The monograph focuses on agricultural meteorology and climate
change and its impacts on different crops. Comprising of chapters
from experts, the book discusses and provides first-hand
information to the long term shifts in weather patterns and
temperature impacting soil, water and crops. Each chapter focuses
in detail on the impact of plant- water – soil nexus and climate
change on agriculture and food security. Covering the basic
concepts about the temperature, pressure and humidity correlation
with the increased demands of food, the book explores in detail the
impact of adverse climatic conditions like drought, floods,
increasing levels of carbon dioxide emissions and other
simultaneous effects like soil fertility depletion on the cropping
systems and overall crop productivity. The book touches the
challenges of climate change, adaptive methods, mitigation
strategies, with careful explanation of governance, plans and
policies required to provide guidelines to stake holders so they
can best prepare for the negative climate change impacts. While
touching the agricultural challenges faced globally due to climate
change, the book serves as a reference book for students,
researchers and policy makers, involved in horticulture,
agriculture and environmental sciences and climate change.
