The Indian monsoon is likely to fail more often in the next 200 years, warns this new study by Jacob Schewe and Anders Levermann published in the journal Environmental Research Letters. Says that the monsoon rains could collapse about every fifth year between 2150 and 2200 with continued global warming.
