"affecting precipitation" is grammatically correct and can be used in written English.
It is typically used in scientific or technical writing to describe something that has an impact on the amount or type of precipitation in a certain area. For example: - Climate change is affecting precipitation patterns, leading to more frequent and severe droughts. - The topography of the region plays a key role in affecting precipitation levels, with higher elevations receiving more rainfall. - The use of certain chemicals in farming practices can have a significant impact on the quality of affecting precipitation in nearby bodies of water.
Although the clouds' overall impact is not entirely understood, Mr. Ramanathan, a professor of climate and ocean sciences at the University of California, San Diego, said they might be affecting precipitation in parts of India and Southeast Asia, where monsoon rainfall has been decreasing in recent decades, and central China, where devastating floods have become more frequent.
The next task, he notes, will be to tease out the influences of greenhouse gases and aerosols to see which are affecting precipitation patterns more strongly, perhaps leading to new strategies to counter their effects.
Climate change is also seen as another challenge that will greatly reduce natural water resources in the region (Lebanon is no exception) by affecting precipitation, temperature, evaporation, relative humidity and solar radiation.
Results of stationary tests indicate that CC will not only affect precipitation and temperature but also the monthly maximum precipitable water, wmax, and the ensuing maximization ratio used for the estimation of PMPs.
We know that a warmer world affects precipitation and evaporation and this should affect droughts.
This produces the marked summer-winter temperature extremes of a continental climate while also establishing the northeast Asian monsoons (seasonal winds) that affect precipitation patterns.
Air pollution can affect precipitation in many ways.
Climate change will affect precipitation and flood regimes.
First, construction of wind farm affects precipitation in the region, causing reduction of water area.
These anomalies have been shown to affect atmospheric flow patterns and ultimately affect precipitation over the Midwestern United States.
Changes in forest cover may be correlated with other environmental changes that may affect precipitation, transpiration, and runoff, indicating that more thorough investigation is required in both field and simulation studies.
