Abstract

Ethiopia has complex climate conditions that make it difficult to apply forecasts at appropriate scales for water management decisions. In this study, drivers of Ethiopia’s main rainy season, July–September, are investigated using correlation analysis with sea surface temperature. This work is part of the ‘REACH Improving Water Security for the Poor’ programme
