New paper finds warming reduces monsoon intensity: ‘Finds the intensity of the winter monsoon in the S. China Sea has markedly decreased ‘over the last 24 years (1977–2000)’
'...to] approximately 20% of avg. over last 183 years (1918–2000).' The paper finds the strongest wind velocities took place in the 1830s (during the Little Ice Age) and the weakest in the 1940's period of global warming. The paper adds to many others which show, contrary to the claims of alarmists, that warming results in reduced extreme weather. (Paper published in Global and Planetary Change)
