A detailed comparison of climate between China and Japan.

The climate types in China mainly include:

Plateau alpine climate, temperate continental climate, temperate monsoon climate, subtropical monsoon humid climate, tropical monsoon climate.

Japan's climate types mainly include:

Temperate monsoon climate and subtropical monsoon humid climate.

Supplement:

China is a vast country with several different temperature zones from south to north, including tropical zone, subtropical zone, warm temperate zone, temperate zone and cold temperate zone. The main factors affecting China's climate are geographical latitude and solar radiation, land and sea position and ocean current, topography and atmospheric circulation. The seasonal changes of temperature and precipitation in China are obvious, and most areas are affected by monsoon, with four distinct seasons. Cold wave, typhoon and plum rain are important weather phenomena in China, and their formation and changes constitute the main signs of climate change in China.

The climate in China has three characteristics: obvious monsoon characteristics, obvious continental climate and diverse climate types. In winter, the temperature is generally low, hot in the south and cold in the north, and the temperature difference between the north and the south is large, exceeding 50 degrees Celsius. The main reasons are: the sun shines directly in the southern hemisphere in winter, and the northern hemisphere gets less solar energy; Latitude influence: winter winds prevail in winter. In summer, the temperature in most parts of the country (except the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau) is generally high, and the temperature difference between north and south is not large. The main reasons are as follows: in summer, the sun shines directly in the northern hemisphere, and the northern hemisphere gets more heat; Summer monsoon prevails in summer, and the temperature in most parts of China rises to the highest value; In summer, the higher the height of the sun, the higher the latitude and the longer the day, which slows down the difference between the north and the south in receiving solar light and heat. The coldest place in winter is Mohe County, Heilongjiang Province, and the hottest place in summer is Turpan, Xinjiang.

climate

Japan spans 25 degrees latitude, and the temperature difference between north and south is very significant. The plateaus of Hokkaido and Honshu belong to the sub-frigid zone, the native land belongs to the temperate zone, and the southern islands such as Okinawa belong to the subtropical zone. In addition, Japan's geographical position makes it influenced by the intersection of monsoon and ocean current, so it has four distinct seasons and abundant precipitation.

Japan can be divided into six climatic zones, namely:

The climate of Hokkaido

Hokkaido is not affected by plum rains, and the rainfall is less than that in other parts of Japan. Summer is short and cool; Winter is long and cold.

Japan's coastal climate

It covers the western coastal area of Honshu Island. Winter is controlled by Siberian high, and the northwest wind blows. At the same time, because the warm current in winter brings a lot of water vapor to the horse current passing through the Sea of Japan, it often snows heavily. There is less precipitation in summer, and sometimes there is abnormal high temperature due to foehn.

Central plateau climate

The typical inland climate is cool in Leng Xia in winter, with large temperature difference between winter and summer and between day and night, and less rainfall.

Pacific coastal climate

Including the east coast of Honshu, Shikoku and most parts of Kyushu. Influenced by the southeast monsoon in summer, there are many strong typhoons in Meiyu period. In winter, there is less snowfall.

Seto inland sea climate

Including parts of Yang Shan, Shikoku, Feng Jingen and Kyushu. The weather here is often sunny, with little rainfall and suffering from drought from time to time.

Climate of Nanxi Islands

The scope is Ryukyu Islands. It belongs to subtropical climate, with hot summer and warm winter. Rainstorm. Typhoons often strike in summer.

The precipitation in Japan is the highest in the world. The main reasons include winter snowfall in Japan's coastal areas; Continuous plum rains in June-July (May-June in Okinawa and Amami); And typhoons that landed in or near Japan from summer to autumn. The highest recorded temperature in Japan is 40.9 degrees, which was measured on August 16, 2007 in Kumagaya City, saitama and Tojima City, Gifu Prefecture. The lowest recorded temperature is -4 1 degree, which was 10+degree measured in Asahikawa, Hokkaido on October 25th.
