“…These results are consistent with other findings; for instance, [12] spotted vast improvement in the monthly and seasonal rainfall values after bias correcting seasonal forecasts using BCSD method.

During the dry season (DJF), we observed that the BSCD was very good at bias correction, as very high values observed by the raw CHIRPS V2 in the southwestern parts of the country were well corrected to resemble those of the gauge.…”
