Geographical distribution of the probability of finding (a) WCCs with moderate thresholds and (b) BSRs with strong thresholds during the months of DJF, and (c) WCCs with moderate thresholds and (d) BSRs with strong thresholds during the months of JJA. The black contour inside the continental regions represents the 700 m elevation. The probability is on a scale of 0 to 1 and is computed as the number of pixels identified as belonging to an echo category divided by the total number of pixels sampled by the TRMM PR over the given time period within a 0.5° × 0.5° grid element.
