Figure 2

Spatial distribution of observed cool season (May–October) rainfall and associated statistics. (a) rainfall climatology for the 1901–1960 period, (b) relative anomaly and (c) percentage change in rainfall for the 2001–2020 period relative to climatology shown in (a), and (d) the likelihood of the 2001–2020 period observed change arising from random variability computed using the bootstrapping method described in “Methods”. The region considered in this paper is the South West Coast drainage division shown inside the black polygon. The city of Perth is marked with a red open circle. Stippling indicates the regions where the rainfall change is not statistically significant at the 5% level.
