Abstract

Ethiopia has been ravaged by severe drought for many of the last 35 years, primarily due to the failure of its main (Kiremt) rainy season in boreal summer. Kiremt quality results from the timing of its onset and cessation and the frequency and duration of intervening dry-spells. To address these key aspects of Kiremt variability, we analyzed specially constructed sets of research quality, daily rainfall and rawinsonde data for the longest available periods (25–57 years).
