1	Dr. Win Naing Professor & Head	EI Nino and La Nian: Global Warming	There is a growing concern about the unprecedented global warming that we are experiencing in the present century and it is potential to trigger the global climate change. Recent occurrences of series of natural disasters, ranging from Sumatra earthquake and associated Tsunami in December 2004, to torrential rainfall anomaly in Mumbai in July 2005 and hurricanes Katrina, Rita and Wilma from the Atlantic, between August and October 2005, make one wonder whether they are the manifestation of changes mediated by global warming. India, with its extensive low-lying coastal areas having high population density which is subjected to frequent cyclones and storms, will be highly vulnerable under the projected scenario of global warming and sea-level rise. El Nino and La Nina conditions are associated with global warming and climate change. El Nino is an oscillation of the ocean- atmosphere system in the tropical Pacific having important consequences for weather around for weather around the globe. El Nino means “Little boy” or ‘Christ child’ in Spanish and often called warm event. La Nina means “The Little Girl” cold event of anti- El Nino.	Banmaw University Research Journal, Vol.1, No.1
2	Dr. Win Naing Professor & Head	Comparison of Urban Street Trees (During Two Periods 1954 and 1983) in Chanayethazan Township	The stud area, Chanayethazan township, is situated in central portion of Mandalay five township. In previous time, the study area was densely populated area among the five townships and core area of the urban Mandalay. At present time, it plays a significant role not only for urban development but also for commercial business. The main objectives of the study is to analyze the variation of urban trees in the study area during two periods (1954 and 1983). According to 1954 aerial photographs (1:60000 scale) of the study area, it was found that urban trees were densely populated in the area west of 86th north-south street. Some moderate population of trees were also found in the eastern part of the study area and along the streets of the study area. During 1954 periods, the total settlement number was not significantly high. Number of housings was moderately dispersed in the study areas. So, large number of open space was found during 1954 periods. Some of the areas were covered as “Le” land. In 1983, the total tree number was decreased and some open spaces disappeared due to the development of settlements in open spaces. The settlement housings were gradually increased in the study area. The new settlers replant the shady trees near their compound. In some places, the tree number was increased by new settlers who want to get shade near the home. Urban area of the study area was moderately congested with settlement housings. Some “Le” lands were changed into settlement area and open space was converted to residential area.

3	Dr. Win Naing Professor & Head	Geographical Study on Slope Condition in Street of Banmaw University Area	Banmaw University is situated in southernmost part of Nampha Ward. The total area of Banmaw University is 94.7 acres. General elevation of the study area is 385 feet above sea-level. The general landscape of the Banmaw University had level and undulating landform. There are three types of slope in Banmaw University area. They are level slope, gentle slope and medium slope. Field surveys were conducted in study area on March, 2020. Some 53 sample points were measured by Ushikarta Compass (LS-25). The elevation was measured by German GPS. According to the field result, the highest elevation areas were found in southern part of the study area. Near Nampha Cherry Hostel, the elevation was highest with 119 meters above sea level. The general elevation value is least near Main Building with only 104 meters above sea level. The general elevation is gradually increased to south ward and westward of the study area. According to field data, the highest value of ascend slope was found in southern part of the study area. Sample point number of 20 was the highest in ascend slope with 9 degrees. The highest descend slope value occurred in east-west street near rector home bridge. This area has “V” shape valley which has two types of sloe (ascend and descend slope) on bridge. The slope value (0° = zero degree) which was around the front and behind of the Main Building was generally low. These areas were nearly level lands. The elevation value was not significantly changed. In the west of the Main Building, the slope gradually increased to Seinlon Hostel. It is found that the valley areas and low hill areas are moderately high in slope value.	Banmaw University Research Journal
4	Dr. Win Naing Professor & Head	Geographical Analysis on Temperature Condition of Ye-Pu Chanung, Kyankhin Village, Momauk Township	Ye-Pu Chaung (or) Ye-Pu Twin is situated in south-western part of Kyankhin Village. Latitudinally, it lies between north latitude 24° 14’ 23” and 24° 14.84’ N. It lies between east longitudes 97° 20.88’ E and 97° 20.56’ E. It follows north to south direction. It is far from about 7,092ft from Momauk. The stream wate temperature and stream bed’s soil temperature do not have high temperature. Only in summer months, the temperature is high. Ye-Pu Chaung does not have the same geographically characteristics of other hot-springs in Myanmar. It is found that temperature of the stream water and stream bed’s soil is hotter than temperature in beneath the stream. Surface water of the Ye-Pu Chaung does not have high temperature only in the interior parts of stream’s bed, the temperature gradually increases. It is due to underground bed rock type and geothermal temperature within the bed rocks. Field surveys were conducted along the 20 sample points. It is found that the sample points’ temperatures in some locations are high in water and stream bed. The highest temperature points occurred in some location with 54° C.

