1. Fig. 1 a) All-India Summer (JJAS) Monsoon rainfall anomalies (% of mean) during The 31-yr sliding mean of the anomalies is shown in green shaded curve. The red/blue bars indicate years of El Nino/La Nina. b) All India annual surface temperature anomalies (respect to mean) during year sliding mean is shown as thick black line.

3. Fig. 4 a) Monsoon Rainfall (JJAS) difference between the future ( ) and present ( ). The values shown are % change of future with respect to the present. b) Annual temperature change in the future. c) Standardized anomalies of total column precipitable water averaged over the domain shown in a) as simulated in IPCC-AR4 19 models (only 1 run per model) during d) Standardized anomaly of meridional wind index (v-wind difference between 850hPa and 200hPa averaged over the domain shown in b)) simulated in 21 models during Standardization is done based on the mean and standard diviations of each model during the period

4. Fig. 5 Projected changes in daily maximum (Tmax) temperatures and some aspects of daily rainfall over India based on high resolution (50km) regional climate model (PRECIS). a) Highest pre-monsoon (March-June) daily temperature maximum during the baseline period ( ). b) Projected future ( ) change in Tmax in the SRES-A2 GHG scenario simulations. The PDFs in the inset of this figure show the probabilities of daily Tmax spells (in days) exceeding the 90th percentile (46.3 Deg C) value at New Delhi. The location of New Delhi is marked with a black dot in b). Panel c) shows the projected future number of rainy days (>2.5 mm of rainfall) during monsoon season and d) the projected change in the intensity (mm/day) of rainfall on a rainy day.
