Abstract:This study analyses the spring climate anomalies under different configurations of western North Pacific anticyclone (WNPA) and Siberian high (SH). Compared to the WNPA alone with increased precipitation over southern China, the out-of-phase configuration (strong-WNPA-weak-SH) can enhance the WNPA-related southwesterlies over eastern China, favouring increased precipitation with larger amplitude over southern China and southern Northeast China. Differently, the in-phase configuration (strong-WNPA-strong-SH) de… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
