Fig. 9

Regions with dry and moist air masses (shading) obtained by subdividing each air mass zone (Fig. 5) into two clusters, and surface precipitation greater than 3 mm day−1 (white contour) in the (a) O–M half-year and (b) A–S half-year. The contour interval is 3 mm day−1. The blank areas mean the same as in Fig. 5. Td: Tropical dry, Tm: Tropical moist, Sd: Subtropical dry, Sm: Subtropical moist, Pd: Polar dry, Pm: Polar moist, Ad: Arctic/Antarctic dry, Am: Arctic/Antarctic moist
