Beschreibung
This book focuses on the climate dynamics of India, assessing climate impacts in modern times and delving into climate, not only at shorter scales but also at longer ones, drawing on records of climatic conditions through various proxies.
This book presents structured case studies from diverse geological archives, and consists of data generated across various environments, such as glacial, fluvial, marine, and terrestrial, to reconstruct the paleoclimate and provide context for evaluating today’s climate in relation to the tropics. The Indian subcontinent lies within the tropics, which play an essential role in the dynamic process of global climate change and are often considered a cause or trigger of it. This book also sheds light on the impacts of climate change on the archaeological heritage, lightning, tourism, pollution, and geothermal energy. The data and insights provided in this book offer researchers in both climate science and geology important context and practical data for understanding past climate dynamics.
