Climate change brings variation in monsoon system, say climatologists
Climatologists have said that a variation has occurred on the monsoon system also due to climate change from global warming. They reasoned that the monsoon this year withdrew from the country 10 days later compared to the previous years.
Climatologist Manjit Dhakal considers the delayed withdrawal of the monsoon as an alteration in the monsoon pattern. According to him, this trend can be considered as an impact of climate change.
Similarly, the relentless rain on September 27 and 28, he assessed, is also due to the effect of climate change. However, climatologist Dhakal has pointed out the need of carrying out research on such climate-related hazards.
He suggested implementation of the concept of climate-friendly development for sustainable development. "It has become inevitable to give priority to climate adaptation programs," he said, quoting the report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change.
Meteorologist Bishnu Ghimire also indicated the need of research to reach a conclusion whether or not the delayed withdrawal of the monsoon system is due to the effects of climate change. His understanding is also that there is an alteration in the monsoon pattern due to the climate change impact.
