Future Changes of the Monsoon Trough: Sensitivity to Sea Surface Temperature Gradient and Implications for Tropical Cyclone Activity

Abstract Most tropical cyclones (TCs) in the western North Pacific basin form, intensify, and move in the monsoon trough (MT), and its future changes have significant implications for TC activity. In this study, future changes in MT and its possible impacts on TC activity are investigated by using o...
