Fig. 2: Asian sulfate-induced changes in precipitation over arid Central Asia (ACA).

a Geographical distribution of changes induced by increasing Asian sulfate (SULx10Asia) in JJA precipitation (mm day−1) in the multi-model mean (MMM), and (b) for changes in JJA total precipitation (PRECT, mm day−1), convective precipitation (PRECC, mm day−1), and large-scale precipitation (PRECL, mm day−1) averaged for the ACA domain. Slanted lines in (a) indicate where the MMM is more than 1 standard deviation away from 0 and error bars of MMM in (b) represent the standard deviation among the PDRMIP models.
