Development of future climate projections for Indian Sundarbans and the Arkavathy river basin
March 7, 2022
| Climate Change
The objective of the proposed study is to understand and assess the present and future climate variability over Indian Sundarbans and the Arkavathy River Basin, with a focus on past and future temperature extremes in a changing climate. This necessitates the use of climate modelling to analyse expected changes in temperature, precipitation, and sea levels in the study area. The extent of effort in this regard is outlined below. Scope of work 1. Baseline assessment over Indian Sundarbans and the Arkavathy River Basin;

The objective of this study is to carry out comprehensive study of water bodies. This will include proper storm water evacuation up to creek area and to suggest possible diversion of rivers and other streams of the region including other infrastructural changes.
Climate Finance Study for India
August 10, 2021
| Climate Change
The objective of the project is to support the Climate Change Finance Unit, Economic Division, DEA under the Ministry of Finance for its climate finance discourse at international representations. It is realized that the current definition of climate finance is not conducive to supporting India with its climate goals and the international climate finance is coming much shorter than required.
Selected brick kilns in Palwal District, Haryana
June 16, 2021
| Climate Change
Building infrastructure in India is estimated to grow at a rate of 6.6% per year between 2005 and 2030. The building stock is expected to multiply five times during this period, resulting in a continuous increase in demand for brick and other building materials. With rapid growth of brick production, the environmental aspects of brick making have become a serious concern that requires immediate action to control the emission.
