Anand
India
Anand is projected to face a future where extreme heat and dangerous heat extremes become prevalent, significantly affecting public health. Additionally, the city will likely experience heavy rainfall events and frequent heavy precipitation, leading to flooding risks and infrastructural issues. Prolonged drought conditions are forecasted, impacting water availability for both agriculture and drinking. Furthermore, there is an elevated risk of high arbovirus transmission, potentially increasing malaria prevalence. These climate hazards and vulnerabilities indicate a pressing need for comprehensive adaptation measures to enhance climate resilience.
Hazard Outlook
How will Anand's projected climate hazards compare to other cities under a 3.0°C future warming scenario?
Heavy Rainfall Days
With 15 days of heavy rainfall expected, Anand ranks among the highest of all cities for extreme precipitation events.
Maximum Temperature
Anand's projected maximum temperature of 11.4°C is among the highest of all cities globally under a 3.0°C warming scenario.
Longest Heatwave
Anand may experience heatwaves lasting up to 6 days, among the highest of all other cities.
Maximum Rainfall
Anand's projected maximum rainfall of 16 mm is among the highest of all cities globally.
Elevation
At 40 m elevation, Anand faces elevated risk from coastal flooding and sea level rise.
Exposure Summary
Adaptation Priorities
Anand faces high exposure to heavy rain, max temp, heatwave, max rain and elevated exposure to elevation. These areas may warrant priority attention in adaptation planning.
