Significance of Climate Change Curve in Zhu Kezhen

The significance of Zhu Kezhen climate change curve lies in that it corresponds the climate change in the historical period of China with the historical year, and it is the result of quantitative analysis of climate change in the earliest historical periods in China.

I. Introduction of Zhu Kezhen Curve

This curve shows the climate change in China in the past 5,000 years, which is also called "Zhu Kezhen Curve".

In addition, Zhu Kezhen's climate change curve is decades ahead of the "Greenland curve" of western scholars, causing a sensation in the world. It is of great significance to understand the climate change in the historical period, predict the future climate trend and formulate strategies to adapt to climate change.

At the same time, as the founder of modern meteorology and geography in China, Zhu Kezhen's curve also reflects his observation and record of China phenology. His research on climate change is not only of great scientific value, but also of great significance to our understanding of China's history and culture.

To sum up, Zhu Kezhen's climate change curve has important scientific and cultural value, which provides us with an important tool to deeply understand the climate change in the historical period of China, and also shows the important contribution of China scientists in the meteorological field.

Second, Zhu Kezhen introduced.

Zhu Kezhen (1March 7, 890-1February 7, 974), a native of Dongguan Town, Shaoxing County, Zhejiang Province, is an academician of Academia Sinica and China Academy of Sciences, party member, producer of China, modern meteorologist, geographer and educator in China, founder of modern geography and meteorology in China, and former president of Zhejiang University.

1On March 7th, 890, Zhu Kezhen was born in Dongguan Town, Shaoxing, Zhejiang Province (now Shangyu District, Shaoxing City, Zhejiang Province) to a small businessman's family. 1909 Zhu Kezhen was admitted to Tangshan Road and Mining School (now Southwest Jiaotong University) to study civil engineering.

19 10 to study in the United States at public expense; 19 18 received a doctorate from Harvard university; 1920 autumn, apply for Nanjing Normal University; Since 1929, he has been elected president of China Meteorological Society for many times; 1934 participated in the establishment of the geographical society of China; 1936 served as president of Zhejiang university in April, lasting 13 years.

Zhu Kezhen's main achievements

I. Academic achievements

Zhu Kezhen is the founder of historical climatology, in which historical climate change is one of his greatest efforts and achievements, and enjoys a high reputation in the international scientific community. Zhu Kezhen's other great contribution to historical climatology is historical phenology. Zhu Kezhen has established more than 40 weather stations and more than 65,438+000 rainfall measuring stations in China.

On the one hand, he attached importance to the observation and recording of phenology. From the day after 192 1 returned from studying abroad to the day before 1974 died, he observed and recorded phenology and weather every day. On the other hand, he collects historical phenological data extensively. The book Phenology, co-authored by him and Wan, is rich in historical phenological data and research results, which are rare in other countries' phenological works.

Second, educational achievements.

Zhu Kezhen clearly put forward that universities should cultivate leaders who take the world as their responsibility.

During the 13 years as the president of Zhejiang University in Zhu Kezhen, Zhejiang University has developed from 16 departments in three colleges of literature, science, engineering, agriculture, teachers, law and medicine to 25 departments (up to 30 departments at most) and 10 research institutes in seven colleges of literature, science, engineering and medicine.
