The article discusses the impact of climate conditions on human civilization, specifically focusing on the traditional Meiyu climate phenomenon in East Asia. The traditional Meiyu was characterized by misty rain and non-extreme conditions, but in recent years, it has become rare to see misty Meiyu....
The 2020 Meiyu season has received extensive attention due to its record-breaking rainfall in the Yangtze–River Huai Basin (YHRB) region of China. Although its rainfall features have been well studied on various time scales, the sub-hourly/hourly rainfall features are unknown. In this study, ...
Meiyu occurs in Yangtze-Huaihe River valley (YHRV) every summer. Its intensity, distribution, and intraseasonal variation are greatly influenced by atmospheric forcings from different directions, such as the monsoon southwesterlies from the south, the western Pacific subtropical high (WPSH) in the ...
Meiyu precipitationtrendThe Yangtze River Delta (YRD) has experienced significant urban expansion in recent years, while the Meiyu belt of China has demonstrated a decadal northward shifting trend. Thus, it is of interest to assess how urban expansion affects Meiyu precipitation and hopefully to ...
Therefore, we further investigate the correlation between the Jianghuai cyclones and the precipitation during the Meiyu period. There is a positive correlation coefficient of0.77 between them. Notably, the percentage of precipitation affected by cyclone activities can reach up to 47%. The anomalous ...
