AbstractProceedings of an International Conference, Kathmandu, Nepal, 24- 28 March 1996. The main objectives were to discuss principal issues concerning the ecohydrology of high mountain areas and to help specify the needs of regional studies. Papers were divided into six topic areas: regional issues on high mountain ecohydrology; network design, instrumentation, data collection and processing methodology and modelling; atmospheric, hydrological and ecological interactions; role of permafrost, glaciers and snow covers; dynamics and hazards of erosion and sedimentation, ecosystems of high mountain areas and landscape processes; and water quality and limnological issues.
