Abstract
We, in the monsoonal regions of the world are concerned about the variation of rainfall in space and time and a major aim of monsoon meteorology is to predict these variations. Understanding the basic system responsible for the monsoon and the factors that lead to its variation is a prerequisite for developing models to generate these predictions. In this article, I discuss the basic system responsible for the monsoon - the wind and the rains.
