Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The amount and Intensity of monsoon rainfall is determined by the frequency of Tropical depressions. A tropical depression forms when a low pressure area is accompanied by thunderstorms that produce a circular wind flow with maximum sustained winds below 39 mph.
Detailed explanation-2: -IT’S MOVEMENT DETERMINES THE SPATIAL DISTRIBUTION OF RAINFALL. TROPICAL DEPRESSIONS FOLLOW THE AXIS OF THE ‘MONSOON TROUGH OF LOW PRESSURE’ AND DETERMINE THE AMOUNT AND DURATION OF THE MONSOON RAINS BY THEIR FREQUENCY AND INTENSITY.
Detailed explanation-3: -Variations in monsoon intensity over India are measured primarily using precipitation data and, also, using vertical wind shear, which indicates heating differences.
