Köppen-Geiger climate classification, adopted from [24]. Open circles denote IGRA station locations while the color bar on the top denotes different climate classes. The number of IGRA rawinsonde sites (omitting coastal sites) as a function of Köppen-Geiger climate classification varies as Cfa: 12; Dfb: 8; BSk: 9; Dfa: 7; Dsb: 3; BSh: 2; BWk: 2; Dsa: 2; Csa; and Csb: 1. Climate types are not shown for coastal sites.
