Abstract Atmospheric rivers (ARs) are long, narrow synoptic scale weather features important for Earth’s hydrological cycle typically transporting water vapor poleward, delivering precipitation local climates. Understanding ARs in a warming climate is problematic because the AR response to change tied how feature defined. The River Tracking Method Intercomparison Project (ARTMIP) provides insights into this problem by comparing 16 atmospheric river detection tools (ARDTs) common data set...
Abstract Eastern China is perennially hit by mesoscale convective systems (MCSs), yet it remains an open question as to whether and how their general properties change throughout the annual cycle. By leveraging high‐resolution satellite observations a hybrid tracking algorithm, we present 20‐year (2001–2020) climatology of MCSs over eastern during eight subseasonal‐to‐seasonal (S2S) monsoon stages. contribute up 50% stage‐total precipitation 60% rainband‐zone Pre‐Meiyu Meiyu episodes,...
