Role of the South China Sea in Southern China rainfall: meridional moisture flux transport

Xiangting Li et al.

Summary: The South China Sea is a key source of moisture for rainfall in Southern China, with El Nino-Southern Oscillation and Tropical Northwestern Pacific variability affecting the rainfall patterns through moisture transport mechanisms. However, during the second rainy season, particularly in July, the impact of South China Sea moisture transport on Southern China rainfall is reduced, with other factors such as cyclonic anomalies playing a more significant role.

Improvements of the Daily Optimum Interpolation Sea Surface Temperature (DOISST) Version 2.1

Boyin Huang et al.

Summary: The DOISST v2.0 dataset exhibited cold biases in certain oceans due to the lack of drifting-buoy SST data ingestion, resulting in discrepancies with Argo observations. By conducting experiments and upgrading to version 2.1, biases were effectively reduced in the global ocean and Indian Ocean.

Historic Yangtze flooding of 2020 tied to extreme Indian Ocean conditions

Zhen-Qiang Zhou et al.

Summary: The record strong Indian Ocean Dipole event in 2019 played a key role in the severe flooding of the Yangtze River in 2020 by deepening the thermocline and warming the Indian Ocean. This led to anomalous anticyclone in the lower troposphere over the Indo-Northwest Pacific region and intensified the upper-level westerly jet over East Asia, causing heavy summer rainfall in the Yangtze Basin.

Variations in Summer Marine Heatwaves in the South China Sea

Yulong Yao et al.

Summary: Marine heatwaves (MHWs) in the South China Sea during summer, especially near the Nansha Islands and Beibu Gulf, have shown a significant increasing trend in the MHW days, duration, and frequency during 1982-2020. This is likely due to the anomalous intensification of the western North Pacific high pressure system causing disruptions in the summer southwest monsoon, leading to severe basin-wide MHWs in the South China Sea.
