Echoes of thunder, petals of rain
The Daily Guardian
|June 07, 2025
Curiosity may arise in one's mind, what is this monsoon, after all?
The word monsoon has been derived from an Arabic word "mausim" which literally means season. It can be defined as a complete replacement of the dry hot air by the equatorial maritime air up to an altitude of three to five kms. over the land and water surface. In layman's language monsoon is a season of rain.
The phenomenon of the monsoon is continuing since time immemorial. By and large this phenomenon is confined to tropical lands lying between 20° N and 20° S. Monsoon is attached to such an atmospheric circulation which reverses its flow seasonally. If this criterion of seasonal reversal is applied strictly, then only a few regions of the world have monsoon wind systems. It is in Asia that monsoonal circulation is found in the ideal form. U.S.A., Northern Australia, West Africa also has monsoon-like experiences.
