This study monitored the isotopic compositions of precipitation in Guilin as well as the influence of El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) on the isotope ratios and water vapour sources from 2015 to 2016. The results indicate that the lower isotope values of precipitation from ocean water vapour source are affected by long transport distance and fractionation during summer and autumn. In contrast, the isotope values of winter and spring precipitation are affected by continental air masses and their evaporation sources yielding higher values. The intercepts of the local meteoric water line in Guilin are larger than those of the global meteoric water line, which is typical for subtropical monsoon climate. During the El Niño event, development of anomalous anticyclonic circulation enhances the northbound transport over the western Pacific and brings abundant water vapour to the southern part of China. During El Niño event prevailing period, precipitations exhibit a lower δ 18O value and low d (deuterium excess) value, indicating that the 2015/2016 ENSO event had a significant effect on the precipitation distribution, precipitation amount, and isotope ratios in regional precipitation.
