What are the main types of climate and meteorological tourism resources?

There are many common types of meteorological tourism resources, mainly including rain scene, cloud scene, snow scene, summer scene, sun and moon scene, fantasy scene and extreme scene.

(1) Rain Scene

Rain scene is a kind of natural landscape often encountered in tourism. Rain scenes often add infinite charm to the surrounding tourism resources under specific environmental conditions. First of all, the drizzle makes mountains, trees, bridges and running water looming, which has a hazy beauty or artistic conception. Since ancient times, many rainy spots have formed in China, such as "Hongxiao Chunyu", one of the ten scenic spots in Emei Mountain, "Rain in the sky", one of the ten scenic spots in Penglai, and misty rain and late rain in the south of the Yangtze River. Secondly, the sound of raindrops, rain hitting "bananas" and "raindrop residues" will also add a sense of tranquility and rhythm.

However, as a beautiful scenery, the rain scene cannot be separated from the cooperation of seasons. Spring rain is the most charming, and the spring rain in Jiangnan is even more charming. "There are many rains during the Qingming period, and pedestrians on the road want to break their souls." The rain scene also needs the cooperation of the terrain. In some mountainous areas with large terrain ups and downs, the hazy beauty of the rain scene is more colorful and diverse.

(2) Cloud and fog scene

The clouds in the mountains are steaming and foggy, changing and rolling, which has always been a very attractive scenic spot. The so-called "mountains without clouds are not beautiful." Huangshan Sea of Clouds is one of the four wonders. The clouds in Lushan Waterfall are "intoxicating, like sheep and puffs, like the sea", which is wonderful. Cangshan jade belt cloud, Sanqingshan ringing cloud, Taishan sea of clouds and jade plate are all wonders.

Clouds and fog scenes often give people a wonderful feeling of being in a fairy position and flying high. This phenomenon is the most common in mountainous areas, mainly caused by the changeable mountain climate.

(3) Ice and snow scenery

The combination of snow and other natural landscapes can form a unique snow and ice scenery. Snow is a symbol of purity, and snow scenes often dress up the world as a pure and selfless world. Since ancient times, ice and snow scenery has been the content of people's tireless tourism activities. There are many scenic spots named after snow in the tourist resources area, such as "Pinggang Snow" in Jiuhua Mountain, "Several Houses Clear Snow" in Songshan Mountain, "West Mountain Clear Snow" in Yanjing, and "West Lake Canxue" in ten scenic spots, all of which are famous snow scenes, showing the position of snow in landscape construction. Ski resorts have been built in many places with rich ice and snow resources in the world, integrating sightseeing and sports, and more and more fans are coming. The Ice and Snow Festival in Harbin, China is the most attractive tourist project in this area.

(4) Xia Jing

Xiaxia is the oblique light of the sun and the moon, which makes the clouds appear red, orange and yellow through air dispersion. It often appears at sunrise or sunset, and is often accompanied by mountain water vapor and clouds. The main forms are sunrise, sunset, rosy clouds and fog clouds. This kind of scenery changes quickly and is rich in colors, which is very attractive to tourists. Scenic spots named after Xia Jing, such as "Sunset at Daiding, Mount Tai", "Yu Xia Solan" in Dongqian Lake, Zhejiang, and "Watching the Summer Flowing" in Pengze, Jiangxi, etc.

(5) Sun, Moon and Scenery

In essence, the scenery of the sun and the moon belongs to an astronomical tourism resource. However, because the viewing of the sun and moon scenery is closely related to climate, meteorology, seasons and geographical environment, compared with other astronomical tourism resources, its landscape has strong regularity, short period and simple viewing means, so it is more appropriate to describe it with meteorological tourism resources.

Sun and moon scenery includes sunrise, sunset, full moon and waning moon. Visitors to the mountains and beaches hope to see the sunrise and sunset. Some famous mountains have formed fixed viewing spots, such as the viewing peak of Mount Tai, the cold slope of Mount Lushan, the Cuiping Building of Mount Huangshan and the Jinding of Mount Emei. Tourists often take a Dai Yue plane and arrive at the above places before sunrise or sunset. The Rising Sun is one of the wonders of Mount Tai, and its popularity is extremely high. The sunrise and sunset scenery of Lushan Mountain is also magnificent, which is unique because of the Poyang Lake as the background. Sunny weather and partly cloudy weather are the best days to watch the sun, so you need to know the weather and watch the time, otherwise you will trudge in vain.

The full moon symbolizes perfection and is deeply loved by everyone, such as the "Autumn Moon on the Lake", one of the ten scenic spots in the West Lake. In addition, the scenes of the sun and the moon are often accompanied by summer scenes, making the sunrise and sunset scenes more colorful.

(6) fantasy.

Buddha's light and mirage, because of their similar formation mechanism and imaging properties, can be called illusion. Both are formed by the refraction or reflection of solar rays by atmospheric molecules or water vapor molecules. The landscapes formed are all virtual images, giving people a mysterious and strange feeling, but the areas where they appear are quite different. Buddha's light is a special optical phenomenon of mountain peaks. Mirages are common over bays, deserts, rivers and lakes, and sometimes they may occur at the top of mountains.

