Data a and Analysis ysis
Diagnostic Analysis: Bivariate Probability Distribution Function (BPDF) of the two variables (PV and rainfall) Specific humidity (q) (vertically averaged between 400hPa-200hPa) Vertical wind shear (i.e. difference in zonal winds (U) at 200hPa minus 850 hPa) Temperature anomaly (departure from climatology) index (Tanom_diff_index), (i.e. temperature anomaly at 200 hPa minus 850 hPa) Kinetic energy at 200 hPa (ke200 i.e. U*U) ERA-Interim Reanalysis data:
- Potential Vorticity (PV)
- temperature
- winds
- ozone
- relative humidity (RH)
- Indian summer monsoon rainfall (ISMR) from India Meteorological Department

Bivariate Probability Distribution Function (BPDF) is negatively skewed, indicating a likelihood of deficit monsoon during stratospheric intrusions (PV>2). It indicates that subtropical stratospheric intrusions near the Indian region may be one
- f the factors influencing ISMR deficit.
