Quantification of Rainfall during the Late Miocene–Early Pliocene in North East India

The monsoon rainfall contributes about 30% of the total global rainfall. The Asian monsoon system (ASM) is one of the largest systems and is of great significance in the global climate system. It consists of two subsystems, namely Indian summer monsoon (ISM)/southwest (SW) monsoon/South Asia summer monsoon (SASM) and East Asia monsoon (EAM).
