Abstract:
Land use and Land cover changes modify land surface characteristics and indirectly climatic process. Deforestation and conversion of forests to other type of land use, reduction in pasture land and fallow lands change surface heat budget and water budget. The study area has rich forests and about sixty percent of forest area is found and mostly distributed on the hilly region. But in the recent years the extent of forest cover is decreasing and also degrading of floral species. There are also changes in other categories of land use like pasture land, cultivable waste and other fallow lands. The present study is an attempt to analyze the population growth and to find out the land use changes and to assess the impact of these changes on rainfall distribution.
