Abstract: This is the second part of a study investigating the 1991 severe precipitation event over the Yangtze?Huai River valley (YHRV) in China using both observations and regional model simulations. While Part I reported on the ...

Abstract: The summer Mei-yu event over eastern China, which is strongly influenced by large-scale circulation, is an important aspect of East Asian climate; for example, the Mei-yu frequently brings heavy precipitation to the ...

Abstract: To improve the application of uplift piles, the calculation method for ultimate bearing capacity is analyzed to study the significant difference between the calculation and test values of bearing capacity. The computational ...

Abstract: et primary productivity (NPP) is an important component of the carbon cycle and a key indicator of ecosystem performance. The aim of this study is to construct a more accurate regional vegetation NPP estimation model and ...

Abstract: easurements of air temperature and precipitation at 35 stations in Hubei Province, China, during 1962?2011 are used to investigate the regional climate change. There is an increasing trend for observed air temperature ...

Abstract: Observations indicate that the East Asian summer monsoon (EASM) exhibits distinctive characteristics of large cloud amounts with associated heavy and persistent rainfall, although short breaks for clear sky usually occur. ...

Abstract: easonal predictions of precipitation and surface air temperature from the Climate Forecast System, version 2 (CFSv2), are evaluated against gridded daily observations from 1982 to 2007 over 17 hydroclimatic regions in ...
