Anthropogenic climate change worsened recent declines in freshwater availability in India
Despite formidable evidence of the role of anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions in the Earth’s climate system, detection of anthropogenic climate change in Indian freshwater resources remains uncertain. This study investigated the link between the recent (1980–2020) decline in freshwater availability and anthropogenic climate change using formal detection and attribution analysis. Water availability, defined as the difference between precipitat…
High risk from coincidence of extremes in particulate matter and heat in India
Exposure to high levels of air pollution and extreme heat stress has been individually linked to significant health and economic problems in India. However, not much is known about the threats resulting from the co-occurrence of these hazards, which have common meteorological drivers. In this study, we perform a country-wide joint risk analysis at the district level, examining the risks of chronic exposure to the joint extremes of particulate mat…
On the role of climate change in the 2018 flooding event in Kerala
The extreme precipitation during August 2018 in Kerala, India was catastrophic, triggering one of the worst floods in history. There is growing evidence of human-induced climate change in driving hydroclimatic extremes across the globe. However, whether and to what degree the 2018 flooding event in Kerala was influenced by climate change has yet to be fully understood. To this end, we present the first formal attribution analysis of the event, us…

On the role of rainfall deficits and cropping choices in loss of agricultural yield in Marathwada, India
Crop loss and ensuing social crises can be detrimental for the agriculture-driven economy of India. Though some studies identify country-wide increasing temperatures as the dominant factor for crop loss, the agro-climatic diversity within the country necessitates an understanding of the influence of climate variability on yields at regional scales. We report a complex interplay among rainfall, temperature and cropping choices, with a focus on the…
