The Western Ghats receive high rainfall during the southwest monsoon due to orographic lifting. Moisture-laden monsoon winds rise over the mountains, cool, condense, and release heavy rainfall on the windward side.
Explanation:
The retreating monsoon (October-November) is characterized by clear skies, high humidity, and rising temperatures, leading to the 'October Heat' phenomenon.
Explanation:
The West African monsoon is driven by sea surface temperature differences in the Gulf of Guinea, land-sea temperature contrast over the Sahara, and the northward migration of the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ).
