Abstract:The rainstorms that initiate over mountains, propagate to, and suddenly intensify in nearby plains pose great challenges for weather forecasters and the public. Being in a mountain‐plain transition zone, the city of Beijing is prone to rainfall extremes induced by weakly forced mountain‐to‐plain storms. Despite efforts to understand their possible mechanisms, it remains unclear whether and how these mountain‐to‐plain precipitation extremes are affected by urbanization in Beijing. Here we use a high‐resolution … Show more
