Extreme monsoon may lead to dip in sea fish catch: Study
A new study reveals that stronger, more unpredictable monsoons, driven by global warming, could devastate fish populations in the Indian Ocean. By analyzing ancient plankton shells, researchers found that past monsoon extremes led to collapses in marine productivity in the Bay of Bengal. These disruptions, caused by altered river runoff and ocean stratification, threaten the region's vital fisheries.