5	Dr. Aye Aye Chit Associate Professor	Locational Analysis on the Distribution of Retail Shops in Myoma, Aleyat and Mingone Wards, Banmaw Town	Retail shop also known as retail outlet is a store that sells smaller quantities of products or services to the general public. In this study, only retail shops are formed excluding the retail services (like repairing shops, servicing shops, etc.). The study area was selected from the downtown area of Banmaw Town as the paper is aimed to examine the best location of a retail shop whether it is near or far from off the hub of transportation routes. In the study area, retail marketing comprises the activities related to selling products or giving services to the consumer through such channels as stores, vendors, or other fined locations. It was found that most retail shops which are near or close to the highway bus stand or ship harbor are warehouse stores and specialty shops, while more retail servicing shops could be noticed in Mingone ward which is on the way to airport.

6	Dr. Aye Aye Chit Associate Professor	Assessment on the Water Quality of Manyut Village in Banmaw Township	This present study investigated the ground water quality to assess by comparing with WHO Standards. The study area chosen is Manyut Village situated on the Banmaw – Mandalay Strategic Road. Most residents in Manyut Village depend on mainly ground water to supply water for drinking, bathing and other activities, 46 ground water samples were collected from different sites within the study area and water quality was analysed by using Waterproof Tester. The examined parameters were pH, Electrical Conductivity (EC), Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) and Temperature. In the study, it is found that the average values of parameters were observed as pH (5.7), EC (160.04 us), TDS (80.52 ppm), temperature (29.93˚ C) and depth (49.56 feet). The values of pH, EC and TDS of most water samples are less than the WHO standard values. Therefore, if water quality is not maintained, their water resources will be diminished than the present.

7	Dr. Aye Aye Chit Associate Professor	Analysis on the Rainfall Trends and Patterns of Banmaw Township (1980-2019)	Banmaw Township is located in the north of Tropic of Cancer and it falls in the sub-tropical climatic zone. Rainfall in Banmaw Township is highly dynamic and variable on a temporal scale. The research paper was studied on the rainfall trends and patterns in seasonal, monthly and annual scales in Banmaw Township for 40 years (1980-2019). The annual rainfall trend line was slightly decreasing at an average rate of 0.07 inches per year in Banmaw Township. During the last 40 years period, 16 years received above the annual mean rainfall and 24 years received under annual average rainfall. This indicates drier years than wetter within the last 40 years. Two years (2006 and 2019) were found as severe drought years in Banmaw Township. The moderately dryness year was found in the year of 2015. Also, a gradual annual decline in rainfall was observed using the Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI). The monthly rainfall trend line was slightly increasing at an average rate of 0.37 inches per year. The monthly rainfall distribution pattern of Banmaw Township by using five years interval was found only Uni-model during the last 40-year.	Pakokku University Research Journal
8	Dr. Aye Aye Chit Associate Professor	A Geographical Study on the Potentials of Wetland: A Case Study of Nampha In, Banmaw Township	The research paper emphasizes on the potentials of wetland in Banmaw Township from various geographical points of view. Nampha In, a wetland in northeastern part of Banmaw Town, is important for fishing, agriculture, hunting and the collection of natural resources for the livelihoods of local communities. Wetland is saturated with water, either permanently or seasonally. Nampha In wetland area of Banmaw Township is formed by Taping River and Hkai Pa Chaung especially during the rainy season. It provides fish to local people all the year round. About 46 species of fish are found in the lake. Its adjacent unflooded highland areas or the water-retreated lowland areas of the In are most useful for crop cultivation at least once a year. Depending on the wetland of Nampha In, major occupations such as fishing, agriculture and floating fuel wood are done. Although there are many natural resources in Nampha In, very less number of occupancy still utilized the natural resources of Nampha In area.	Pakokku University Research Journal
9	Dr. Pale Khin Associate Professor	The Development of Cottage Industry in Letpanhla Village (A Case Study Wood Furniture Work)	Economic life of rural area is mostly based on primary economic activities particularly agriculture. The area under study, Letpan hla Village, is distinctive for its development of some secondary economic activities such as wood furniture work and lathe and welding work. This study emphasizes on wood furniture work. One major reason for selecting this type of economic activity is related to the enrichment of the forest product (e.g Timber). Being located near by the forest and by the Mandalay City itself, the area possesses the double chances for both development of raw material and market oriented economic patterns. However, it is found that this work can no longer be survived for the gradual shortage of raw materials ( timber ) and reformation of trade and commerce policy. Although there is significant decrease in availability of raw material, the demand of finished products especially furniture is still increasing from the urban market. To minimize the transportation cost and due to bulky and fragile nature of furniture, most wood works are leading to raw material oriented pattern. The study shows that numbers of furniture works were increased year after year but its products and market were changed with unexpected manner. And thus no one can exactly know the above situation whether it is developed or not.	Mandalay University Research Journal
10	Dr. Pale Khin Associate Professor	ANALYSIS ON PATTERNS OF CROP CONCENTRATION IN SINGU TOWNSHIP	The research paper is about “Analysis on Pattern of Crop Concentration in Singu Township”. Cropping Patterns are extent to which the arable land under different agricultural activities can be put into use. By using Bhatia (1960), this method used index of concentration of crop. The main aim is to analyze the crop patterns of Singu Township and village tracts with a view to bringing out the areal concentration. The agriculture complex analyzes the distribution of physical and economic condition. It is found that the types of cultivated crop mainly vary with types of agricultural land and many different types of crops are found in different parts of Singu Township.

