Abstract

In cases of unstable climates like that of Peshawar (West Pakistan) which exhibit variations in rainfall amount, length of distribution and season of occurrence from year to year, averages have little meaning in bioclimatic studies. Range and coefficient of variation are indicated as well as average and median values of annual precipitation, the number of rainy days in the year, the length of the dry season in months and the xerothermic index, in order to give an idea of the magnitude of variability. A diagram to illustrate the variability in the bioclimatic elements has been designed.
