What is the low latitude plateau monsoon climate?

Low latitude plateau monsoon climate, due to different altitudes, has six climatic zones: south subtropical zone, middle subtropical zone, north subtropical zone, warm and humid zone, middle temperate zone and cold and humid zone. The temperature decreases with the elevation, which has the characteristics of hot valley, warm dam area, Liangshan area and cold mountain, and is suitable for the growth of different plants.

Related characteristic areas: Yunnan, Guizhou, etc.

Climatic characteristics of low latitude plateau monsoon;

(1) The temperature difference among the four seasons is small.

Close to the Tropic of Cancer, the solar radiation angle is large, and the variation range is small, resulting in a small annual temperature difference, and the climate characteristics of the four seasons are not obvious. "The qi of the four seasons is often like early spring, with cold ending and summer ending in temperature", and the temperature difference between the four seasons is not big;

(2) The wet and dry seasons are distinct.

It is dry in winter and rainy in summer. In winter (165438+1October to April of the following year), the rainfall in dry season only accounts for 5- 15% of the annual rainfall, and in summer (5-65438+1October), the rainfall in rainy season accounts for 85-95% of the annual rainfall.

(3) The vertical difference is significant.

The terrain is complex, the altitude difference is great, and the vertical difference of climate is obvious. The temperature decreases with the elevation, and the rainfall increases with the elevation. The valley is hot, the dam area is warm, the mountain area is cool, the mountain area is cold and the three-dimensional climate is obvious.

(4) There are many meteorological disasters

Due to the instability of monsoon circulation and the influence of different weather systems, there are many meteorological disasters, such as drought, low temperature, flood, frost, hail and strong wind.
