What are the branches of indian monsoon . mention their dirction of their flow.
Answers
The Indian Monsoon Current refers to the seasonally varying ocean current regime found in the tropical regions of the northern Indian Ocean. During winter, the flow of the upper ocean is directed westward from near the Indonesian Archipelago to the Arabian Sea. During the summer, the direction reverses, with eastward flow extending from Somalia into the Bay of Bengal. These variations are due to changes in the wind stress associated with the Indian monsoon. The seasonally reversing open ocean currents that pass south of India are referred to as the Winter Monsoon Current and the Summer Monsoon Current (alternately, the Northeast Monsoon Current and the Southwest Monsoon Current).[1] The Somali Current, which is strongly linked to the Indian monsoon, is also discussed in this article.

Answer: At the southern tip of the Indian peninsula, the monsoon hits generally by the first week of June. Subsequently, it proceeds into two branches: The Arabian Sea branch. The Bay of Bengal branch.
> Besides differential heating, the development of monsoon is influenced by the shape of the continents, orography (mountains), and the conditions of air circulation in the upper troposphere {jet streams}.
> Therefore, Halley’s theory has lost much of its significance and modern theories based on air masses and jet stream are becoming more relevant
