Abstract
The Fourth International Workshop on Monsoons (IWM-IV) was the first World Meteorological Organization (WMO) quadrennial monsoon workshop organized under the new World Weather Research Programme (WWRP). The previous emphasis of this workshop series on seasonal and long-term variations was expanded in IWM-IV to encompass all time scales (mesoscale, synoptic, intraseasonal, and climate) that are relevant to the forecasting of high-impact weather events, such as heavy rainfall, tropical cyclones, and droughts, in the world’s monsoon regions.
