Time series of mean rainfall in the wet season each year averaged over a tropical Western Pacific region, and over a region around Hawaii

Time series of mean rainfall in the wet season each year averaged over a tropical Western Pacific region (June-September, top) and over a region around Hawaii (December-March, bottom). Results are from a single realization forced with observed greenhouse gas concentrations from 1860 to 2005 and with projected concentrations using the CMIP5 RCP8.5 scenario through 2100.
