उत्तर

Climate change warms the atmosphere, which can hold more moisture. This intensifies the water cycle: some areas receive heavier rains, such as intensified monsoons, while others suffer droughts. Melting glaciers add water to rivers and raise sea levels, threatening coastal cities; heavy runoff erodes soil and reduces groundwater recharge.
