Atmospheric moisture shapes increasing tropical cyclone precipitation in southern China over the past four decades

Although slower translation speed can induce a larger amount of local rainfall for an individual tropical cyclone (TC), whether change in total TC precipitation (TCP) affecting China is related to TC translation speed in the satellite era remains unclear. Based on multiple TC best-track datasets and...
