Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Rainfall variability refers to the degree to which rainfall amounts vary across time. Arid and semi-arid regions receive lower average rainfall and experience significantly higher coefficients of rainfall variability. Jodhpur, located in the desert/semi-arid region of Rajasthan, exhibits much higher structural variability in monsoon rainfall compared to humid and sub-humid cities like Kolkata, Ranchi, or Lucknow.
