A new study of sediment layers at Bandhavgarh National Park reveals how climate fluctuations over millennia influenced human settlements and architectural marvels.

Researchers combine weather forecasts, satellite soil moisture data, and a computer simulation for efficient irrigation water management at district and sub-district scales.

Researchers at the University of Aizu, Japan, and Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology, Pune, have proposed some improvements to existing monsoon-predicting models that could help precise prediction of the monsoon rains. An accurate monsoon forecast can help farmers plan agricultural activities and have early warning systems in place to prevent the loss of life and property by floods.
