Mechanisms of a Record-Breaking Extreme Mei-Yu Rainfall Event in Taiwan: Synoptic-Scale and Mesoscale Forcings
This study investigates the dynamical mechanisms responsible for a historically extreme mei-yu rainfall event over Taiwan during 8–10 June 2006. The event produced the highest Taiwan-averaged 6-h precipitation intensity and 72-h accumulated rainfall within the 44-year mei-yu climatology (1979–2022), with six consecut...
