What is the coldest place in China? What is the coldest place in Russia?
Genhe city is a county-level city in Hulunbeier, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. In Mongolian, it is the homonym of "Gegen Gaole", which means "clear and transparent river". Located on the western slope of the northern section of Daxing 'anling Mountains in the north of Hulunbeier City, the geographical coordinates are12012' ~122 55' and 50 20' ~ 52 30' north latitude, making it one of the cities with the highest latitude in China.
Genhe city is the coldest city in China, with an annual average temperature of -5.3℃ and an extremely low temperature of -58℃, and the annual freezing period exceeds 2 10 days. It is called "China Cold Pole".
Yakutsk is the coldest city in the world with a population of over 250,000. Located 250 miles south of the Arctic Circle, it can reach MINUS 25 degrees Fahrenheit in winter, but fortunately it can reach MINUS 60 degrees. The distance from Moscow to Yakutsk is 4888 kilometers.
Yakutsk has two districts, October District and Yaroslavski District, with a population of 220,000. Most of the residents are Yakutsk. Yakutsk is called "Ice City" because it is built on permafrost.
Extended data:
Genhe city's climate belongs to the humid forest climate of cold temperate zone, which has some characteristics of continental monsoon climate. It is characterized by cold and humidity, long winter and short summer, and spring and autumn are connected, with an average frost-free period of 90 days.
The annual average temperature is -5.3℃, 1 month average temperature is close to -30℃, the extreme minimum temperature recorded by county-level weather stations is -5 1.5 с, the extreme low temperature recorded by weather stations is -58℃, and the average temperature in July is 18 ~ 20℃, but it has also appeared 30℃.
The annual temperature is 47.4℃, the daily range is 20℃, and the freezing period is more than 2 10 days. Frozen soil is spread all over the country, and frozen soil in some areas is below 30 cm. Genhe city is not the northernmost county in China, but its altitude is higher than Mohe, so its temperature is lower than Mohe, the "Arctic of China".
Yakutsk has a continental climate with long and cold winters. 1 month average temperature -38.6℃, extreme minimum temperature -64.4℃. Summer is short and warm. The average temperature in July is 19.5℃, the extreme maximum temperature is 38.4℃, and the absolute temperature difference exceeds 100℃. It is the most typical continental climate city in the world.
The annual average precipitation is 239 mm, and the annual average temperature is -8 degrees Celsius. Because the annual average temperature is below -5 degrees Celsius, permafrost will be formed for many years, so Yakutsk is built on permafrost, and only the permafrost on the ground 1.2m can melt in midsummer. Yakutsk is built on rock-solid permafrost, but summer is also a nightmare for local buildings.
The active soil layer with surface thickness of1.2m is frozen in winter and melted in summer, so the buildings built by traditional methods are unreliable. The stake must be deeply embedded under the active soil layer, and the house should be built on the stake 1 m above the ground to prevent the land from melting and damaging the building.
In Siberia, half-buried wooden houses are everywhere. Russians call it "swimming in the thawing layer". Whether the ground temperature is 35 degrees above zero or 35 degrees below zero, 4 meters underground, it is 8 degrees below zero all year round.
