Why is monsoon rainfall called seasonal?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Because it occurs mainly during a particular time of the year

Monsoon rainfall is called seasonal because it is concentrated in a particular part of the year rather than being evenly distributed through all months. In India, the main southwest monsoon rainfall generally occurs from June to September. The winds change direction seasonally, bring moisture from the surrounding seas and produce most of the annual rainfall during this period. Therefore option A correctly explains the term seasonal rainfall. Equal rainfall every day is not a feature of the monsoon, and monsoon rain is not snowfall.

Seasonal does not mean that rain falls continuously or with the same intensity every day from June to September. There may be wet spells, breaks and regional differences. It means that the major rainy season is linked to a recurring period of the annual wind cycle. The relation with winds is essential, because seasonal heating and pressure changes help draw moisture-bearing winds toward the land. Thus the timing of rainfall, not daily equality, is the reason option A is correct.
