Amaravati's climate in the 2050s

2041-2060 compared with 1991-2020, moderate emissions

By the 2050s, Amaravati's climate will still be more like its own today than any other large city's. The nearest other is Chennai (India).

Under high emissions, Amaravati would stay nearest its own climate today.

Its own climate today is 3.1 σ away. How close the match is: 7.2 σ to the climate of Chennai today, where under 2 is close and over 4 is no match (Mahony et al. 2017). 3 of 3 climate model runs name the same city. Seasonal temperature and rain are compared, not extremes, city heat or the sea.

Flood depth is read in a single 1 km cell at the city's centre, in today's climate. Other parts of the city can still flood. The country page names the deepest point near a coastal city in 2080, so its figure can be higher. See how deep a river flood reaches around Amaravati on the live map