1. Buddha light landscape

Buddha's light is also called Bao Guang. Lushan Mountain, Emei Mountain, Taishan Mountain and Huangshan Mountain are all famous mountains for observing Buddha's light. Jinding Buddha Light in Emei is one of the ten scenic spots in Emei. On a calm and sunny afternoon, when the sun shines through the clouds, a seven-color halo centered on the viewer's head will appear on the golden dome. "The aura moves with people and the figure is in the ring." The scenery is strange and beautiful beyond description. The Buddha's light in Lushan Mountain is similar to that in Emei Mountain. When the small Tianchi Lake is full of fog, colorful auras will appear on the cloud screen and fog wall opposite the sun. The appearance of Buddha's light is an optical phenomenon caused by the refraction and diffraction of light by water droplets in the cloud. However, due to the different environmental conditions in different mountains, the appearance times and aesthetic feeling of Buddha's light are also different. Mount Emei has the most cloudy days, the highest humidity and the lowest wind speed, so it has the highest frequency and is also the most beautiful. Buddha's light appears seven or eight times a year in Mount Tai, while Mount Emei Jinding can see it seventy or eighty times a year.

2. A mirage

A mirage is an illusion that the air density changes in the vertical direction, resulting in refraction and total reflection, which leads to distant ground scenery appearing in the air or above the sea. (Meng Qian's pen talks) Cloud: "When you are in the sea of Dengzhou, there are clouds, such as palaces, terraces, city walls, figures, chariots and horses, and crowns, which are vivid in your mind and are called Haicheng." It is also said that the stork, one of the nine children born to the dragon, can exhale as a building, so it is called a mirage. Penglai Pavilion by the sea in Shandong Province is the most famous place to watch a mirage. Visitors standing in front of the pavilion, staring at the foggy sea, will see all kinds of hallucinations described in (Meng Qian Bi Tan). From recessive to dominant, from dominant to recessive, lasting for several minutes to several minutes. In addition, the five old peaks of Lushan Mountain can occasionally see this spectacle.

(7) Extremely bright future

Extreme scene refers to a gorgeous and magnificent color light image appearing at high altitude in high latitudes, which generally appears in the form of strips, arcs, curtains or radiations. It is mostly yellow-green when it is bright, generally white when it is weak, sometimes red, blue, gray, purple, or both. It is a luminous phenomenon that high-speed charged particles emitted by the sun excite high-level air molecules or atoms. These charged particles are deflected near the north and south poles due to the earth's magnetic field, forming "Northern Lights" and "Southern Lights" respectively. The Northern Lights appear at a distance of 22-27 degrees from the earth's magnetic pole, and generally pass through a circular zone in northern Alaska, northern Canada, southern Iceland, northern Norway, southern Novosibirsk Island and southern Novosibirsk Islands. Aurora can be seen for 2/3 days (245 days) every year. Aurora can also be seen in Mohe area of Heilongjiang and Altai area of Xinjiang.

(eight) other meteorological tourism resources.

In addition to the above-mentioned meteorological tourism resources, there are also some meteorological tourism resources that can only appear under specific geographical conditions in China, such as rime scenery, rime scenery, "Xiaguan wind" and so on.

Rime, also known as tree hanging, is a white, soft condensate of water droplets formed on branches, wires and other things in cold weather. This water drop is much smaller than the falling raindrops, and it is actually a water drop that constitutes a cloud. There are many gaps between the condensation of these small water droplets in the rime, so they are opaque white. The distribution characteristics of rime in China are: more mountains than plains, more wet areas than dry areas, and more north than south. Rime most often occurs in Jilin Province. Due to the low temperature, southerly wind and high air humidity, and the influence of water discharge from hydropower station, white and cold rims are often formed on roadside trees under Songhua Lake in Jilin City, like white silver chains on wicker and white chrysanthemums on pine needles, with different postures. Rime in Jilin has many colors and dense distribution, which appears for many days. Known as the "tree hanging in the river".

Rime is a transparent or translucent ice layer, which is formed by freezing small raindrops on objects. The appearance of glaze must be caused by the inversion of low-level air temperature. From the raindrops falling in the air with the temperature above zero in the upper air to the air with the temperature below zero in the lower air, they are all in a supercooled state. The supercooled water droplets adhere to the surface of cold objects and immediately freeze into rime. When the glaze density is small, it is a turbid and dull ice layer; When the density is high, it becomes transparent ice. Rime is more distributed in mountainous areas than in plain areas, more in humid areas than in arid areas, but more in south than in north, contrary to rime. The place with the most rime days in China is Mount Emei, with 135 days per year (Mount Emei has 142 days of rime). Lushan Mountain is also famous for its rainy weather. When winter is warm, the green pine, cypress, bamboo and fir are all wrapped in silver, which is called the glass world.

"Xiaguan Wind" is one of the four scenic spots in Dali, China, which appears every autumn and winter. This kind of scenery can only be felt but not watched, and it is mostly used to set off other tourism resources. The formation of wonders is due to the fact that the air pressure on the west side of Cangshan Mountain is higher than that on the east foot, cold air flows over the ridge or low-lying place of Cangshan Mountain and sinks in the past, while the warm and humid air on the east side of Erhai Lake rises, resulting in directional wind. This wind is an important factor in the formation of Dali's natural landscape.
