The continent with the widest distribution of monsoon climate is
The continent with the widest distribution is Asia. The main causes of monsoons and the areas they affect are different, so their corresponding atmospheric circulation and climate characteristics will also have different performances. According to the areas where monsoons prevail and the reasons for their occurrence, the global monsoons can be divided into different monsoon climate zones, and these monsoon climate zones have their own climate characteristics.
The continent with the widest distribution of monsoon climate is [ ]
A. Asia
B. North America
C. Europe
D. Oceania
Answer: A Monsoon climate characteristics of China
① The dry and wet seasons are obvious and the four seasons are distinct. In winter, controlled by the northerly monsoon from high latitudes, the climate is dry, cold and windy. In summer, mainly affected by the southerly airflow from the ocean, the climate is hot, humid and rainy. The transition season is the interaction of these two types of controlled airflow, with weather changing from cold to hot, sunny to rainy.
②The rainy season starts and ends with obvious regularity. It's early in the south, late in the north, early in the east, and late in the west. The rainy season ends early in the north, late in the south, early in the east, and late in the west.
③ Due to the influence of the monsoon, it is rainy in the east coast, the west is drought and rainless, and the south is wetter than the north. The amount and sooner or later of monsoon rains will have a profound impact on agricultural production, and may even cause widespread floods and droughts.
④ Northern China has dry and cold winters and hot and humid summers, and the annual and diurnal temperature changes are greater than those in the south. There is a big difference in temperature and humidity between the north and south of China, and the difference is even greater in winter than in summer.
⑤ In winter, the temperature in eastern China is lower than that in other parts of the world at the same latitude. For example, the average January temperature in Beijing is 4 to 10°C lower than that in New York in the United States and Bursa in Greece at the same latitude; The temperature in other areas is about 10℃ lower. The temperature in summer is relatively high, but not as big as the difference in winter.
