GEWEX Asian Monsoon Experiment Asian summer and winter monsoons play a major role in the global energy transport and water cycle by redistributing the total solar energy input to the Earth. The overall goal of the GEWEX Asian Monsoon Experiment (GAME) is to understand the role of the Asian monsoon in the global climate system and develop methods for long-range forecasting. GAME Objectives: To understand the role of the Asian monsoon in the global energy and water cycle. To improve the simulation and seasonal prediction of the Asian monsoon. To assess the impact of monsoon variability on the regional hydrological cycle.
