Fig. 3: Scatter plots of \(E({D}_{0})\) versus the Coefficient of Variation (CoV) based on the MMM of preindustrial control runs.

From: Improved estimates of future precipitation change in climate models

Fig. 3

a Annual, b DJF, and c JJA data. Each blue dot shows the value of (x, y) = (MMM(\({D}_{0})\), MMM(CoV)) at a particular grid point. The blue curve shows the cubic curve of best fit. The black curve shows the analytic solution for a 20-year reference period. Only grid points for which \({p}_{1}^{j}(t) > 0\) for all models and all t are included.
