Question raised in Rajya Sabha on Impact of Global Warming and Climate Change on Rainfall Pattern, 11/08/2016. Government has undertaken many research studies to analyze the impact of global warming and climate change on rainfall pattern in India. Analysis of observed temperature data suggests that during the past 115 years, global mean surface air temperature has increased by 0.70C. There are many consequences due to the global warming, like rising sea level, melting of sea ice and snow cover and increasing frequency of extreme weather events like heavy rainfall events and heat waves.
