Asian winter monsoon

The year 2023 has been marked by climatic extremes, with intense heatwaves that have set off global alarm bells. As winter approaches, there is growing speculation about the possibility of experiencing the warmest winter on record.

NASA’s Sea Level Change Science Team has found that if a strong El Niño develops this winter, it could lead to tidal flooding in many countries, particularly in cities along the U.S. West Coast.

The winter monsoon brings heavy rains to many parts of Southeast Asia, causing floods and landslides that affect millions of people and damage agriculture and water resources
