Anomalous atmospheric fields during the heavy rainfall period in August 2021. a Anomalies of SLP (shading; unit: hPa) and geopotential height at 500 hPa (contours; unit: m). b Moisture flux anomaly (vectors; unit: kg kg−1 m s−1) at 925 hPa and its divergence (shading; unit: s−1). SLP anomaly (unit: hPa) is superimposed by thin contours. c Geopotential height anomaly at 200 hPa (shading; unit: m) and wave-activity flux (vectors; unit: m2 s−2). Green contours indicate 20 and 30 m s−1 isolines of the climatological-mean zonal winds at 200 hPa
