摘要
This study investigates the role of soil moisture feedbacks in influencing interannual variability of summer light precipitation frequency over East Asia by analyzing two long-term simulations with and without interactive soil moisture using the Weather Research and Forecasting model coupled with the Noah land model. It is shown that soil moistureatmosphere coupling significantly amplifies interannual variability of summer light precipitation frequency over many areas, in particular the climatic and ecological transition zones, contributing to 3060% of the variance. The results suggest that soil moisture-atmosphere coupling constitutes an important cause explaining the variations of summer light precipitation events over East Asia.
