We also analyzed trends in rainfall, relative humidity, wind speed, and sunshine duration in the context of climate change. Decreasing trends in E<sub>pan </sub>were witnessed over Jaisalmer in the months of January, June, October and November in the range of -2.04 to -4.1 mm/year. Significant rainfall decreases were witnessed in the three crucial months of monsoon season, i.e., July, August and September, in range of -0.23 to -1.25 mm/year. Increasing trends in mean temperature were witnessed corresponding to annual and monthly (January, April, September, October and November) time scales in the range of 0.03 to 0.07 °C/year. The simultaneous E<sub>pan </sub>decrease and temperature rise at Jaisalmer confirmed the existence of evaporation paradox in the months of winter and post-monsoon seasons, which may be due to decreases in wind speed and bright sunshine hours. The increase in temperature along with decreases in E<sub>pan</sub>, rainfall, sunshine duration, and wind speed over Jaisalmer may have far reaching consequences for the fragile ecosystem of the Thar Desert.</p> </div> <p> </p> </p></abstract><publication_date><month>06</month><day>03</day><year>2014</year></publication_date><pages><first_page>3</first_page><last_page>11</last_page></pages><publisher_item><identifier id_type="pii">gnest_01356</identifier></publisher_item><doi_data><doi>10.30955/gnj.001356</doi><timestamp>1713941103</timestamp><resource>https://journal.gnest.org/publication/gnest_01356</resource></doi_data></journal_article></journal></body></doi_batch> </div>
