Abstract/Description: | Climate change due to increasing concentrations of green house gases in the atmosphere since the pre-industrial times has emerged as a serious global environmental issue and poses a threat and challenge to mankind. The Fourth Assessment report of Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (2007) concluded that ‘there is high confidence that recent regional changes in temperature have had discernible impacts on many physical and biological systems’. The changes in the composition of atmosphere in terms of greenhouse gases, aerosols influence the properties of solar radiation and alter the energy balance of the climate system. Now it is evident from various studies that the human activities are contributing significantly for the change in climate compared to natural variability in climate. General circulation models predict temperature rises of 1.4- 5.8°C by 2100, associated with carbon dioxide increases to 540-970 parts per million. The atmospheric concentration of carbon dioxide- the most important anthropogenic greenhouse gas increasing at alarming rates (1.9 ppm per year) in recent years than the natural range concentration growth rate. This could be due to enhanced usage of fossil fuel and changed land use pattern to some extent. |
