Figure 1. a) Climatology of HW frequency determined from reanalysis data. White and black 2
circles indicate the 70 surface meteorological stations. Black circles indicate 21 stations used for 3
soil moisture. Red line shows the area used for Fig. 4. b) Interannual variation of JJA-mean 4
maximum air temperature and its standard deviation (grey shading) averaged over the 70 stations 5
in Mongolia. Bars represent the annual number of HW and widespread HW (when more than half 6
of the 70 stations simultaneously observed HW) days, respectively. 7

Figure 4. Interannual variation of HW, ACF, SPI, and SM. For SM, local observation and 4
reanalysis are displayed. HW and SPI are averaged over all 70 stations, while observed SM is 5
averaged over 21 stations. Reanalysis SM is averaged over the framed area in Fig. 1. 6

Figure 5. (a) Scatter plot between ACF and HW with different SPI and reanalysis SM. Plus 5
(minus) sign for SPI indicates wet (dry) years. For SM, blue and red colours indicate wet and dry 6
years, respectively. (b) Composite of daily temperature tendencies before ∆𝑔𝑔𝑔𝑔 becomes lower than 7
the threshold values (day=0). Dashed and solid lines are for strong and very strong atmospheric 8
forcing, respectively. Red and blue lines represent dry and wet initial SM condition, respectively. 9
