What is a monsoon in what climate region is a monsoon most likely to occur?

Monsoons are located in the tropics, where the specific wind shift that causes them occurs seasonally. When a monsoon occurs in the Northern Hemisphere, there is a southwestern wind in the lower part of the atmosphere that mixes with a northeastern wind in the upper part of the atmosphere. When the two collide, the winds try to switch directions, causing the rotation that characterizes monsoons. In the Southern Hemisphere, it is the opposite, with the lower-level winds coming from the northeast and the higher-level winds blowing in from the southwest.
