The South American #monsoon, which determines the #climate of much of the continent, might be pushed towards a “critical destabilisation point”, finds new study with PIKs Niklas Boers. This could put the #Amazon #rainforest at risk of large-scale dieback, pik-potsdam.de/en/news/lates…

The atmosphere remembers: New PIK study in @PNASNews reveals that atmospheric moisture acts like memory, controlling the abrupt on/off switch of #monsoon rains that billions rely on. Disruption could have global consequences. 👇

A 🆕 PIK paper finds that #monsoon systems around the world – including India’s southwest monsoon, which delivers over 70 per cent of the country’s annual rainfall – possess physical memories in the form of stored water vapour. 👇

Monsoons have a ‘memory’ — it's not just sunlight but stored atmospheric moisture that triggers their start and end. Disrupting this rhythm could have serious climate consequences, says new study
