Blows from the South and Southwest, and across the Arabian Sea, the Bay of Bengal, and apart of the Indian Ocean. As the warm air over India rise, the cooler air over the water flows to equalize the air pressure. Crossing the water, the wind picks up moisture causing heavy rainfall. The South Asia Water Initiative (SAWI) is designed to support countries enhance the basin and water resources knowledge base, strengthen water institutions, and support investments that lead to sustainable, fair and inclusive development. Planning for water resources development and climate adaptation both require However, prior South Asian climate change studies have: i) evaluated climate resources, with a focus on water quantity and quality. A team of authors water resources experts completed an extensive review, analysis and synthesis of the relevant scientific literature related to U.S. Water resources. Below, some of the main findings from the SAP 4.3 Water Resources These series of South Asia Water Initiative reports were commissioned to help support greater understanding of these change including ways in which better water resources management can Agriculture in South Asia is vulnerable to climate change.

South Asian countries already face extreme climate-induced Executive Summary. As population growth and urbanization rates in Asia rise rapidly, stress on the region s water resources is intensifying. Climate change is expected to worsen the situation significantly. Experts agree that reduced access to freshwater will lead to a cascading set of consequences, including impaired food production,
