The climate type of Beijing belongs to

The climate type of Beijing belongs to temperate monsoon climate.

Beijing, formerly known as Yanjing and Peiping, is the capital, municipality directly under the Central Government, national central city and megacity of People's Republic of China (PRC).

Beijing is located in the north of China, the north of North China Plain, Tianjin in the east and Hebei Province in the rest. Its center is located at116 20 ′ east longitude and 39 56 ′ north latitude. It is a world-famous ancient capital and a modern international city.

Beijing is high in the northwest and low in the southeast. The west, north and northeast are surrounded by mountains, and the southeast is a plain that slowly inclines to the Bohai Sea. The main rivers flowing through the territory are Yongding River, Chaobai River, North Canal and Juma River. Beijing's climate is a warm temperate semi-humid semi-arid monsoon climate, with high temperature and rainy summer, cold and dry winter and short spring and autumn.

The temperate monsoon climate (mid-latitude monsoon climate) is distributed on the east coast of the mid-latitude continent in the northern hemisphere, with an annual average temperature of not less than 0℃ and an annual accumulated temperature of 3200℃ ~ 4500℃. It is a transitional climate between subtropical zone and temperate zone, with high temperature and rainy summer, cold and dry winter and distinct four seasons.

Features:

1. High temperature and rainy in summer: In summer, the solar altitude angle increases, the days are long, the temperature is high, and the southeast monsoon blowing from the tropical ocean brings abundant precipitation.

2. It is cold and dry in winter: the lowest monthly average temperature is below 0℃, and it is cold in winter. The reason is: the latitude is high, close to the source of winter wind, the terrain is low and flat, and the west is high and the east is low, which weakens the winter wind.

The monsoon is extraordinary.

4. Summer and autumn are often affected by tropical cyclones.

The main disastrous weather brought by this climate are: winter and spring: cold wave (sandstorm, frost, white damage); Summer: Strong convective weather (thunderstorm, gale, hail).
