Climate classification in China

There are six climate types in China, namely tropical monsoon climate, subtropical monsoon climate, temperate monsoon climate, temperate continental climate, alpine plateau climate and tropical rainforest climate.

1, tropical monsoon climate

Include southern Taiwan Province Province, Leizhou Peninsula, Hainan Island and Xishuangbanna. Annual accumulated temperature >; =8000℃, the average temperature in Leng Yue is not lower than 15℃, the annual extreme minimum temperature is not lower than 5℃ on average for many years, and the extreme minimum temperature is generally not lower than 0℃, and there is no frost all year round.

2. Subtropical monsoon climate

China, South China and East China all belong to this climate type. The annual accumulated temperature is between 4500-8000℃, and the average temperature in Leng Yue is 0- 15℃, which is a transitional zone between subtropical zone and temperate zone, and the summer temperature is quite high (average temperature >; =25℃ for at least 6 days, that is, 30 days), and the temperature is quite low in winter.

3. Temperate monsoon climate

North China belongs to this climate type. The annual accumulated temperature is between 3000 and 4500℃. The average temperature in Leng Yue is between-28 and-0℃, and the average temperature in summer is still above 22℃. The temperature over 25℃ is relatively rare and relatively warm and cool. In recent years, due to climate warming and other reasons, high temperature weather frequently occurs in southern North China, but the average temperature still does not exceed 25℃.

4. Plateau and mountain climate

The Qinghai-Tibet Plateau in China belongs to this type of climate. The annual accumulated temperature is lower than 2000℃, the daily average temperature is lower than 10℃, and the hottest temperature is also lower than 5℃ or even lower than 0℃. The daily temperature difference is large and the annual range is small, but the solar radiation is strong and the sunshine is sufficient.

5, temperate continental climate

The generalized temperate continental climate includes temperate desert climate, temperate grassland climate and sub-frigid coniferous forest climate. In a narrow sense, except for the latter, most of the inland areas of China north of 40 north latitude have temperate continental climate. Precipitation in these areas is scarce, with an annual precipitation of 300-500mm, and the daily temperature range is large, such as Xinjiang in China.

6. Tropical Rainforest Climate

Nansha Islands in China belong to this type of climate. It is hot and rainy all year round, with abundant precipitation. The annual average temperature is 28 to 30 degrees, and the annual precipitation is more than 2,800 millimeters. ..
