Tropical deciduous forests are also known as :
Monsoon forests
Monsoon forests option is correct.
Tropical deciduous forests occur in regions with a distinct wet and dry season, receiving 100–200 cm of annual rainfall largely delivered by the summer monsoon. Trees such as teak, sal, sandalwood and shisham shed their leaves during the dry period to conserve water, and flush new foliage with the onset of the rains. Because their phenology is tied directly to monsoonal rainfall, these forests are also called monsoon forests in Champion & Seth's classification of Indian forest types.
Mangrove forests are salt-tolerant intertidal ecosystems (Sundarbans), montane forests occur on mountain slopes with temperature-driven zonation, and temperate forests belong to mid-latitude climates with cold winters — none share the monsoon-driven leaf-fall trait.
