LASG/IAP Global Monsoon Changes (1948-2004) Annual Mean Precipitation Wang and Ding 2006, GRL In the last 56 years global land monsoon (domain shown in upper panel) shows a weakening trend (left lower panel). However, in the last 25 years, Oceanic monsoon rainfall increases while land monsoon unchanged (lower right panel).
