• Temporal and spatial evolution characteristics of the 30-60 day oscillation （intraseasonal oscillation, ISO） of summer rainfall in China and the effects of East Asian monsoon on the rainfall ISO are analyzed in this paper. Results show that the annual and decadal variations of the oscillation exist between 1960 and 2008, and the intensity is weakest in the late 1970s and early 1980s. In the typical strong years of the rainfall ISO obtained from empirical orthogonal functions （EOF mode 1）, an anticyclone is in northwestern Pacific and a cyclone is in the east of China. In the typical weak years, the wind ISO is much weaker. The low-frequency zonal wind and water vapor transport from the low latitudes to mid-latitudes in the typical strong years, and the oscillation strength of diabatic heating is much stronger than that in the weak years of the rainfall ISO. The anomaly characteristics of the rainfall ISO show anti-phases between the Yangtze River basin and south of China. As for the typical strong years of the rainfall ISO in the Yangtze River basin （EOF mode 2）, the main oscillation center of water vapor is in the east of China （20–30°N, 110–130°E）. In the peak （break） phase of the rainfall oscillation, a low-frequency cyclone （anticyclone） is in the Yangtze River basin and an anticyclone （cyclone） is near Taiwan Island. In addition, the peak rainfall corresponds to the heat source in the Yangtze River basin and the heat sink in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. As for the typical strong years of the rainfall ISO in the south of China, the main oscillation center of water vapor is south of 20°N. In the peak （break） phase of the rainfall ISO, a low-frequency cyclone （anticyclone） is in the south of China and an anticyclone （cyclone） is in the Philippines. The peak rainfall corresponds to the heat source in the south of China and the South China Sea, and the heat sink in the west of Indochina.
