The AA. present the effects of the regional precipitation trend change on the area and intensity of severe acid rain in southern China. The spatio-temporal distribution characteristics of SO2 and NO2 are analysed. The significant increase in summer
rainfall in the south of the Yangtze River in 2000-2006. Therefore, the change in seasonal precipitation is an important factor in the severe acid rain regions moving eastward and expanding in southern China.
