Precipitation nowcasting aims to predict short-term precipitation evolution over forecast lead times of 1–6 h and can support hydrological-risk and disaster-prevention applications when near-real-time observations are available. However, precipitation forecasting remains challenging because of rapid spatiotemporal evolution, spatial displacement, and the difficulty of representing localized high-intensity precipitation. To address these issues, this study proposes STAMP-GAN, a spatiotemporal attention-modulated generative adversarial network for regional precipitation sequence prediction. STAMP-GAN combines an AM-ConvLSTM temporal evolution module with spatial attention, efficient channel attention, large-receptive-field context modeling, and temporal-index-conditioned feature modulation. A spatially aligned two-dimensional digital elevation model (DEM) field is retained as static auxiliary geographical information. The STAMP-Net generator uses hierarchical multi-scale feature extraction to reconstruct precipitation structures at different spatial scales while a dual-branch temporal PatchGAN provides adversarial supervision for both the complete forecast sequence and the final three forecast frames. A hybrid objective combines regression, event-based, structural, temporal, and adversarial constraints. Experiments on the ERA5 and CMA-S datasets show that, compared with the best-performing baseline for each metric, STAMP-GAN achieves relative CSI improvements of approximately 6.5% and 9.5%, respectively. The proposed framework provides a data-driven approach for retrospective hourly regional precipitation sequence prediction under gridded meteorological-data conditions, rather than a fully validated operational real-time nowcasting system.
