dc.description.abstractThe modulation of Tanzanian coastal rainfall variability with the El Nino/Southern oscillation (ENSO), the largest known mode of Southern Hemisphere climatic variation is examined. A rainfall index was formulated from variable Tanzanian coastal stations and used to identify the rainfall characteristics of each ENSO year. Monthly anomalies of selected meteorological fields were analyzed for El Niño/La Niña composites and each individual event to determine the mechanisms associated with seasonal rainfall over teh Tanzanian coast during ENSO years.en_ZA
