Climate Change and Urban Heat Islands in India: A Review Across Nine Urban Agglomerations
Abstract: Since 1901, anthropogenic climate change has raised India's mean surface temperatures by about 0.9°C, compounding warming. Rapid urbanization creates persistent Urban Heat Islands (UHIs), making cities dangerously hotter than rural areas. A combination of these forces presents acute thermal hazards to hundreds of millions of urban dwellers. The paper discusses the emergence and intensification of UHI in nine large Indian cities (Delhi-NCR, Ahmedabad, Chennai, Hyderabad, Kolkata, Pune, Bengaluru, Mumbai, and …

Heat Stress Mitigation in Resource-Constrained Dairy Farming Systems: Practical Strategies for Sustainable Development
Abstract: Heat stress poses a critical threat to dairy production, particularly in resource-constrained systems prevalent across tropical and subtropical regions. Elevated ambient temperatures, compounded by high humidity, directly impair feed intake, milk yield, reproductive efficiency, and overall animal welfare. In low-resource settings, conventional cooling technologies such as automated fans, sprinklers, and climate-controlled housing remain economically inaccessible. Therefore, cost-effective, locally adaptable, and sustainable solutions are essential for maintaining productivity and animal health. …
