Environmental data is still a new and incomplete area in Nepal. It can be difficult both to discover what data are available and to obtain access to them. Relevant data are scattered among many institutions, and are often unpublished. There are many gaps and inconsistencies, problems in data quality, lack of clear information about methods and definitions used, lack of time series, and lack of comparability between different data sets.
These issues have been highlighted in the appropriate sections in this book. Nevertheless, the information published here provides a basis for assessing the state of the environment in Nepal, as well as factors like environmental governance, financing, and trade that influence it. The extensive sources listed will provide future researchers with a basis for identifying new sources of data for future work, and it is hoped that the identification of gaps and needs will encourage further development of an "environmental statistics" culture in the country.
