The Influence of Topography on East African October to December Climate: Sensitivity Experiments with RegCM4
Figure 8
Climatology of OND vertical velocity (omega × 10−2 Pas−1), averaged over latitudes 6°S–2°N for the period 2000–2008: (a) ERA interim reanalysis data, (b) simulated with actual topography (TP100 or control experiment), (c) simulated with topography over KTU reduced to 25%, and (d) difference between (c) and (b) [(c) minus (b)]. Contours are at 4 × 10−2 Pas−1 interval.
