Abstract:
The dynamics and mechanism of the monsoon is one of the most spectacular global phenomena of nature. Climate change could influence monsoon dynamics, cause poor summer precipitation, a delay in the start of monsoon season and longer breaks between the rainy periods. A number of factors either regular or irregular such as Tibetan anticyclone over Himalayas, higher pressure over Indian ocean (IOHP), southern oscillation index (SOI), El Nino / southern oscillation (ESO), northward shifting of westerly sub-tropical Jet (STJ), tropical easterly jet (TEJ) etc. control the monsoon and developed a substantial climatic impact in the region.
These features can be applied for comparative study of heavy and light monsoon years over Pakistan. In addition, westerly systems passing through northern Pakistan and monsoon current can be evaluated in the light of reported research work.
The present paper will discussed the impact of monsoon from the normal or even slight deviations in the light of country economics, agricultural production, water availability, hydroelectric power generation, etc. |
