Table 6.1 Outline of the investigated districts conditions in Nepal. Because of the landlocked nature of the country, the climate is dry and hot in summer. In summer, the relative humidity is not too high; thus it feels pleasant in shaded areas. Nepal lies in low latitudes (26°—30° north), and therefore the solar radiation is high in winter. In Nepal, generally summer is in May and winter is in January (Fig. 6.2). Bhaktapur is an urban area and the other districts are rural. In rural areas agriculture is the main occupation and firewood or livestock dung is used for cooking and heating.
