Description:Aimed at improving knowledge regarding the diurnal cycle of warm-season rainfall in northwestern China, this study investigated the diurnal variations of warm-season precipitation with different durations in Xinjiang Province, China, using an hourly gauge–satellite merged precipitation product during 2008 to 2019. Results show noticeable diurnal variations with distinctive regional features. The primary peak is in the early evening. Rainfall events with duration less than 3 h occur more often across the whole of Xinjiang and contribute more than half of the precipitation amount over its northern and southern peripheries, while rainfall events with duration more than 7 h over the Tianshan Mountains are responsible for the primary peak in the diurnal variations of warm-season precipitation.
