The analysis of changes in the moisture regions over the past hundred years indicate a net effect of drier all India moisture conditions in the recent decades.
India has so far documented over 91,200 species of animals and 45,500 species of plants in its 10 biogeographic regions. The varied edaphic, climatic and topographic conditions and years of geological stability have resulted in a wide range of ecosystems and habitats such as forests, grasslands, wetlands, deserts, and coastal and marine ecosystem.
Global warming, progressive gradual rise of the earth’s surface temperature, is at present being held responsible for changes in global climate patterns. Increase in atmospheric temperature affects various aspects of global hydrological cycle. As a result, we can expect changes in rainfall, evaporation and runoff which are projected to cause significant impacts on crops, livestock, fisheries, in...
Historical societal adaptations to climate fluctuations may provide insights into potential responses of modern societies to future climate change that has a bearing on water resources, food production and management of natural systems.
