Summary[edit]

Description
English: In India, Changes in temperature and rainfall can impact the degree of forest fragmentation and loss of habitat, which has led to increasing conflicts between humans and Asian elephants. Elephants can raid crops, and cause property damage, injuries and deaths to humans.

The Asian Nature Conservation Foundation (ANCF) is collaborating with the Centre of Ecological Sciences (CES) at the Indian Institute of Science to determine potential relationships between precipitation, change in forestry, and human-elephant conflict using NASA’s rainfall data. Understanding these relationships could help local authorities to devise management action plans to mitigate this hazard in districts of southwest India.
