[Method] Based on the data of longest continuous rainfall days in Shenyang from May to September in 1961-2008, the variation characteristics of longest continuous rainfall days in Shenyang in recent 48 years was analyzed by means of one-dimensional linear trend estimation and wavelet analysis method. [Result] In recent 48 years, the longest continuous rainfall days in Shenyang showed decrease trend from May to September except for June in which it showed increased; the total longest continuous rainfall days showed decrease trend, and the maximum value appeared in 1986, while the minimum value could be found in 1997; from periodic variation, the total longest continuous rainfall days had the period of 2-3 years, and there also existed the period of 5-7 years after 1980; the total longest continuous rainfall days were more from the beginning of 1960s to the middle of 1990s and less thereafter. [Conclusion] The study could provide theoretical foundation for the deep research on climate change in Shenyang.展开更多

The death toll from the massive rain-triggered mudslides in Zhouqu County had risen to 1,239 as of August 15, a week after the devastating mudslides hit the county, with 505 others still missing.展开更多
