description Climate change impacts on mountains have increased over the past few decades, with evident and significant consequences for people and ecosystems. This study investigates the long-term trend in rainfall and temperature (1951-2022) over Nubra Valley, Ladakh, India employing the Innovative Trend Analysis (ITA) using IMD gridded (0.25 x 0.25) rainfall and (1.0 x 1.0) temperature data. The results of ITA indicate no trend in May for 70% of areas, in November in south-western part, and in December in northern parts of the valley. A notable trend only in November in selected areas of central and northern part of the valley. Most of the months showed a rising pattern in rainfall. The tmin trend reveals an increasing trend in months, except for no trend in January and October in the southern region; there is a significant decreasing trend in February and July in the southern region. The tmax trend even shows an increasing trend, excluding June, displaying a significant decreasing trend. January and October in the eastern region and November in the western show no trend. The results are indicative of a rising rainfall and temperature trend in the Nubra Valley.
