As mentioned before, the case studies are based on dekadal rainfall grids,
at a spatial resolution of approximately 0.1 degrees. Nevertheless, the
presentation of rainfall maps is restricted to annual rainfall amounts,
expressed in mm /month. Consequently, monthly images are created each as
a sum of three dekadal imges. In a further step, annual rainfall images
have been computed as the average of twelve monthly images.
The menu above allows to choose the rainfall map of a special year,
the movie including the evolution of rainfall amounts between 1983
and 2002 and the reference rainfall. The latter shows the average
rainfall map, again in mm /month, respecting all annual rainfall maps
from 1983 to 2002.
