The Impact of Leadership and Organizational Culture on Teachers’ Job Satisfaction in Schools under Samdrupjongkhar Dzongkhag
Extensive research has explored the connection between leadership and organizational culture. However, the specific impact of school principals\u27 leadership styles on student achievement, teacher satisfaction, and overall school climate has been under-researched. This study aims to investigate the organizational culture, teacher job satisfaction, and the development of a positive and supportive school culture in various schools in Bhutan, especially Samdrup Jongkhar Dzongkhag. The sample size for this study consisted of 116 school teachers, of whom 90 were currently working in schools in Samdrup Jongkhar. These teachers were asked about their principals’ leadership style and practices, organizational culture in the school, and job satisfaction. It was found that all the teachers agreed on having a positive work culture in their respective schools. Of the 116 teachers, 95 were also satisfied with their job; however, eight were not, and the remaining 13 remained neutral. It can be noted that those who responded positively about their leaders and the organizational culture were the teachers who were satisfied with their job

A comparative study of daytime-based methane emission from two wetlands of Nepal Himalaya
Natural wetlands constitute one of the major sources of methane emission to the atmosphere. Data on methane emission from wetlands on southern slopes of the Himalaya (SSH) have not been reported so far. Such data are very valuable for filling the gap and generating the whole emission patterns at regional or even global scale. We selected two wetlands at different altitudinal locations in Nepal, i.e. Beeshazar Lake (286 m a.s.l.) and Dhaap Lake (2089 m a.s.l.), to monitor the daytime methane emissions in monsoon season and dry season separately. Daytime methane emission varied between monsoon and dry seasons and also across different plant communities. The daytime methane emission variations were stronger in dry season than in monsoon season. The source/sink strengths of the two selected plant communities in each wetland were significantly different, presenting the strong spatial variation of methane emission within wetland. The methane emissions recorded in monsoon season were significantly higher (7.74 +/- 6.49 mg CH4 m(-2) h(-1) and 1.00 +/- 1.23 mg CH4 m(-2) h(-1) in low and high altitude wetlands, respectively) than those in dry season (1.84 +/- 4.57 mg CH4 m(-2) h(-1) and 0.27 +/- 0.71 mg CH4 m(-2) h(-1) in low and high altitude wetlands, respectively). Methane emissions from the low altitude wetland were significantly higher than those from the high altitude wetland in both of the seasons. Plant community height, standing water depth and soil temperature correlated to the methane emission from wetlands in this region. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved
