Fig. 1: Internal variability in rainfall trends.
From: Importance of internal variability for climate model assessment
Change in June-July-August (JJA) total rainfall over a 51-year period from internal variability in a multimodel ensemble (MME) of climate predictions for (a) north-central India (20-28°N, 76-87°E) and (b) all-India (land-only) rainfall. The darker color indicates wetter trends. The dotted lines show the most extreme 51-year trends in the IMD observational record during 1950–2013 (the period for which drying trends were observed over north-central India) and 1901–2013 for all-India. The MME here is from the Climate Historical Forecasts Project (CHFP). See Methods for more details.
