Abstract

Latitudinal profiles of monthly normal of rainfall of west coast and east coast stations of Peninsular India were studied. On the west coast, a rainfall peak is seen near lat. 13/14°N in the monsoon season and near latitudes 9/10oN in the other seasons. On the east coast a rainfall peak is seen near latitudes 10/11°N in November, December and January and near latitudes 13/14°N in October. These rainfall peaks are found to occur over belts where, on the mean, there is good supply of moisture as well as low  level convergence.
