The present study reveals that rainfall anomalies associated with the 25–90-day (quasi-
biweekly) tropical convective activity propagates northward (northwestward) into northern …

It is widely recognized that rainfall over the Yangtze River valley (YRV) strengthens
considerably during the decaying summer of El Niño, as demonstrated by the catastrophic …

Through composite analysis, the features of the atmospheric circulation during Meiyu onset
and possible mechanisms responsible for the westward extension and northward shift of the …

The present study investigates the impact of the East Asian winter monsoon (EAWM) on
winter (January, February, and March, or JFM in short) rainfall over southeastern China …

This study investigates the tropical and extratropical circulation anomalies that directly affect
the summer rainfall over the Yangtze River basin (YRB). In the lower troposphere, the …

The prediction of summer precipitation over the Yangtze River basin (YRB) has long been
challenging, especially during June–July (JJ), when the mei-yu generally occurs. This study …

The interannual variability of the South Asian high (SAH) in May plays an important role in
the evolution of the Asian summer monsoon. In this study, reanalysis data and an …

Abstract The South China Sea (SCS) summer monsoon onset has been regarded as the
beginning of the East Asian summer monsoon. In this study, we investigated the impacts of …

Abstract Using Global Precipitation Climatology Project daily rainfall and ERA interim
reanalysis data, we investigate the distinct characteristic of quasi-biweekly variation (QBV …

In this paper, a relatively systematic climatological research on the onset of the Asian
tropical summer monsoon (ATSM) was carried out. Based on a unified index of the ATSM …
