The Influence of Topography on East African October to December Climate: Sensitivity Experiments with RegCM4

Figure 1

The model domain and elevation (in m). The rectangle (EA) is the area of study (east Africa), located over longitudes 28°E–42°E and latitudes 12°S–5°N. The inner rectangle (red) is the area (KTU) over which topography is reduced [34°E–38°E, 6°S–2°N] in the sensitivity experiments.
