Homogenization and similarities of precipitation and flow regimes across China are
thoroughly investigated using Gini coefficient analysis method and the Analysis Of Similarity
(ANOSIM) technique, respectively based on daily precipitation data from 554 meteorological
stations and monthly streamflow data from 370 hydrological stations covering the period of
1960–2000. The results indicate that:(1) Homogenization of precipitation regimes is
increasing from the northwest to the southeast China. However, different spatial patterns of …
