pstrongAbstract./strong This study investigated the influence of five El Ni?±oa??Southern Oscillation (ENSO) types on rainy-season precipitation in China central Pacific warming (CPW), eastern Pacific cooling (EPC), eastern Pacific warming (EPW), conventional ENSO and ENSO Modoki. The multi-scale moving it/i??test was applied to determine the onset and withdrawal of rainy season. Results showed that the precipitation anomaly can reach up to 30span class="thinspace"/span% above average precipitation during decaying CPW and EPW phases. Developing EPW could cause decreasing precipitation over large areas in China with 10a??30span class="thinspace"/span% lower than average precipitation in most areas. Conventional El Ni?±o in the developing phase had the largest influence on ENSO-related precipitation among developing ENSO and ENSO Modoki regimes. Decaying ENSO also showed a larger effect on precipitation anomalies, compared to decaying ENSO Modoki. The difference between rainy-season precipitation under various ENSO regimes may be attributed to the combined influence of anti-cyclone in the western North Pacific and the Indian monsoon. Stronger monsoon and anti-cyclone are associated with enhanced rainy-season precipitation. The results suggest a certain predictability of rainy-season precipitation related to ENSO regimes./p.
