Zhejiang province region

The land area of Zhejiang is 10.55 million square kilometers, accounting for 1. 10% of the whole country. It is one of the smallest provinces in China.

Zhejiang Province is located in the south wing of the Yangtze River Delta on the southeast coast of China, bordering the East China Sea in the east, Fujian in the south, Anhui and Jiangxi in the west, and Shanghai and Jiangsu in the north. Qiantang River, the largest river in China, is called Jiangzhe River because of its winding water flow. Also known as Zhejiang, the province is called "Zhejiang" for short. The distance between east, west, north and south in Zhejiang Province is about 450 kilometers. According to the results of the second national land survey.

Zhejiang is the birthplace of Wuyue culture and Jiangnan culture, and one of the birthplaces of ancient civilization in China. As early as 50,000 years ago in the Paleolithic Age, there were primitive human activities of "Jiande people", including Hemudu culture 7000 years ago, Majiabang culture 6000 years ago and Liangzhu culture 5000 years ago. It is a typical water town in the south of the Yangtze River, a land of plenty, and is called "the land of silk" and "the land of plenty".

Zhejiang is one of the most active provinces in China. On the premise of giving full play to the leading role of state-owned economy, the development of private economy has driven the economic take-off and formed a distinctive "Zhejiang economy". By 20 13, the per capita disposable income will be the first in China. The Yangtze River Delta urban agglomeration consisting of Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Anhui and Shanghai has become one of the six world-class urban agglomerations in the world.

Zhejiang Province has 1 1 cities, including Hangzhou, Ningbo, Wenzhou, Shaoxing, Huzhou, Jiaxing, Jinhua, Quzhou, Zhoushan, Taizhou and Lishui, among which Hangzhou and Ningbo (cities with separate plans) are sub-provincial cities; It is divided into 90 county-level administrative regions, including 36 municipal districts, 20 county-level cities and 34 counties (including 1 autonomous county).

Zhejiang climate:

Zhejiang has a subtropical monsoon climate with four distinct seasons, moderate annual temperature, abundant sunshine, abundant rainfall, moist air, synchronous seasonal changes of rain and heat, diverse climate resources and numerous meteorological disasters. The annual average temperature is 15 ~ 18℃, the lowest and highest temperatures are in June and June respectively, and the rainfall concentration period is in May and June.

In spring, the East Asian monsoon is in the alternate season between the winter wind direction and the summer monsoon. The north-south airflow frequently meets, and the low pressure and frontal activity intensify. In spring, the climate in Zhejiang is cold and rainy, and there are often strong winds along the coast and offshore. The rain in Zhejiang Province is increasing, and the weather is unpredictable. It is said that "a child's face changes three times a day in spring".

In summer, with the establishment of the summer monsoon circulation system, the southeast wind prevails in Zhejiang, and the subtropical high activity in the northwest Pacific has an important influence on the weather in Zhejiang, while the cold air from the north to the south still has a certain influence on the weather in Zhejiang. The rainy days in Zhejiang province are 32 ~ 55 days. The main meteorological disasters in summer are typhoon, rainstorm, drought and flood.

In autumn, the summer monsoon gradually weakens and transitions to the winter monsoon. Cyclone activity is frequent, frontal precipitation is more, and temperature changes greatly. In winter, the strength of winter monsoon in East Asia mainly depends on the activity of Mongolian cold high pressure, while the weather in Zhejiang is affected by the cold air mass in the north (that is, winter monsoon), and there are relatively few types of weather processes.
