It is largest in regions of scanty rainfall because there is a greater chance of a dry year or a wet year. In regions of high rainfall, the average rainfall is already high, so there is less variation from year to year. In coastal areas, the variability of rainfall is intermediate between that of regions of high rainfall and regions of scanty rainfall.
