Monsoon
A monsoon is a seasonal change in the direction of the prevailing, or strongest, winds of a region. Monsoons cause wet and dry seasons throughout much of the tropics and are most often associated with the Indian Ocean. They always blow from cold to warm regions, and the term is now commonly used to describe seasonal reversing winds accompanied by corresponding changes in precipitation.
Ocean
The ocean, also known as the global ocean, is the body of salt water that covers approximately 71 percent of the Earth's surface. This interconnected system is fundamental to life on Earth, regulating climate, shaping weather patterns, and supporting a vast array of biodiversity. It is traditionally divided into five major basins: the Pacific, Atlantic, Indian, Southern, and Arctic oceans.
