News 15 Apr 2021 | Source: LMU Munich - Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München Researchers predict more extremely wet years in the future If global warming continues unchecked, summer monsoon rainfall in India will become stronger and more erratic. This is the central finding of an analysis by a team of German researchers that compared more than 30 state-of-the-art climate models from all around the world. The study predicts more extremely wet years in the future – with potentially grave consequences for more than one billion people’s well-being, economy, food systems and agricult...

A new study finds that summer monsoon rainfall in India will become stronger and more erratic, posing a threat to the region’s agriculture and economy.

Climate change is making Indian monsoon season chaotic ANI | Updated: Apr 14, 2021 19:18 IST New Delhi [India], April 14 (ANI): A recent analysis by a team of German researchers that compared more than 30 state-of-the-art climate models from all around the world found that if global warming continues unchecked, summer monsoon rainfall in India will become stronger and more erratic in the coming years. Since 1980 greenhouse gas-induced warming has become the deciding driver for more chaotic monsoon seasons. The study published in the journal Earth System D...

3 Min Read CHENNAI, India (Thomson Reuters Foundation) - Indian monsoons are likely to become stronger and more erratic if global warming continues unchecked, threatening farming and incomes across the region, researchers said on Wednesday. Monsoon rains will likely increase by about 5% for every degree Celsius of warming, found the study of more than 30 state-of-the-art climate models from around the world, published in the journal Earth System Dynamics. “What is really on the line is the socio-economic well-being of the Indian subcontinent,” said co-author Anders Levermann, a climate sc...

Climate change risk to icy East Antarctica Is Antarctica really safe from climate change? A new study suggests even the icy east of the frozen continent could be at risk, with consequences for global sea levels. Scientists say the changes could be irreversible. While the Arctic is melting twice as fast as the rest of the planet, the icy regions around the south pole were long considered immune to climate change. But melting glaciers on the Antarctic Peninsula in recent years sparked doubts in the scientific community about just how stable the western region of Antarctica really is. Only the...
