Abstract

This study investigated spatial and temporal patterns of trends of the precipitation maxima (defined as the annual./seasonal. maximum precipitation) in the
Yangtze River basin for 1960-2005 using Mann-Kendall trend test, and explored association of changing patterns of the precipitation maxima with large-

increasing, and significant increasing trend of precipitation intensity was detected in the middle and lower Yangtze River basin. Number of rain days with

the vapor flux. This circulation pattern will be beneficial for the longer stay of the Meiyu front in the Yangtze River basin, leading to more precipitation in the
middle and lower Yangtze River basin in summer months. The significant increasing summer precipitation intensity and changing frequency in the rain/norain days in the middle and lower Yangtze River basin have potential to result in higher occurrence probability of flood and drought hazards in the region.
