Short summary
The Indian summer monsoon season runs from June to September. However, the exact onset date of monsoon varies from year to year. The onset marks the arrival of copious rainfall over India, and its accurate prediction has crucial societal implications. Comparing early versus late monsoon onsets, we note that warmer oceanic surface water in the Bay of Bengal advances monsoon onset over India. We validated our hypothesis by examining a climate model response to warm anomalies in the Bay of Bengal.
