What are the climatic characteristics of the main topography and location of Wutai Mountain?

Wutai Mountain is located in Wutai County, Xinzhou City, Shanxi Province, ranking first among the four famous Buddhist mountains in China. It is said that Manjusri Bodhisattva is a place of practice.

Shanxi, where Wutai Mountain is located, is located in the Loess Plateau, with dry land and sparse trees. The whole world in the field of vision is khaki, which is called the golden world. Wutai Mountain belongs to the northern end of Taihang Mountain System, and stretches for more than 500 miles in Xinzhou City, including Wutai County, Fan Shi, Daixian County, Yuanping City and Dingxiang County. It consists of a series of peaks between 38 50' ~ 39 05' north latitude and113 29' ~113 44' east longitude. Among them, five peaks are magnificent and surrounded by mountains. Fiona Fang is 250 kilometers long with a total area of 592.88 square kilometers.

Wutai Mountain is the key area of geological research in China, with complete and rich strata, especially the typical and peculiar Precambrian strata. Most of the strata in Wutai Mountain are named after the mountains, waters and villages in this area, which occupies an important position in the field of geology.

Wutai Mountain is composed of ancient crystalline rocks, with deep cuts in the north, towering five peaks and flat peaks, so it is called Wutai: Wanghaishan in Dongtai, GuaYue Feng in the west, Jinxiu Peak in the south, Yedou Peak in the north and Cuiyan Peak in the middle. Outside the five peaks, it is called outside Taiwan, and inside the five peaks, it is called inside Taiwan, with Taihuai Town as the center. Wutai has a circumference of about 250 kilometers and a total area of 2,837 square kilometers. Among the five stations, Beitai is the highest, and the top of Beitai is 306 1. 1 m above sea level, which is known as the "roof of North China". The climate in the mountains is cold, there is ice at the top of the platform all year round, and the weather is cool in midsummer, so it is also called Liang Qingshan, which is a summer resort. The natural vegetation of Wutai Mountain is mainly grassland, which is composed of meadow, grassland and shrub. This is an excellent summer pasture.

Wutai Mountain is a famous national geological park with ancient geology and peculiar landforms. Wutai Mountain is located in the hinterland of North China mainland, continuous with Hengshan-Taihang Mountain, with a relative height difference of more than 2400 meters. It exposes the strata and geological structures at different levels of the earth's crust in a large area, and perfectly shows the geological structure and composition of Chinese mainland basement. It is the highest mountain range composed of paleostrata known in the world more than 2.5 billion years ago. Wutai Mountain experienced Tie Bao Movement, Taihuai Movement, Wutai Movement and Yanshan Movement in the long process of earth evolution, and formed Wutai Uplift, which consists of Wutai Group greenschist and Doucun slate. It has a high level of ancient leveling, well-developed glacier landform, unique alpine meadow landscape, Quaternary glaciers and huge.

Climatic characteristics:

Wutai Mountain has a cold climate, also known as "Liang Qingshan". Although it is at the same latitude as Beijing, its climate characteristics are similar to that of Daxing 'anling in the northeast of China. The annual average temperature is MINUS 4 degrees, the hottest in July and August are 9.5 degrees and 8.5 degrees respectively, the coldest in June is 5438+ 10, and the average temperature is MINUS 18.8 degrees. Taihuai area enters spring one month earlier than the top of the platform and autumn one month later. The temperature difference is about 6 degrees. The annual average temperature is 2-3 degrees, the lowest temperature is MINUS 30 degrees, and the highest temperature is 30 degrees. In summer, the clouds in the air in Taihuai area are low, the humidity is high and it often rains.

Wutai Mountain area is humid in summer and often rains. Before April and after 1 1, highways with high clouds may be blocked by snow and difficult to pass. Wutai Mountain in winter is ice and snow, cold, quiet and beautiful, completely different from other seasons, full of another style, although there will be storms and heavy snow from time to time.

It can be said that Wutai Mountain's unique and complete geological structure, stratigraphic profile, paleontological fossil remains, Cenozoic planation plane and periglacial landforms completely record the geological evolution history of the earth from the late Neoarchean to the Paleoproterozoic, which has the significance and comparative value of worldwide geological structure and chronostratigraphic division. It is the best record for the global geological science community to study the early evolution of the earth and the early plate collision orogeny process, and it is a typical example of the comparative study of global crustal evolution, paleoenvironment and biological evolution. Therefore, Wutai Mountain is well-deserved as "geological museum of China".

The lowest point of Wutai Mountain is only 624 meters above sea level, and the highest point is 306 1. 1 meter above sea level, which is the highest peak in Shanxi Province and is known as the "roof of Shanxi". The top of the platform is vast, with overlapping mountains and staggered peaks, and it is tall and majestic. Nature has created many unique landscapes for it.