11	Dr. Myo Tun Associate Professor	Geographical Analysis of Population in Mohnyin Township	Population of Mohmyin Township is examined from a geographical point of view. MohnyinTownship is located in Southern Kachin State with about 2,578.51 sq. mile of area.It is a high mountainous region with Gangaw ranges on the east and Hmankin ranges on the west between which the Namyin Creek flows from south to north forming fertile Namyin alluvial plain and plain around the Indawgyi Lake which is the largest inland lake of the country. Mohnyin Township is providing the fertile alluvial plain for agriculture and population settlement. In2014, Mohnyin Township is composed of Mohnyin and Hopin with 37 Village Tracts with total population 209,292 persons. Its population has increased at about 1.4% growth rate since 1973. Total population is composed of 101,598 males and 107,694 females with 65,589 young, 133,381 adults and 10,322 olds. Dependencyratio is 56.91:100.Based upon, GDP, life expectancy, education, health condition and infrastructure, level of living standard is found to be high due to concentration of people on fertile alluvial plain of the Namyin Valley and the Indawgyi plain, GDP and per capital income are increasing since 2012 and Hopin could be developed into an urban area because of its natural resource rich hinterland and rapidly developed commercial and transportation.

12	Dr. Myo Tun Associate Professor	Geographical Study on Paddy Concentration of Mohnyin Township	Mohnyin Township lies in the southernmost portion of Kachin State with about 1,650,248 acres of the area. The area is a mountainous region with high mountain ranges among which the Namyin Valley and the Indawgyi Lake areas are formed as fertile alluvial plains. Fertile soils, flat lands for easy movement of people and favourable climatic conditions, Mohnyin Township became a distinct human settlement area and crop producing area in Kachin State with a famous nation as the bowl of Kachin State. With the developing socio-economic conditions, the regional development was gained in many parts of Mohnyin Township, especially in Hopin area due to commerce and transportation with jade mine area. These socio-economic conditions caused the increased paddy prices year by year and paddy cultivated areas were extended greatly after 1990, while average paddy yields also increased from 66 baskets to over 80 baskets in 2016-2017. The Indawgyi Lake area is the largest paddy cultivated and producing area in Mohnyin Township and it is also the highest paddy concentrated area among four areas of Mohnyin Township. The paper found that promotion of paddy concentration and production is directly related with irrigation water supply for double cropping of paddy and the application of improved seeds, agricultural machineries and post harvesting technologies.

