Introduction:
Introduction:The State of Kerala, is a tiny strip of land having an area of 38.86 lakh ha (1.185% of the national land area), situated west of Western Ghats. It is located in the humid tropics between the latitudes of 8°18’ and 12° 48’N and longitudes of 74°28’ and 77°37’E. The State of Kerala, named as “Gods own country” and the “Gateway of monsoon in India” is one of the unique regions in the humid tropical monsoon climates that enjoys high solar radiation and warm temperature round the year.The State has rich bio-diversity and tropical rain forests and is spread in 13 agro-ecological zones under the humid tropics. IPCC defines climate change as a change in the state of the climate that can be identified (e.g., using statistical tests) by changes in the mean and/or variability of its properties, and that persists for an extended period, typically decades or longer. It refers to any change in climate over time, whether due to natural variability or as a result of human activity.The climate change may be decline in rainfall, wetlands, land and ocean biodiversity, increase in temperature and sea level, floods and droughts, landslides, groundwater depletion and saline water intrusion, decline in forest area, frequent forest fires, unusual rains and hailstorms. It is believed that almost all the crops are likely to be under threat due to climate change/variability in the ensuing decades under the Humid Tropics.
