The maintenance of the blocking over the ural mountains during the second Meiyu period in the summer of 1998
The 1998 summer—time floods at the Yangtze River basin of China, the severest in last 50 years or so, directly resulted from the abnormal extension of Meiyu (rainy season), which was related to a weak East Asi...