13	Dr. Myo Tun Associate Professor	A Geographical Study on Human Resource Development of Mohnyin Township	Human resource development (HRD) of Mohnyin Township is examined from a geographical point of view. Mohnyin is a township in Mohnyin District in the southern most portion of Kachin State. The township is composed of Mohnyin and Hopin Town with 9wards and 37 village tracts with a total area of about 2,578.51 sq. mile. According to 2014 census, the township is settled by 209,292 persons including 56,642 urban populations and 152,650 rural populations. The area is a mountainous region and the population is concentrated in the Namyin valley in the middle portion of the township from south to north and in the Indawgyi area in the northern portion of the township. Fertile alluvial plain provide for development of human settlement, food production and easy accessibility to other parts of the country. Powerful kingdom occurred in Mohnyin Township during colonial period and it became an administration center during colonial period. After 1988, regional development works were carried out and Mohnyin become a district administration center. As people are consumers as well as producers, human resources development requires special attention for regional socio-economic development.

14	Dr. Myo Tun Associate Professor	A GEOGRAPHICAL ANALYSIS ON ROADS TRANSPORTATION NETWORK OF MOHNYIN TOWNSHIP, KACHIN STATE	Road Transportation is examined for Mohnyin Township in Kachin state. Mohnyin is a Township in Kachin State in Northern Myanmar, lying between 24º 31' and 25º 27' north latitude and between 96º 02' and 96º 49' east longitudes, with a total area of about 2,579 square miles (about 6,679 square kilometers). Mohnyin Township is composed of 4 towns and 37 village tracts settled by 219,292 persons. Being a mountainous region with the Hmankin range in the east and Kumon range in the west, the central Namyin valley became the places for human settlement and human activities, road transport being the major mean of movement of goods and people. Another major human settlement area in Mohnyin Township is the Indawgyi area, where the largest inland lake of Myanmar built up fertile alluvial soils for productive agriculture. The major roads in Mohnyin Township are found to be connected these areas with each other while the major transportation roads are running along the Namyin creek in the central portion of Mohnyin. These roads perform transportation of the goods and people in and outside of Mohnyin Township.
15	Dr. Myint Myint Kyi Associate Professor	Geographical Analysis on Settlement Patterns in Mohnyin Township	Human settlement patterns in Mohnyin Township are examined from a geographical point of view. Mohnyin Township is a township in Southern Kachin State with over 2,578.51 sq. mile of area. In 2014, MohnyinTownshop is settlemed by 209,292 persons in Mohnyin and Hopin Towns and in 37 Village Tracts. According to its location in the mountainous region on the north of the Tropics of Cancer, the area receives humid sub-tropical monsoon climate. The majority of the people settled in the alluvial plain along the Namyin Creek and plain around the Indawgyi Lake which support agriculture, transportation and daily use water. The general settlement patterm according to quadrat and nearest neighbor analyses is the cluster settlement pattern with local variations including farmstead settlement, linear, scatter and compact pattern, as well as random patterns.The human settlement pattern are found to be influenced by relief condition, availability of water, transportation and other infrastructures. It is found that environmental conditions are still under favourable conditions and it is needed to supply infrastructure, education and economic assistances for the regional development of Mohnyin Township.

16	Dr. Myint Myint Kyi Associate Professor	Geographical Analysis on Socio-economic Well-being of Mohnyin Township	Socio-economic level of Mohnyin Township was studied from a geographic point of view. Mohnyin was a township in southern Kachin State and its human settlement started in before Christian Era. The township is located in a mountainous region on the north of Tropic of Cancer and receives sub-tropical monsoon climate with over 68" of annual rainfall and 75°F of mean annual temperature. The alluvial soils were built up in the Namyin valley and the Indawgyi area where almost all of human settlement are concentrated. As the majority of the people are rural residents it is necessary to carry out rural development programme systemically and this paper attempted to access the condition of socio-economic well being of rural areas by Composite Index of level of living standard, method developed by Jasbir Singh. The result shows that rural areas have favourable socio-economic conditions. It can be the result of high agricultural production and supply of infrastructure – education, health, transportation, etc., by national and regional authorities.

