What are the factors influencing the rise in temperatures in large parts of India according to IMD
IMD predicts further increase in temperatures in India due to brutal heat in several regions.
According to the India Meteorological Department (IMD), several factors influence the rise in temperatures in large parts of India:
- Geographical Location: India's geographical location near the equator makes it prone to receiving direct sunlight, leading to high temperatures.
- Urbanization: Rapid urbanization and the heat island effect in cities can contribute to increased temperatures.
- Deforestation: Loss of green cover and deforestation can reduce shading and cooling effects, leading to higher temperatures.
- Global Warming: Climate change and global warming patterns are also contributing to the overall rise in temperatures across India.
- Monsoon Variability: Variations in the monsoon patterns can impact temperatures in different regions of the country.
