Amrit Marasini

Engineering Geologist

I study how Nepal's slopes, rock and groundwater behave, and turn field observations into clear technical reports for hydropower, infrastructure and settlement safety.

What I work on

Hydropower design

Engineering geological input for project sites and structures.

Slope stability

Analysis of natural and cut slopes in Himalayan terrain.

Geophysical investigation

Subsurface investigation to support ground characterisation.

Geohazard assessment

Landslides, erosion and rockfall hazard at settlement scale.

Selected projects

Jhiku Khola Watershed, Panchkhal Valley

Groundwater potential and spring assessment

Dissertation research mapping where groundwater is most likely to occur in the watershed.

  • Groundwater potential zonation using AHP across eight thematic layers in ArcGIS
  • Validation against a field spring inventory
Gurbhakott (Surkhet) and Dhunibesi (Dhading) Municipalities

Geohazard field assessment of settlements

Field-based assessment and reporting for more than 25 settlements.

  • Debris slides, gully erosion and rockfall documented per settlement
  • Priority ranking matrices to show which settlements need attention first
  • Final reports delivered in Excel and PDF
Surkhet District

Landslide susceptibility data extraction

Extracted district-level landslide susceptibility data using Google Earth Engine for use in GIS analysis.
