What are the impacts of climate and meteorology on tourism?

1. Meteorological and climatic conditions directly create landscapes (such as Emeishan Buddha Light, etc.).

2. The changes in the four seasons increase the diversity of the natural landscape (birds singing in spring, green sunshine in summer, mountains full of red leaves in autumn, and the kingdom of ice and snow in winter).

3. Meteorological and climate factors affect tourism travel and routes.

4. Meteorological and climatic factors affect the time and spatial distribution of tourism flows.

Extended information

(1) Temperature and precipitation among climate factors directly affect the ice age and flow of rivers.

Rivers in low latitude and humid areas have a relatively long rainy season, relatively high precipitation, and large river flows; conversely, river flows are small. When the lowest monthly average temperature in winter is above 0°C, the river has no freezing period; on the contrary, the river has a freezing period (the geographical significance of the Qinling-Huaihe River line). And the lower the temperature, the longer the ice age (the latitude factor determines how much solar radiation energy the surface receives).

(2) Seasonal changes and inter-annual changes in precipitation directly affect seasonal changes and inter-annual changes in river runoff, which is mainly supplied by rainwater.

(3) The sooner or later the frontal rain belt advances in summer in my country and the duration of its advancement determine the length, sooner or later of the flood season in outflow rivers in eastern my country.
