A distribution in the clouds


Here is an endpaper from a book displayed at a site on the Visual Telling of Stories via www.strangemaps.wordpress.com. The book is likely about travel across the US with commentary on geology, geography, etc. A close-up is shown here. The elevation profile towards the bottom has, above it, a frequency distribution (in clouds) of the annual rainfall in each part of the country.
