  • Abstract:
  • Extreme weather events and climate change pose a severe danger to socioeconomic and livelihood stability. The Cauvery delta zone (CDZ) was chosen for this study to explore present and future trends in climate variability. Thanjavur, Thiruvarur, Pudukottai, Cuddalore, Ariyalur, Tiruchirappalli and Nagapattinam are the Cauvery delta region of Tamil Nadu's seven major districts. The baseline data sets were provided by the Indian Meteorological Agency (IMD). Using IPCC AR5 RCP4.5 and RCP8.5 scenarios, the maximum and minimum temperatures, as well as precipitation, were investigated. According to the results, the minimum temperature might increase to 2.8 to 4.5oC while the maximum temperature could rise to 1.1 to 3.6oC. Additionally, it was determined that by the turn of the century, rainfall would increase by 15-16%.
