The dataset covers eastern Asia at a temporal range of April to June 2016-2020. We identified initial rain clusters (RCs) from the Global Precipitation Measurement 2ADPR dataset and Mesoscale Convective Systems (MCSs) from the Himawari-8 Advanced Himawari Image gridded product. Based on the contours of the initial RCs and MCSs, we then carried out a series of resilient processes, including filtration, segmentation, and consolidation, to obtain the final RCs. The final RCs had a one-to-one correspondence with the relevant MCS. We extracted the RC area, central location, average radar reflectivity profile, average droplet size distribution profile and other precipitation information from the final RCs and retrieved the life cycle evolution of the MCS area, location, and cloud-top brightness temperature from the corresponding MCSs and tracking algorithms. This dataset facilitates studies of the life cycle evolution of precipitation and provides a good foundation for convection parameterizations in precipitation simulations.
