  1. Data on temperature and precipitation were provided from Information and Research Institute of Meteorology, Hydrology and Environment, Mongolia. Mean temperature means annual temperature and was calculated by averaging monthly temperature obtained from 2012 to 2016. Mean integrated values of precipitation were calculated by integrating monthly precipitation values of 1 year (2012 to 2016), and then averaged integrated values of 5 years. Minimum and maximum values of precipitation were mean precipitation in a month
  2. ASL: above sea level; min.: minimum; max.: maximum
