	Kenya and Tanzania Crop Tour Summary Report (June/July 2005)
		In Tanzania, the SoS product had difficulty near the highland regions near Arusha where the unimodal (one rainy period during the year) and bimodal (two rainy periods per year) rainfall patterns merged together and the dividing line between the two patterns tends to be a function of elevation.
		Reports from local experts confirmed a GIS rainfall analysis that shows highland regions near Arusha are unimodal (with one long growing season caused by slow plant growth from cooler temperatures), and lowland regions tend to be bimodal (with two shorter growing seasons and rapid plant growth from warmer temperatures).
		The Arusha-Moshi region is difficult to model because it is where unimodal and bimodal rainfall patterns transition and RFE data from NOAA are often underestimated in highland regions.
