Article Synopsis
- The study examines the declining trend in Indian summer monsoon precipitation (ISMP) during the late 20th century, focusing on the impact of increased sulfate aerosols in South Asia.
- Using advanced climate modeling, the research analyzes how these aerosols affected ISMP during different climate events, specifically the 2010 La Niña (excess precipitation) and 2015 El Niño (deficit precipitation).
- Findings indicate that sulfate aerosols significantly reduce ISMP by cooling the atmosphere and affecting convection and moisture transport, highlighting the urgent need for cleaner energy solutions to mitigate these effects and better manage water resources in South Asia.
