Because Guizhou is located in a zone where cold and warm air often meet, what unique weather has been formed by special terrain conditions?

Guizhou is located in the zone where cold and warm air often meet, and the special terrain conditions make it a unique weather with more rain and less sunshine. The annual sunshine hours are mostly 800- 1600 hours.

Guizhou is located in the southwest of China, in the transitional zone between subtropical zone and south subtropical zone. Because it is located between mountains and basins, the mountains are high and the valleys are deep, and the climate is influenced by many factors, forming a unique climate, which is mainly manifested in the special climate of more rain and less sunshine.

I. Geographical and climatic characteristics:

Topographic factors: Guizhou has complex topography and many hills, forming a patchwork mountain landform. The altitude changes greatly and the terrain fluctuates greatly, which leads to obvious changes in gas temperature and rainfall in a short distance.

Geographical location: Guizhou is located between Yunnan, Sichuan, Hunan, Guangxi and other provinces, where cold and warm air meet frequently, which is easy to form precipitation and make the climate changeable. At the same time, it is close to the tropical ocean in Southeast Asia and is greatly influenced by the monsoon.

Humid climate: influenced by monsoon and topography, Guizhou has a humid climate and abundant rainfall. There is more precipitation in the whole year, concentrated in summer, which leads to wet and rainy climate.

Less sunshine hours: due to the heavy rain and thick clouds, the sunshine hours in Guizhou are relatively few, and the available sunshine hours in a year are about 800 ~ 1600 hours, which is relatively small.

Second, the impact and response:

Agricultural impact: abundant rainfall is beneficial to the growth of crops, but too much rainfall may also lead to floods and affect the growth and harvest of crops.

Ecological environment: rainy and humid, which is conducive to the growth of forest vegetation, but also easy to lead to natural disasters such as mudslides and landslides, posing a threat to the ecological environment.

Traffic and infrastructure construction: Rainy weather brings certain difficulties to the construction and maintenance of traffic and infrastructure, and easily leads to landslides, road collapse and other problems.

Tourism: More rain and less sunshine may affect the development of tourism, but it also adds mystery to Guizhou's unique natural landscape, such as karst landforms and karst caves.

Guizhou's rainy and insufficient sunshine are its unique climate characteristics, which bring some challenges to it, and also breed its rich and diverse natural landscape and unique ecological environment. Faced with such climatic conditions, Guizhou has continuously taken scientific and reasonable measures to adapt to climate change, protect the ecological environment and promote healthy economic and social development.
