And the droughts could be worse during the summer months, a time when agriculture is most vulnerable to them, bringing food shortages and wildfires to the region, the study suggests.&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div>&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div>&quot;We know that the monsoon is strengthening at the moment and know that areas that receive rain will get more,&quot; says Nerilie Abram at the Australian National University in Canberra, &quot;but we don&#8217;t know the knock-on effects.&quot;<\/div>\n<div>&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div>By looking at 6500-year-old fossil corals in Indonesia, Abram and her colleagues found that strong monsoons &ndash; which bring more warm, moist air and rain to India than usual &ndash; have historically been associated with cool sea temperatures on the other side of the Indian Ocean, close to the western coast of Indonesia.&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div>&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div>See <a target=\"_blank\"
