Based on the precipitation data of D105 station located in northern slope and WADD station located in southern slope of Tanggula Mountain over the Qinghai-Xizang (Tibetan) Plateau obtained by GAME-Tibet fieldwork group duing May-September, 1998, the features of summer monsoon precipitation are compared.The results show that the precipitation of each side occurs with high frequency. The precipitation at WADD is 48.8% more than that at D105. However, the accumulation frequency of precipitation at WADD is a little bit higher than that at D105. Meanwhile, the mean precipitation intensity at WADD is higher than that at D105. In most cases, the daily precipitation varies similarly on each side, it is shown that the precipitation processes on both sides could be similar.
