Relationships between Regional Indian Summer Monsoon Rainfall and Eurasian Snow Cover


doi: 10.1007/BF02656828

  • In this work, correlation analysis is applied to study the interannual relationships between Indian summer mon-soon rainfall of different homogeneous regions and Eurasian Snow Cover (ESC) during winter and spring seasons for the time period from 1973 to 1992. The monsoon rainfall of the western and central regions of India, as well as the all-India monsoon rainfall, is significantly negatively correlated with the ESC averaged for the months December-March and with, especially, the ESC of February. This study may provide some useful information for the long-range prediction of the regional Indian monsoon rainfall.

Abstract: In this work, correlation analysis is applied to study the interannual relationships between Indian summer mon-soon rainfall of different homogeneous regions and Eurasian Snow Cover (ESC) during winter and spring seasons for the time period from 1973 to 1992. The monsoon rainfall of the western and central regions of India, as well as the all-India monsoon rainfall, is significantly negatively correlated with the ESC averaged for the months December-March and with, especially, the ESC of February. This study may provide some useful information for the long-range prediction of the regional Indian monsoon rainfall.
