Abstract

Study of data and nature of advance of monsoon into different parts is an interesting and challenging topic, since it is closely linked to success or failure of crops in India. In this study, dates of onset of monsoon for the period 1921-86 at 15 climatologically important stations were analysed. Attempt was also made to find out possible association between dates of onset and the southwest monsoon rainfall.

 

Late or early onset of monsoon, in general, was not found to provide any clue about the subsequent behavior of monsoon or the total rainfall during the season.