17	Dr. Myint Myint Kyi Associate Professor	A GEOGRAPHICAL ANALYSIS ON SOCIO-ECONOMIC CONDITION OF RURAL AREA IN MOHNYIN TOWNSHIP	Rural development of Mohnyin Township is examined from a geographical point of view. Mohnyin is a township in Kachin State lying between 24° 25' N and 25° 27' N Latitudes and 95° 45' E and 96° 50' E Longitudes with a total area of about 2,578.51 square miles. The township is composed of two towns and 37 village tracts and it is settled by 209,292 persons in 2014 census. All settlement areas are located in the Namyin valley in the middle portion and around the Indawgyi Lake in the northern portion of the township. Fertile alluvial plain provided for development of agriculture and easy accessibility to various parts of country. The Favourable conditions in agriculture, trade and transportation brought about rural development with density populated areas and these conditions are examined to assess the rural development of Mohnyin Township. It is found that population increase and economic development in rural areas lead to urbanization and Hopin become an urban area from a village tract and there also come some large village tracts which are in the stage to become urban areas.

18	Dr. Myint Myint Kyi Associate Professor	“Settlement Patterns in Mohnyin and Hopin, Kachin State”	Human settlement of Mohnyin Township was examined from a geographical point of view in this research. Mohnyin Town was founded by the Prince Saekyanpha in 302 Myanmar Era (940 A.D) and it became a township in 1957 with a total area of 2578.72 sq km. At present, Mohnyin Township is composed of Mohnyin and Hopin towns with 9 wards and 37 village tracts. All human settlement areas are distributed along the Namyin creek and around the Indawgyi area. General settlements are identified as clustered pattern according to the nearest neighbour analysis. The result shows that the clustered pattern in the neighbouring areas of Mohnyin and Hopin towns, random settlement pattern in outward areas from 4 km distance of the two towns and linear settlement pattern along the road and rail road. It is found that the settlement patterns are mainly influenced by the availability of water with nearly 60%, fertile agricultural lands with about 20% and accessibility to other areas by road and railway with just over 20%. In some cases the above mentioned three situations are well overlapped. Similarly, Hopin became an important urban centre from a rural area depending upon gradual development of urban amenities such as hospital, administrative offices, police station, etc.	Banmaw University Research Journal, 2020 May, Vol.11, Pg.67-84

