, +”. The precipitation in East China underwent
from the pattern of south-drought and northern-waterlog before 1979 to
south-waterlog and north-drought.
6. The precipitation increased in North China and Northeast China from
1994. Will the spatial distribution pattern of precipitation anomaly
percentage in East China transit from the pattern of south-waterlog and
north-drought to south-drought and northern-waterlog in the future?
When will happen? We will make further study.
7. In this paper, we just give out the interdecadal variability of EASM's
movement. How is the activity of EASM in the interdecadal timescales?
What cause the interdecadal variability? These questions should be
studied further.
