What is the News?<\/b><\/h2>\n

A study was conducted in Western Ghats to understand the <\/span>variations of rainfall patterns during the <\/span>Little Ice Age.<\/span><\/p>\n

What is the Little Ice Age?<\/b><\/h2>\n

The Little Ice Age was a period of cooler climate conditions that occurred roughly <\/span>between CE 1671-1942.<\/span><\/p>\n

What is the purpose of the study?<\/b><\/h2>\n

The Western Ghats region in India experiences two main monsoons: the southwest summer monsoon (SWM) from June to September and the northeast winter monsoon (NEM) from October to December.<\/span><\/p>\n

The study aims to understand how vegetation and climate changed in Western Ghats region influenced by both monsoons during the last millennium.<\/span><\/p>\n

What are the key findings of the study?<\/b><\/h2>\n

The study has found the presence of moist conditions during the Little Ice Age <\/span>(LIA) in the Western Ghats.This is likely due to increased northeast winter monsoon (NEM) influence.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

These findings indicate that the Little<\/span> Ice Age (LIA) period was also wet (moist) and was not uniformly cold and dry.<\/span><\/p>\n

Factors Influencing Climate Change: <\/b>The study suggested several factors that may have contributed to this climate change and increased southwest summer monsoon (SWM).<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2013 These factors include: northward movement of the Inter Tropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ), positive temperature anomalies, increased sunspot numbers and high solar activity.<\/span><\/p>\n

Weakest Phase of Indian Summer Monsoon Explained: <\/b>The study attributed the weakest phase of the Indian Summer Monsoon (ISM) across the Indian subcontinent during the LIA to the southward shift of the ITCZ.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
