Dr. Milind Mujumdar is a Senior Scientist at the Centre for Climate Change Research (CCCR), Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology, Pune. He is currently engaged in the field scale soil moisture monitoring using Cosmos Ray Soil-Moisture Monitoring System (COSMOS) and wireless network of various surface hydro-meteorological sensors to study the soil water dynamics. He has carried out diagnostic and modelling studies to understand the Asian monsoon variability and its response to warming climate. He completed his education up to M.Sc. (Mathematics) from Khandwa (M.P.). He obtained his M.Phil. with focus on “Math- ematical Modelling” during 1989 and Ph.D. on studies related to “Climate Modelling” during 2002, from the University of Pune. He has published more than 30 research articles in national and international journals. He is also associated with Universities and Institutes for guiding M.Sc./M.Tech. and Ph.D. students. During his research career, he had scientific visits to the University of Tokyo, Hokkaido University, Nagoya University Japan; University of Hawaii, USA; University of Reading and European Centre for Medium Range Weather Forecast (ECMWF), UK; CSIRO (Melbourne, Australia); University of Cape Town (South Africa).Centre for Climate Change Research Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology (IITM-MoES) Pune, India.

Assessment of Climate Change over the Indian Region: A Report of the Ministry of Earth Sciences (MoES), Government of India
This open access book discusses the impact of human-induced global climate change on the Indian subcontinent and regional monsoon, the adjoining Indian Ocean and the Himalayas. It also examines the regional climate change projections based on the climate models used by the IPCC Fifth Assessment Report (AR5) and national climate change modeling studies using the IITM Earth System Model (ESM) and CORDEX South Asia datasets. The IPCC assessment reports, published every 6–7 years, provide important reference material for major policy decisions on climate change, adaptation, and mitigation. While the IPCC assessment reports largely provide a global perspective on climate change, they offer limited information on the regional aspects of climate change. Regional climate change effects over the Indian subcontinent, especially relating to the Indian monsoon, are unique to the region, and in particular, the climate in this region is shaped by the Himalayas, Western Ghats, the Tibetan Plateau, the Indian Ocean, Arabian Sea, and Bay of Bengal. Climatic variations in this region are influenced by (a) regional-scale interactions between the atmosphere, ocean, land surface, cryosphere and biosphere on different time scales, (b) remote effects from natural phenomena such as the El Nino / Southern Oscillation, North Atlantic Oscillation, Indian Ocean Dipole, and Madden Julian Oscillation, and (c) human-induced climate change. This book presents policy-relevant information based on robust scientific analysis and assessments of the observed and projected future climate change over the Indian region.
