The results show that: (1) TC seasonal rainfall contribution ranges from 4% in inland regions to above 40% in ocean-regions of 15°N-25°N. TCs at higher categories contribute much more to the total precipitation. (2) On monthly scale, TCs contribute 60% to the total rainfall regionally during whole TC season, which is the maximum contribution. The peak contribution of TC rainfall averaged in multi-months of the ten years occurs in August (28%) over the whole ocean impacted by TC and in December (23%) over the whole land impacted by TC, respectively. (3) On annual scale, the maximum contribution of TC precipitation to the total rainfall are in 2004 (-30%) over ocean and in 1998 (-20%) over land, respectively. (4) The contribution of TC precipitation to the total rainfall increases 6% (decreases 6%) in El Nino (La Nifia) years compared with neutral years.展开更多
