Thus, agriculture by all means is the backbone of the Indian economy.

In addition to this the changes in such circulation in the Indian sub-continent also affects the interaction between land, air and sea which is the most important and the binding factor between Asia and the Indian Ocean.Climate change in different regions has been occurring also because of vast changes in land use.

The monsoon climate results in high annual rainfall totals exceeding 1.5 m (5 ft) in many places. Note scale changes at 1,000 years ago.Rachel Mackelprang, Scott R.

Jansson, Neslihan TaşPermanently frozen soil, or permafrost, covers a large portion of the Earth's terrestrial surface and represents a unique environment for cold-adapted microorganisms.

Wednesday, Aug 12, 2020 | Last Update : 09:41 PM ISTThe monsoon is the most important season in India and maximum amount of rainfall is spread across the months of June, July, August and September. Instead of the regular pattern, there are now phases of not enough rainfall followed by intense rain; there is drought and flood.As a developing country, India has historically contributed fewer greenhouse gas emissions than many developed nations; nevertheless India is now suffering the consequences.

NH land monsoon rainfall as a whole declined from 1950 to 1980 and rebounded after the 1980s, due to the competing influences of internal climate variability and radiative forcing from GHGs and aerosol forcing (high confidence); however, it remains a … It also affects the neighbouring countries in the continent which further makes it an important feature of the global weather system.
Continued global warming and urbanization over the past century has already caused a significant rise in the intensity and frequency of extreme rainfall events in all monsoon regions (high confidence).
