Although frequently falling precipitations are mostly in form of rain, totalling 940 mm, yet also lot of snow falls there.
The variation with geography of isotope concentrations is linked with precipitations, cloud temperatures and with the amount of water that evaporates from soil and plants.
The dissolution and precipitation of crystals in porous media have been studied also in [7, 12] and [14, 17].
Much precipitation falls in the summer; and water is very scarce in the winter.
In other words, its major breeding-places must be those that are liable to flushing by precipitation runoff.
Further, solid precipitation is normally underreported due to the efficiency of precipitation gauges.
The monthly precipitation was 45-60 mm during the remaining months and was more evenly distributed.
First, there is more precipitation to support epilithic growth.
