The Multiscale Global Monsoon System is the 4th and most up-to-date
edition of the global monsoon book series produced by a group of
leading international experts invited by the World Meteorological
Organization's Working Group on Tropical Meteorology Research. The
contents reflect the state of the knowledge of all scales of
monsoon in the world's monsoon regions. It includes 31 chapters in
five parts: Regional Monsoons, Extreme Weather, Intraseasonal
Variations, Climate Change, and Field Experiments.
This book is the third edition of a book series on the state of the
science of monsoon research and forecasting. The series is updated
approximately every five years based on the invited reviews of the
World Meteorological Organization's International Workshop on
Monsoons (IWM). The third edition is an outgrowth of the reviews
initially presented in late 2013 at IWM-V, with manuscripts revised
and updated through 2015 and early 2016. As in previous editions,
the book builds on the concept that the monsoon in various parts of
the globe can be viewed as components of an integrated global
monsoon system, while also emphasizing that significant
region-specific characteristics are present in individual monsoon
regions. In addition to the regional monsoons, the current volume
covers contemporary topics with emphasis on intraseasonal
oscillations, extreme weather, decadal variability, climate change,
and summary of recent field experiments including CINDY/DYNAMO in
the Indian Ocean and the Asian Monsoon Years.World Scientific
Series on Asia-Pacific Weather and Climate is indexed in SCOPUS.
