- It is important to evaluate how climate has varied and changed in the past. The monthly mean historical rainfall and temperature data can be mapped to show the baseline climate and seasonality by month, for specific years, and for rainfall and temperature. The chart above shows mean historical monthly temperature and rainfall for Kenya during the time period 1960-1990. The dataset was produced by the Climatic Research Unit (CRU) of University of East Anglia (UEA).

- Major Lakes in Japan. The mean annual precipitation is about 1,700 mm (650 billion m³) in Japan, which is more than the global mean precipitation (900 to 1,000 mm). About 35 % of the precipitation amount is lost through evapotranspiration, and the amount of water available is about 420 billion m³. It is likely that Japan is a country with the large amount of precipitation. However, the change of stream-flow is large in Japan through a year. The time of the large stream-flow increased by melted snow, rain in a rainy season and the typhoon and the time of little stream-flow are repeated.
