest. this study assessed smallholder farmer’s impacts climate variability western parts (Punakha, Wangdue, Gasa) Bhutan. A survey was conducted from 392 randomly selected households based major components sociodemographic profiles, strategies, health, social network, food, water...
Globally, waste is accepted as an emerging issue and it concerns everyone, locally, nationally, globally. However, studies on generation, composition, management systems are often focused urban areas. Similarly, Bhutan lacks information reliable data about rural household solid generation its composition at large there vague systems. This paper presents precise in areas three administrative units called Gewogs namely Khatoed, Semjong, Phangkhar under Gasa, Tsirang, Zhemgang districts...
Crossing Bhutan is one of the shortest transits, and holds main breeding refuge/habitats for many Central Asian migratory birds. Our study assessed community structure waterbirds along Punatsangchhu River basin, located towards western part Bhutan. The determined species composition, habitat use preference waterbirds, together with different habitats present. Furthermore, examined potential drivers fragmentation river. entire area was classified into five habitats: dam, dredged area,...
Strategies for diversifying one's source of income are crucial the development rural households' rain-fed agricultural economies in developing nations like Bhutan. Participating off-farm and non-farm activities supports households tackling a variety difficulties, such as drought. Nonetheless, little study has been done on determining factors that affect households’ decisions about livelihood choices Bhutanese context. Therefore, this aims to examine influencing diversify their...
Natural saltlicks are used by mammal species mainly to supplement mineral deficiency playing critical role in animal ecology. There is information gap on the use of natural mammals Bhutan. Nine from Jomotsangkha Wildlife Sanctuary were purposively selected fill this information. The study aimed assess composition and ecological behaviour at saltlicks. composite soil samples randomly collected nine camera traps set up for a duration 56 days 2 January 28 February, 2019. Data management...
Understanding the Nature of science is a crucial part scientific literacy that helps students develop ideas about and make informed decisions. Science teachers’ knowledge essential to enhancing students’ understanding. This study examined 50 pre-service conceptions science. The data collected by administering questionnaire was analysed using descriptive statistics one-way analysis variance test. findings revealed teachers have uninformed science, particularly in tenets methods, theories...