20	Dr. Myint Myint Kyi Associate Professor	An Analytical View on Solid Waste Disposal in Banmaw from an Environmental Perspective	Waste disposed system of Banmaw is studied from a geographical point of view. Banmaw is the administrative center of Banmaw Township with a total area of about 25.59 square miles and 16 wards. In 2019, the town is settled by 53,049 persons. With the increasing population disposal of solid wastes becomes as a growing problem in Banmaw. Most of these solid wastes come from homes and markets and the highest quantities of solid wastes are found in Paukkone, Thizi, Naungkho and Khuntha ward. Waste disposal system of Banmaw is managed by BanmawTownship Municipality Department. The people also practice landfill, burning and other method while some households reuse their solid wastes to some extent. Wastes are disposed in various ways to municipality wastes collection system as well as community waste disposal system some households used to dispose their wastes. Some households also used to burn their wastes in their compounds and there is a high positive correlation between the amount of waste and population.
21	U Aung Myint Lecturer	DROUGHT ASSESSMENT USING REMOTE SENSING AND GIS, UNDER CLIMATE CHANGE IN THE MANDALAY REGION OF MYANMAR	In general, droughts have been classified into three categories in terms of impact which are: Meteorological drought, Hydrological drought and Agricultural drought. Drought is the most complex but least understood of all natural hazards. It is broadly defined as “severe water shortage”. Low rainfall and fall in agricultural production has mainly caused droughts. A drought impact constitutes losses of life, human suffering and damage to economy and environment. Droughts have been a recurring feature of the Myanmar climate therefore study of Historical droughts may help in the delineation of major areas facing drought risk and thereby management plans can be formulated by the government authorities to cope with the disastrous effects of this hazard. Drought affects millions of people worldwide on an annual basis. Economically, it is the most devastating of all natural disasters. Droughts are difficult to predict due to their slow onset. And in the aftermath, the long-term effects are often long lasting and widespread, making them difficult to recuperate fromquickly. Some of these effects include loss of human and animal life, reduced crop and forest productivity, water scarcity and rationing, increased risk of fires, and damage to animal and fish habitats. Only a few countries have in place adequate drought mitigation strategies, instead relying on post-impact management strategies to deal with the effects of drought once the worst has transpired. One essential element to changing the discourse on drought is to incorporate it into our language and policy as an expected and natural part of climatic activity. Drought conditions in Myanmar are the basis for further actions on drought management and for the development of drought management policy at the country level.The dry zone, central area of Myanmar is the area vulnerable to drought as compared to other parts of the country. This dry zone area covers 67,700 km2 and 10 % of the total area. This area is characterized by low rainfall, intense heat and degraded soil conditions, affecting social and economic situations of the communities living in the region. There are about 35 % of the cultivable lands in dry zone within the 3regions (including 54 townships under 13 districts). The temperature is very high and the hottest is in April and May. The precipitation in dry zone is controlled by the monsoon circulation system. Annual rainfall is less than 750 mm (national average precipitation is 2353 mm). In Myanmar, drought years were observed as 1972, 1979, 1982, 1983, 1986 and 1987.General description of drought conditions in 2010–2015 is crucial for drought studies and drought policy development. In this period, the extreme temperature was recorded 47.2 °C on 14.5.2010 at Myinmu in dry zone area. The highest temperature was recorded at 20 stations during May. Inle Lake, which is the major tourist destination in Shan State of Myanmar, has been dried up in many parts. Water shortage was most severe in Ayeyarwaddy, Sagaing, Yangon, Mandalay and Bago Regions and Mon, Rakhine and Shan States in 2010. Most of the wells were dried up due to the depletion of underground water supply because of late of Monsoon onset and so the scarcity of drinking water problems occurred in Myanmar.According to the Drought Annual Report of Department of Meteorology and Hydrology, the drought mostly occurred in dry zone area during Pre and Peak Monsoon period of 2010, the drought slightly occurred in Myanmar during 2011 and during 2012 & 2013, the severe and moderate drought occurred in dry zone area, some regions and states and mild drought occurred in some regions and states. The drought mainly impact to the agricultural fields, farmers, drinking water scarcity and also impact to social, economic, health, public, livestock and environment of Myanmar. The NDVI and rainfall was found to be highly correlated (r=0.6) in water limiting areas. Apart from this, the highest NDVI-rainfall correlation associated with one-month time lage shows rainfall event induced vegetation growth in subsequent periods. The NDVI-rainfall correlation was found to be highly influenced by mean rainfall condition and vegetation types. Highest NDVI-rainfall correlation was obtained for vegetation types in rain fed crops, followed by irrigated crops and subsequently by forest with minimum correlation. It is therefore concluded that temporal variations of NDVI are closely linked with precipitation. This drought risk area evaluation study involved the integration of Geographic Information Systems and Remote Sensing technology. Dry season data was acquired for 2 different years and was processed to detect vegetation condition change in response to drought. Physical and meteorological factors were analyzed and drought risk areas were identified based on the criteria of NDVI. NDVI change between a normal year (1995) and drought year (2015) was analyzed for each drought risk area. It was found that the value of the NDVI is lower in high drought risk areas, which justifies the modified criteria of NDVI.	Mandalay Technological University
22	Dr. Mi Tin Nilar Soe Lecturer	A Geographyical Study on Availability of Water Sources in Mawlamyine City	Water is one of the basic essentials for the existence of human being, animals and plants. At present about one-third of the world population is living in the urban area. Locationally, Myanmar have receives Tropical Monsoon Climate because of the sea effect. Mawlamyine City has abundant seasonal rainfall. The City dwellers depend on reservoir, river, ponds, tube-wells and surface wells water sources, apart from rainwater. There are four public water supply sources in Mawlamyine City.The current coverage ratio of Mawlamyine City Water Supply Committee is about 55 percent (MCWSC, 2014); therefore the remaining 45 percent have to rely on the private water supply sources. Water consumption differs from place to place and from ward to ward depending on location, relief, drainage and geology. The daily per capita consumption of about two- thirds of the sample household is less than 25 gallons in both seasons. Therefore, the daily per capita water consumption in Mawlamyine City is less than 25 gallons.	Banmaw University Research Journal, 2020, Vol.11, No.1,Pg.67-84
