Abstract

To break through the bottleneck of water vapor transport (WVT) studies in the past 20 years, the WVT for the center arid areas (CAA) of heavy rain in summer and late spring in Northwest China (NWC)were particularly investigated in the paper. The main conclusions are as follows:(1) Since the NWC covers a large areas, which has many orography obstruct and with changeable precipitation circulation, it is reasonable that there are different water vapor sources for its various subregions of NWC including North-and South-Xinjiang, Qinghai Plateau, and so on. They should be studied by different subregions and seasons, respectively. (2) The prevail precipitation combined circulation patterns in east-and west-part of NWC in summer have already summed up. (3) Under the particularly favorable circulation pattern with 500 hPa subtropical high extending westward (SHEW) in East China and by east wind in Gansu Corridor, the water vapor in Taiwan Strait Region (TSR) can rely on the three jets including Southeast monsoon jet over South China et al, following a counter 'Z' shaped path, which are relayed and transported in the order into the CAA. The moving status detail picture of their WVT process has been constituted. The TSR is the main water vapor source, which is the main WVT pattern in the CAA in summer and autumn rainstorms. (4) And similarly, another kind of WVT pattern in late spring has been explored jointly by Tao Jianhong et al. Under the circulation pattern with the Southwest jet in the Bay of Bengal (BB), the weak and cold high pressure (not the SHEW) in East China and the east wind over Gansu Corridor, the water vapor in BB can rely on the three jets including SW jet in BB et al, following the half circular shaped path around the east edge of the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau, are relayed and transported into the CAA. Namely, the BB might be another water vapor source of the late spring rainstorm in CAA.

Key words： The Central Arid Are; water vapor source a; Taiwan Strait Region; the subtropical high; relay transportation
