A.

V. Koeppen

B.

Garrett Hardin

C.

E. Ostrom

D.

Sunita Narain

Correct option is A

The correct answer is: (A). V. Koeppen
The empirical climate classification scheme, known as the Koeppen Climate Classification System, was developed by Wladimir Koeppen, a Russian-German climatologist, in the early 20th century. This system classifies the world's climates based on temperature and precipitation patterns, dividing them into several climate zones, such as tropical, arid, temperate, and polar.

The other options are not associated with climate classification:
  •  Garrett Hardin is known for his work in the field of ecology and the Tragedy of the Commons.
  •  E. Ostrom is renowned for her work on governance and common-pool resources.
  •  Sunita Narain is an environmentalist and director of the Centre for Science and Environment (CSE) in India, but she is not linked to the development of climate classification systems.
