  abstract = {{T}he relationships between south {A}sian monsoon and northern hemisphere subtropical deserts have generated a lot of interest in recent times as both systems, despite contrasting climates, are expected to be severely affected by anthropogenic climate change. {T}his review envisages two pathways for the monsoon-desert relationship. {T}he first one hypothesizes a significant influence of the monsoon on subtropical deserts whereby convection over the {I}ndian summer monsoon region induces {R}ossby-wave descent to its west. {T}he second one proposes a very different perspective by emphasizing the potential role of northern hemisphere deserts on the {I}ndian summer monsoon either through the changes of surface heating over the subtropical deserts or by dry air intrusions from arid regions into the monsoon domain. {H}owever, most current coupled climate models struggle to simulate realistically these monsoon-desert relationships due to various reasons, as documented in this chapter, calling for advances in coupled models with improved physical parameterizations.},
