“…Monsoon precipitation is strongest in areas of high relief and mid-elevation Burbank, 2006, 2010); above this a sharp decrease of precipitation with elevation has been shown in the central Himalayas since the mid-1990s (Salerno et al, 2015. Climate model scenarios include both increasing and decreasing monsoon intensity (Moors et al, 2011;Palazzi et al, 2013) and thus an element of uncertainty even with respect to the direction of future changes. For the QTP, an increase in precipitation has been inferred between about 1960 and 1990 and between 1951 and 2000 an increase in winter precipitation, together with a partial decrease in summer precipitation, were found (Zhai et al, 2005).…”

“…2) to provide 25 km resolution regional climate modelling of the Indian subcontinent (25 • N, 79 • E-32 • N, 88 • E) for the period 1960-2100. These RCM simulations are from the EU-HighNoon project (referred to hereafter as HNRCMs), currently representing the finest-resolution climate modelling available for this region Moors et al, 2011;Kumar et al, 2013).…”

“…For example different climate models applied the Ganges produce contradictory results. Regional climate models especially disagree on the future rain fall patterns (Moors et al, 2011). To improve these climate projections, evaluation of model performance using observation data is essential.…”
