“…At the same time, the East Asian summer monsoon, which significantly interacts with the SASM (e.g. Ding et al 2013;Wu 2017;Wu, Hu, and Lin 2018), experienced interdecadal change with decreased and increased rainfall over the lower Yangtze River and the Huang-Huai River valley, respectively (e.g. Zhu et al 2011Zhu et al , 2015Liu et al 2012).…”

The drying trend in the South Asian summer monsoon (SASM) area has been a focus of monsoon rainfall studies in the last two decades. However, this study reveals that a significant interdecadal change in the SASM rainfall occurred in approximately the year 2000. Obvious spatial inhomogeneity was a feature of this change, with increased rainfall over the southern part of the India-Pakistan border area that extends from the Arabian Sea, as well as in the western Bay of Bengal. Furthermore, there was decreased rainfall over the southern SASM and the western coast of the Indian Peninsula. Numerical experiments using CAM4 show that global SST changes can induce general changes in the SASM circulation consistent with observations. The tropical Pacific/Indian Ocean SST anomalies dominated the Walker and the regional Hadley circulation changes, respectively, while the descending motion anomalies over the southern SASM were further enhanced by the warmer tropical Atlantic SSTs. Moreover, the spatial inhomogeneity of this interdecadal change in the SASM rainfall needs further study.

Studies of the multi-scale climate variability of the Asian monsoon are essential to an advanced understanding of the physical processes of the global climate system. In this paper, the progress achieved in this field is systematically reviewed, with a focus on the past several years. The achievements are summarized into the following topics: (1) the onset of the South China Sea summer monsoon; (2) the East Asian summer monsoon; (3) the East Asian winter monsoon; and (4) the Indian summer monsoon. Specifically, new results are highlighted, including the advanced or delayed local monsoon onset tending to be synchronized over the Arabian Sea, Bay of Bengal, Indochina Peninsula, and South China Sea; the basic features of the record-breaking mei-yu in 2020, which have been extensively investigated with an emphasis on the role of multi-scale processes; the recovery of the East Asian winter monsoon intensity after the early 2000s in the presence of continuing greenhouse gas emissions, which is believed to have been dominated by internal climate variability (mostly the Arctic Oscillation); and the accelerated warming over South Asia, which exceeded the tropical Indian Ocean warming, is considered to be the main driver of the Indian summer monsoon rainfall recovery since 1999. A brief summary is provided in the final section along with some further discussion on future research directions regarding our understanding of the Asian monsoon variability.
