Daily and annual variation characteristics and geographical distribution characteristics of temperature

The daily and annual variation characteristics and geographical distribution characteristics of temperature are as follows:

The daily variation of temperature is the highest in the afternoon 14, and the lowest before and after sunrise in the morning, showing a wavy distribution. The annual variation is characterized by small annual variation of temperature in low latitudes, large annual variation of temperature in temperate cold regions, the highest land temperature in July in the northern hemisphere, and the lowest 1, while the receiving latitude in the southern hemisphere is opposite.

In meteorology, the physical quantity representing the degree of air heat and cold is called temperature, which is referred to as temperature for short. The international standard unit for temperature measurement is Celsius (℃).

The temperature mentioned in the weather forecast refers to the air temperature measured in the open air without direct sunlight (usually measured by blinds). The highest temperature is the highest temperature in a day, generally appearing in14-15; The lowest temperature is the lowest temperature in a day, usually before sunrise.

Definition:

The temperature mentioned in the weather forecast was measured on the thermometer in the louver box 1.5 meters above the ground of the observation site. Because the thermometer keeps good ventilation and avoids direct sunlight, it is representative. The difference of temperature is one of the main factors that cause the difference between natural landscape and our living environment, which is closely related to our life.

Temperature records can characterize the thermal characteristics of a place, which is indispensable in both theoretical research and the application of national defense and economic construction.

Temperature is one of the conventional measurement elements in ground meteorological observation. The temperature has a fixed temperature (the basic station observes four times a day, and the four hours are 02, 08, 14 and 20 respectively; According to the actual situation, some stations observe three times a day, at 08: 00, 14 and 20: 00 respectively. Reference station observation 24 times a day), as well as the daily maximum and daily minimum temperature.

Daily changes, the highest temperature is around 2 pm, and the lowest temperature is around sunrise. The annual change shows that it is the hottest in July, the coldest in June, the hottest in August and the coldest in February in the northern hemisphere in 65438+ 10. The southern hemisphere is opposite to the northern hemisphere.
