Abstract

Based on the daily precipitation data of 25 stations which are almost uniformly distributed in the Huai River basin during 1960-2014, the spatio-temporal characteristics of the occurrence timing in the Huai River basin were analyzed by using the methods of linear trend method, circular statistics, EOF analysis and so on. The main results are listed as follows:(1) The occurrence timing of extreme precipitation in the Huai River basin mainly concentrates in the mid and late July every year, and the time series of the occurrence timing shows obvious interannual oscillation. The time series of occurrence timing of extreme precipitation in the Huai River basin shows an advancing trend on the numerical value, but the advancing trend of occurrence timing of extreme precipitation does not reach 0. 05 significant level. The time series of the Concentration degree of the occurrence timing of extreme precipitation in the Huai River basin rises with time rising, and the rising trend has reached 0. 05 significant level by using the test of significance. All in all, the possibility of extreme precipitation happens in the July is increasing. (2)In space, the occurrence timing of extreme precipitation in the Huai River basin is gradually postponed from southwest to northeast in the Huai River basin, and most of the sites in the Huai River basin show the slightly advancing linear trend but do not reach 0. 05 significant level; the spatial distribution of Huai River basin is relevant to the changes of Meiyu and typhoon of Huai River basin, while to some degree the advancing trend may be due to the fact that the main rain belt of China has been moving northward from the original position since the 1990s. (3)The EOF analysis results of occurrence timing of extreme precipitation indicates:the typical spatial field of the first mode of the occurrence timing shows the anti-phase distribution between the northwest and the southeast in the Huai River basin, while the time coefficient series of the first mode shows the declining trend which do not reach 0. 05 significant level; the typical spatial field of the second mode of the occurrence timing is uniformly distributed in the Huai River basin, while the time coefficient series of the second mode shows the rising trend which do not reach 0. 05 significant level. And the results reveals the differential and approximately consistent spatial characteristics of occurrence timing of extreme precipitation in the Huai River basin.
