Sub-basin characteristics based on distribution and size of glaciated areas using Rudolph glacier inventory. The glaciated area percent contribution at sub-basin scale is used to generate new predictor variables for multiple linear regression models for WE prediction. We have addressed the following question: whether precipitation of glaciated sub-basins play some role in WE variability or not? Detailed information is provided in Extended Table 1. Glacier inventory data was downloaded from http://www.glims.org/RGI/randolph50.html (RGI Consortium (2015).
