Most of these dry areas on the map are pretty mountainous/significantly higher elevation. Have no idea how that makes things different, but it still strikes me

Most of these dry areas on the map are pretty mountainous/significantly higher elevation. Have no idea how that makes things different, but it still strikes me as a significant point to consider when interpreting the data.
- pilsetnieks 7y agoIt does not coincide with elevation (see an elevation map of Europe: https://www.eea.europa.eu/data-and-maps/figures/elevation-map-of-europe https://www.eea.europa.eu/data-and-maps/figures/elevation-ma...). Finland, the Baltics, Netherlands, Denmark, England, South of Sweden, North of France and Germany are pretty low. Italy, Greece and Turkey are all higher elevated and they are wetter than normal.
