 |
| Precipitation and black carbon mean for forcing run. Precipitation is shaded and is in units of mm/day. BC is contour lines and is in units of kg/m2. BC is divided by 1000. | Precipitation mean seasonal cycle in units of mm/day. Forcing run. | Black carbon mean seasonal cycle in units of g/m2. |
 |
 |
|
| Precipitation and black carbon variance for forcing run. Precipitation is shaded and is in units of mm2/day2. BC is contour lines in units of 20kg2/m4. BC is divided by 20000. | Precipitation variance seasonal cycle in units of mm2/day2. Forcing run. | Black carbon variance seasonal cycle in units of 20kg2/m4. Forcing run. |
 |
 |
 |
| Precipitation and black carbon variance with seasonal cycle removed for forcing run. Precipitation is shaded and is in units of mm2/day2. BC is contour lines in units of 20kg2/m4. BC is divided by 20000. | Precipitation variance seasonal cycle with seasonal cycle removed in units of mm2/day2. Forcing run. | Black carbon variance seasonal cycle with seasonal cycle removed in units of g2/m4. Forcing run. |

| Rain change due to black
carbon.
where c is the correlation coefficient of the normalized anomaly (grid rain vs. domain mean bc), σrain is the grid point standard deviation of rain, σbc is the grid point standard deviation of bc, and bcmean is the grid point mean of bc. Units are in mm/day. |
Percent rain change due
to black carbon.
where δrain is previously calculated for each grid point (see left) and rain is mean rain at the grid point. |
