Figure 3. Summary of the northward migration of the East Asian summer front and associated climate conditions. For both the active frontal season and late summer, the figure shows how the position of the front (red lines), frontal precipitation (shading), the western North Pacific subtropical high (contours), water vapor transport (arrows), sea surface temperature (red dots), and heat stress (brown shading) are associated in the past and recent 20-year periods. In the recent 20-year period, these associated patterns appear more clearly over a wider area. (Fig. 5 in the original paper)
