This is surely the result of a continued high level of observer activity around the territory, including a growing number of photographers. The opportunity to easily post sightings and photographs to the HKBWS website helps to increase observer involvement. I hope that the trend will continue into the coming years. Among the new species recorded in Hong Kong during 2009-10, there were some real surprises. Before their discovery, few would have predicted Philippine Duck or Eurasian Roller as additions to the Hong Kong list, but perhaps the most surprising was the discovery of a Great Stone-curlew at Mai Po NR in June 2009. June is usually one of the quietest months for bird watching in Hong Kong, and this bird proved that rarities really can turn up at any time. As detailed in the first papers, all three of these unexpected first records were well supported by the new ‘Backward Trajectory’ maps presented on the website of the Hong Kong Observatory. These show the origin of the air mass arriving in Hong Kong each day, and may prove to be a useful tool for assessment of future records or studies of migration. This 2009-10 report has been published in record time, coming only a few months after the 2007-08 report. We are hoping that the 2011 report will also be published very soon, getting the annual reporting back onto track. I am particularly grateful to the editorial team for allowing us to get this report published so soon. Geoff Welch has done very well at obtaining records and ensuring the editorial process runs as smoothly as possible. The translating team led by Gary Chow has done an excellent job in providing a translation of the various papers. HKBWS Office have worked hard with the designer and the printer. Most of all, I would like to thank Geoff Carey, my predecessor as chief editor, for assisting with the editing team and ensuring a smooth transition which has allowed us to get this report completed efficiently.

Xuyang Ge,1*TimLi,1 Shengjun Zhang,1,2 and Melinda Peng3 1International Pacific Research Center, SOEST, University of Hawaii, Honolulu, HI, USA 2State Key Laboratory of Severe Weather, Chinese Academy of Meteorological Sciences, Beijing, China 3Marine Meteorology Division, Naval Research Laboratory, Monterey, CA, USA *Correspondence to: Abstract Dr Xuyang Ge, University of Hawaii, 1680 East-West Road, Despite its category-2 intensity only, Typhoon (tropical cyclone in the Western Pacific) POST Building 401, Honolulu, Morakot produced a record-breaking rainfall in Taiwan. A cloud-resolving model is used to Hawaii 96822, USA. simulate this extreme rainfall event and understand the dynamic aspect under this event. E-mail: [email protected] Due to the interaction between Morakot and a monsoon system, a peripheral gale force monsoon surge appears to the south of Taiwan. The monsoon surge remains even in a sensitivity experiment in which Taiwan terrain is reduced. However, the rainfall amount in Taiwan is greatly reduced without high topography over Taiwan, suggesting the important role the local topography plays in producing heavy rainfall. The overall numerical results Received: 22 September 2009 indicate that it is the interaction among the typhoon, monsoon system, and local terrain that Revised: 29 November 2009 led to this extreme event. Copyright 2010 Royal Meteorological Society Accepted: 2 December 2009 Keywords: heavy rainfall; typhoon 1. Introduction may have a great impact on TC genesis and subse- quent motion.

AFCD Survey of So far, over 35,000 records of about 1,500 species of plants and Local Fung Shui Woods animals have been collected, verified, and stored preliminarily on 漁農自然護理署風水林的植物調查 2 spreadsheets. We have also established a web, the HK Biodiversity Online (www.hkbiodiversity.net), to make part of the baseline Endemic Species Highlights information available to the public for education purpose. - Romer’s Tree Frog 5 Our findings so far confirm that Hong Kong has a rich Working Group Column: biodiversity. We have found a number of species which are new to Short-tailed Shearwater, Hong Kong or even new to science and there are many species its first record in Hong Kong 9 awaiting our discovery/rediscovery. House Crows (Corvus splendens) Our surveys also enrich our knowledge on the distribution of - Notes on their Population and our animals and plants. Findings suggest that our protected areas Control in Hong Kong 10 are protecting a very significant portion of our biodiversity. For the species groups surveyed and analyzed, over 95% of the terrestrial Distribution of Seagrasses and freshwater representatives which are regularly seen in Hong in Hong Kong 12 Kong have representative population(s) inside our protected areas.
