Climate change may lead to more precipitation and more intense floods. A new study shows that to understand the details of this relationship, it is important to distinguish between different types of rainfall and flood events — namely, between short-term events that occur on a time scale of hours, and longer-term events that last several.
Jaipur, Rajasthan: A significant change in weather over the past few days brought much-needed relief from the heat across large parts of Rajasthan, as rain and hailstorms lashed several districts, lowering temperatures and providing respite from the ongoing warm conditions.

Jalandhar: Climate change is not a distant threat. It is reshaping lives and livelihoods today, especially for those who depend on climate-sensitive sectors like agriculture. Within this vulnerable sector, women farmers bear the heaviest burden. Rising temperatures, unpredictable rainfall, and more frequent extreme weather events directly threaten crop yields, reduce incomes, and increase the workload.
Coastal erosion is an increasingly visible consequence of climate change in India, threatening livelihoods, infrastructure, and ecosystems along the country’s 7,500-kilometer coastline. Rising sea levels, stronger storm surges, and changing rainfall patterns exacerbate the natural process of shoreline retreat, impacting coastal towns and villages in states like West Bengal, Odisha, Maharashtra, and Tamil Nadu.
