In this paper,the intensity index of East Asian summer monsoon in northeast China was defined objectively by using NCEP/NCAR daily reanalysis data and national precipitation data from 1961 to 2004.In the inter-decadal time scales,the correlations between sea-level pressure field,850 hPa flow field,500 hPa geopotential height,sea surface temperature,Arctic sea ice concentration,a variety of oscillation indexes and intensity index of East Asian summer monsoon in northeast China were analyzed.The analysis showed that the great value area of correlations was consistent between sea-level pressure field,500 hPa geopotential height field and intensity index of East Asian summer monsoon in northeast China in pre-winter or summer,and the correlation was much better in summer than in pre-winter.The correlation was poor between the sea surface temperature and intensity index of East Asian summer monsoon in northeast China,but the correlation was good between the Arctic sea ice concentration and intensity index of East Asian summer monsoon in northeast China.The correlation was better between the NPO index and intensity index of East Asian summer monsoon in northeast China than other indexes.
