Interpreting seasonal droughts over the Yangtze River Basin utilizing anomalies of local-scale atmospheric circulation by Hao Yin, Zhiyong Wu, Hai He

“…Study focus: This study quantifies the contribution of local-scale factors to seasonal droughts over the YRB, with a particular emphasis on specific humidity, vertical velocity, horizontal divergence, and relative vorticity at pressure levels from 100 to 925hPa. Using the 3D Density-Based Spatial Clustering of Applications with Noise (DBSCAN) algorithm, we identified 43 seasonal drought events in the YRB from 1971 to 2022. …”

Synergy Effects of the Indian Summer Monsoon and the Tibetan Plateau Heating on Summer Rainfall over North China by Siwen Zhao, Jie Zhang, Zhihong Lv

“…The results show that an enhanced ISM is accompanied by reduced TP heating, favors convection and easterly anomaly over the IS, and produces a Gill-type Rossby wave that affects the vorticity over North Africa. Meanwhile, there is another Rossby wave originating in North Africa and moving eastward to the Pacific Ocean, which interferes with circulation at mid- to high-latitudes, i.e., it strengthens the cyclone over the Baikal region and stretches the western Pacific subtropical high (WPSH) northward to northeastern Asia, and results in abundant water vapor transported to NC. …”
