Introduction Earth’s climate system is a complex interaction of various atmospheric, oceanic, and terrestrial processes. Among the most influential natural climatic phenomena that disrupt this balance are El Niño and La Niña, collectively known as the El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO). These irregular periodic variations in sea surface temperatures (SSTs) and wind patterns in the central…
Introduction Tropical cyclones are powerful weather systems that develop over warm oceanic waters and significantly impact coastal and inland regions. These storms originate in tropical and subtropical regions, driven by oceanic and atmospheric conditions. However, as soon as they make landfall, they begin to weaken and eventually dissipate. This article explores the reasons behind the…
Tropical cyclones are one of the most powerful and destructive natural phenomena on Earth. These intense low-pressure systems are capable of causing widespread damage, with their impact often extending to large coastal areas and even affecting inland regions. Understanding their origin, structure, and associated weather is crucial for disaster preparedness and mitigation. This article will…
Weather forecasting plays a crucial role in shaping the agricultural, economic, and infrastructural landscape of a region. In Uttar Pradesh, which is one of the most agriculturally significant states in India, accurate weather forecasting is indispensable for ensuring the safety of crops, managing water resources, and preparing for extreme weather events. The Meteorological Centre, Lucknow…
The phenomenon of El Niño, a climatic event characterized by the warming of sea surface temperatures in the central and eastern Pacific Ocean, has a profound influence on global weather patterns, particularly in regions like India. In India, the South-West Monsoon, which is crucial for agriculture, is often disrupted by El Niño. This disruption leads…
