Abstract

Atmospheric rivers (ARs) are narrow, elongated belts of intense water vapor transport that often occur in mid-latitude areas and are the primary drivers of heavy precipitation in these regions. This study investigates the impact of ARs on precipitation patterns in the Jianghuai River Basin during th...
