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

Figure 11

The mean OND rainfall (mm) over selected regions which are not part of KTU, refered to as remote regions, averaged over KE (37°E–39°E, 3°N–5°N) in Kenya, TZ (33°E–39°E, 10°S–7°S) in Tanzania, and UG (30°E–33°E, 1°N–4°N) in Uganda. TP100 is due to the simulation with actual topography, TP25 represents simulation when the topography is reduced to 25%, CRU refers to the Climate Research Unit data, and GPCP is the Global Precipitation Climatology Project data.
