Big Data in Climate Change

Dr. Parul Agarwal, Dr. Siddhartha Sankar Biswas

Abstract :

 Big Data often associated with E-Commerce and social media sites amuses us when associated with “Climate Change”. Climate Change has its adverse effects on every part of the world. Rainfall in dry regions, melting of glaciers resulting in rise of sea level, global warming, and deforestation are some of the alarming implications of it. These affects are huge, controversial, challenging yet important. What appears as one of the solutions is Big Data. Big Data comes as a solution in not just providing effective storage of data collected pertaining to disasters or its visualizations but has a potential of predictions and analysis as to how fast and where lie the sources of effect. In addition, big data and its analytical techniques can provide untapped opportunities and solutions to diversify our understanding and accelerate decision making which shall be vital to control the “Climate Change”. The main focus of this paper is to understand the various problems in using big data itself and its solutions by analyzing the methods and challenges that need to be addressed to make Big Data as a promising answer to the universal threat: Climate Change. The need of the hour is to save the Earth and mankind.
