Indo-Gangetic plains to see varied rain trends in future

The study by the centre under the department of science and technology, which projected the behaviour of rainfall patterns across the Indo-Gangetic Plains, shows that in the period spanning 2041-60, the mean monsoon rainfall recoded in June and July will reduce by around 40-70% compared with the average between 1986 and 2005.

The projections also show glaring alterations in pre- and post-monsoon rainfall trends. In the pre-monsoon season, spanning March to May, rainfall is expected to reduce by around 10-20%, the projections show. The post-monsoon season, however, is likely to increase drastically. There is expected to be an increase of around 80-170% in the October-December period by 2080-99.
