ABSTRACT:
The climate change on earth is increasing day by day due to global warming. India is prone to various types of climate change vulnerabilities as a region of geographical diversities. The human interventions in the protected areas of Western Ghats of India increased the burden of geological structure leads to natural calamities. In this background, a review study was conducted regarding the cause of recent climate change hazards occurred in the Western Ghats of India.
