DOI: 10.1175/jcli-d-17-0131.1
Abstract: AbstractCentral southwest Asia (CSWA: 20˚-47˚N and 40˚-85˚E) is a water-stressed region prone to significant variations in precipitation during its winter precipitation season of November-April. Wintertime precipitation is crucial for regional water resources, agriculture, and livelihood;… read more here.
