The range, inter-quartile range (IQR), mean absolute deviation [from the mean], variance and standard deviation are some of the many measures of variability.

Climate variability is unknown
It tells you how much variability there is in the data. A small standard deviation (SD) shows that the data are all very close to the mean whereas a large SD indicates a lot of variability around the mean. Of course, the variability, as measured by the SD, can be reduced simply by using a larger measurement scale!

The answer will depend on what the question actually is!
The usual measures of variability cannot.
The degree to which rainfall amounts vary across an area or over time is called 'rainfall variability'. It has two components viz. saptial variability and temporal variability.
