India, Sept. 10 -- The Government of India has issued a release:
A new study that measured magnetic minerals accumulated in sediments below the Bakhira Lake in Sant Kabir Nagar over 25000 years helped track past changes in climate and how they have influenced rainfall, weathering, sediment transport and lake processes in northern India.
It can pave way for improved climate models to predict future monsoon behaviour and can help better water resource management in the Central Ganga Plain (CGP) of which the Bakhira Lake is a part.
The CGP is one of the most important regions influenced by the Indian Summer Monsoon and is critical in terms of agricultural practices.
Long-term, high-resolution palaeoclimate records from the CGP region are s...
