This study investigated the effects of El Niño events on tropical cyclone (TC) characteristics over the western North Pacific (WNP) region. First, TC characteristics associated with large-scale atmospheric phenomena (i.e., genesis position, frequency, track, intensity, and duration) were investigated in the WNP in relation to various types of El Niño events—moderate central Pacific (MCP), moderate eastern Pacific (MEP), and strong basin-wide (SBW). Subsequently, the seasonal and regional variability of TC-induced rainfall across China was analyzed to compare precipitation patterns under the three El Niño types. When extreme El Niño events of varying degrees occurred, the local rainfall varied during the developmental and decaying years. The development of MEP and SBW was associated with a distinct change in TC-induced rainfall. During MEP development, TC-induced rainfall occurred in eastern and northeastern China, whereas in SBW, TC-induced heavy rainfall occurred in southwest China. During SBW development, the southwestern region was affected by TCs over a long period, with the eastern and northeastern regions being affected significantly fewer days. During El Niño decay, coastal areas were relatively more affected by TCs during MCP events, and the Pearl River basin was more affected during SBW events. This study’s results could help mitigate TC-related disasters and improve water-supply management.
