The Climate
Climatologically, most parts of Pakistan
are arid to semi-arid with significant
spatial and temporal variability in
climatic parameters
59% of the annual rainfall is due to
monsoon rains; a dominant hydrometeorological re-source for Pakistan
5
The Climate
Greater Himalayan region above 35N
receives winter precipitation mostly in
the form of snow and ice.
The snow melt contribution keeps the
rivers perennial throughout the year
The Climate
The coastal climate is confined to a narrow
strip along the coast in the south and
southeast, while the north is dominated by
the mountain climate. In between the climate
is broadly of typical continental nature
Coastal areas are vulnerable to sea level
rise, Storm surges & associated flash
flooding
