3 Month Precipitation Persistence (Data from NCEP Climate Prediction Center CAMS-OPI)
Areas colored in green (brown) indicate regions where monthly rainfall
was in the top (bottom) 20% of the observational record with lighter (darker)
shading indicating where this condition was met for two (three) of the
past three months. Shaded regions indicate areas with increased vulnerability
to future climate stress. Contours are climatological precipitation
for the period in mm per month.
3 Month Temperature Persistence (Data from NCEP Climate Prediction Center CAMS)
Areas colored in red (blue) indicate regions where monthly temperature
was in the top (bottom) 20% of the observational record with lighter (darker)
shading indicating where this condition was met for two (three) of the
past three months. Shaded regions indicate areas with increased vulnerability
to future climate stress. Contours are the temperature anomaly for
the period in degrees C.
