Urbanization-induced increases in heavy precipitation are magnified by moist heatwaves in an urban agglomeration of East China
Heavy precipitation (HP) events can be preceded by moist heatwaves (HWs; ie, hot and
humid weather), and both can be intensified by urbanization. However, the effect of moist …
