Table 2: Correlation coefficients among specific humidity, outgoing long wave radiation, moisture flux and SMRN (Bold values are significant above 95% confidence level). SHni and OLRni: Specific humidity at 1000hPa and outgoing long wave radiation over northern India (80-90°E, 20-25°N). SHnp and OLRnp: Specific humidity at 1000hPa and outgoing long wave radiation near Nepal (85°E, 25°N) only for June.
