Fig. 2: Latitudinal distributions of the occurrence frequency for the two heavy rain types over the WP and EP analysis domains.

a The occurrence frequency of Type 1 (red) and Type 2 (blue) heavy rainfall averaged over the Western Pacific domain (see Fig. S1). Note that x- and y- axis indicates the number of heavy rain pixels and the latitude, respectively. b is the same as (a) except for the Eastern Pacific domain.
