भारत में किस ऋतु की विशेषता निवर्तन मानसूनी पवनें हैं?
Detailed Solution & Logic
Autumn/शरद ऋतु
Explanation
The retreating monsoon winds are associated with the Autumn season (October–November) in India.
- After the rainy season, the southwest monsoon winds start withdrawing from India.
- These winds move from land to sea, hence called retreating or northeast monsoon.
- During this time:
- Most parts of India become dry
- However, Tamil Nadu coast receives rainfall due to these winds
👉 This phase is also called the “Retreating Monsoon Season”.
भारत में निवर्तन (वापसी) मानसून पवनें शरद ऋतु (अक्टूबर–नवंबर) की विशेषता हैं।
- वर्षा ऋतु के बाद दक्षिण-पश्चिम मानसून वापस लौटने लगता है।
- ये पवनें स्थल से समुद्र की ओर बहती हैं, इसलिए इन्हें निवर्तन मानसून कहते हैं।
- इस समय:
- अधिकांश भारत में मौसम शुष्क हो जाता है
- लेकिन तमिलनाडु के तट पर वर्षा होती है
👉 इसे “वापसी मानसून ऋतु” भी कहा जाता है।
