What Are the Most Common Climate Problems?

The climate type is the natural conditions of the region, and is generally the result of a combination of factors such as latitude (direct sunlight and oblique), atmospheric circulation, sea and land location (monsoon), topography, and ocean current. It is divided into regions and types, and the local climate types are different.

1. Solar radiation :

Tropical desert climate :

It is hot, dry and rarely rains throughout the year.

Mediterranean climate :

It is hot and dry in summer and mild and rainy in winter.

Tropical (sparse) grassland climate:

High temperature throughout the year, divided into two seasons, dry and wet.

Tropical rain forest climate :

High temperature and rain throughout the year.

Tropical monsoon climate :

The temperature is high throughout the year, with two seasons of drought and rain .

Subtropical monsoon and subtropical humid climate:

It is hot and rainy in summer and mild and rainless in winter.

Temperate marine climate :

The continental climate of the sub-frigid zone is the main climate type of the sub-frigid zone, also known as the coniferous forest climate. This climate occurs between 50 ° and 65 ° north latitude, and is also called the sub-cold climate of coniferous forest. It is distributed in a strip shape and traverses North America and Eurasia. Specifically, most of North America from Alaska via Canada to Labrador and Newfoundland; Scandinavia (except South) west of Eurasia, via Finland and Western Russia (Southern border in Lenin From Geller-Gorky to Sverdlovsk) to eastern Russia (except for the south). The northern part is bounded by the 10 ° C isotherm of the hottest month. The climate in this area is mainly affected by polar ocean air masses and polar continental air masses, and is the source of polar continental air masses. In winter, there are many opportunities for Arctic air masses to invade; during the warm season, tropical continental air masses can sometimes penetrate. The main characteristics of this type of climate are: long and severe winter, with an average temperature of less than 0 ° C for 5 to 7 months each year, and severe cold weather of -50 ° C often occurs; summers are short and warm, and the average monthly temperature is above 10 ° C. It can reach 18 ° ~ 20 ° C, and the annual temperature difference is particularly large; the annual precipitation is generally 300 ~ 600 mm, mainly summer rain. Due to weak evaporation, high relative humidity.

Distribution: between 50 ° and 65 ° north latitude

Origin: affected by polar ocean air masses and polar continental air masses

In the mid-latitude plateau areas, such as the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and the Andes, the altitude is low and the year-round low temperature (the temperature drops by 0.6 degrees Celsius for every 100 meters rise from sea level), forming a plateau mountain climate. There are two most important characteristics of the plateau mountain climate: high altitude and low temperature.

Distribution: Plateau areas in mid-latitudes

Cause: High altitude, low temperature all year round

Climate type tropical monsoon

Including southern Taiwan Province, Leizhou Peninsula, Hainan Island, and Xishuangbanna. The annual accumulated temperature is> = 8000 , the average temperature of the coldest month is not lower than 15 , the annual extreme minimum temperature is not lower than 5 for many years, and the extreme minimum temperature is generally not lower than 0 . There is no frost all year round.

Climate Type Subtropical Monsoon

Most of South China and East China have this type of climate. The annual accumulated temperature is between 4500-8000 ° C, and the coldest monthly average temperature is 0--15 ° C. It is the transition zone between the subtropical zone and the temperate zone. The summer temperature is quite high (the average temperature of Hou is> = 25 ° C for at least 6 hours, (Ie 30 days) and winter temperatures are quite low.

Climate type temperate monsoon

North China has a climate of this type. The annual accumulated temperature is between 3000--4500 , the average temperature of the coldest month is -28--0 , and the average temperature in summer is still more than 22 . In recent years, due to climate warming and other reasons, high temperatures have frequently appeared in southern North China, but the average temperature still does not exceed 25 ° C.

Climate plateau mountain

China's Qinghai-Tibet Plateau belongs to this type of climate. The annual accumulated temperature is below 2000 ° C, the average daily temperature is below 10 ° C, and the hottest temperature is also below 5 ° C, or even below 0 ° C. The temperature range is large and the annual difference is small, but the solar radiation is strong and the sunshine is sufficient.

Climate type temperate continental

The broad temperate continental climate includes temperate desert climate, temperate steppe climate, and sub-frigate coniferous forest climate. The narrow concept excludes the humid one. Most inland areas north of 40 ° north latitude in China have a temperate continental climate. Precipitation in these areas is sparse, with annual precipitation between 300-500 millimeters. The daily temperature is relatively poor and the annual difference is very large, such as Xinjiang in China.

Climate type tropical rain forest

The Nansha Islands in China belong to this type of climate. The year is hot and rainy, and the rainfall is abundant. The average annual temperature is 28 to 30 degrees, and the annual rainfall is more than 2800 mm. ^[1]
