Abstract
Moisture transport and budget are closely related to monsoon activity. As the onset of the summer monsoon occurs, a large amount of moisture is brought into the monsoon region with monsoonal airflows, thus providing a necessary condition for the possible occurrence of monsoon precipitation. The wet episode of the monsoon season usually corresponds to the atmosphere with high moisture content and much precipitation. Therefore, significant attention has been paid to this problem.
