Slower-decaying tropical cyclones produce heavier precipitation over China

Y. Lai, X. Gu, et al.

This research conducted by Yangchen Lai, Xihui Gu, Lihong Wei, and others reveals a significant 45% slowdown in the decay rate of tropical cyclones making landfall in China. The findings highlight the urgent need for improved flood management strategies due to increased flood risks associated with slower decays and rising precipitation.
