Types and characteristics of Fujian climate Introduce the types and characteristics of Fujian climate.

Fujian has a subtropical maritime monsoon climate. Climatic characteristics: influenced by the summer monsoon, the annual precipitation is 1400 mm-2000 mm, which is hot and rainy in summer and the rainy season is relatively long; Winter is warm and relatively dry, with an average monthly temperature of 1 5℃- 13℃. The terrain in Fujian Province is relatively complex and the climate is different. For example, the southeast coast of Fujian belongs to the tropical climate of South Asia, while the northeast, north and west of Fujian belong to the tropical climate of Central Asia, and the vertical differentiation of water and heat conditions in each climatic zone is also obvious.

The geographical location of Fujian

Fujian Province, referred to as "Fujian" for short, is the provincial administrative region of People's Republic of China (PRC). Fuzhou, the provincial capital, is located on the southeast coast of China, bordering Zhejiang Province in the northeast, Jiangxi Province in the northwest, Guangdong Province in the southwest and Taiwan Province Province across the Taiwan Province Strait in the southeast, with a total land area of 6,543,800 square kilometers.

Fujian Province, a transportation hub in the East China Sea and the South China Sea, is historically the starting point of the Maritime Silk Road and Zheng He's voyages to the West, and also the distribution center of maritime commerce.

Fujian topography

The mountains and hills in Fujian are towering and continuous, and valley basins are interspersed among them. Mountainous hills account for more than 80% of the total area of the province, and are known as "eight mountains, one water and one field". The terrain is generally high in the northwest and low in the southeast, and the cross section is slightly saddle-shaped. Due to the control of the Neocathaysian tectonic system, the mountainous areas in western and central Fujian and the mountainous areas in central Fujian were formed. The two mountains are separated by valleys and basins, with hills, terraces and coastal plains on the east coast.

What's the climate like in Fujian?

Fujian has a subtropical maritime monsoon climate, which is warm and humid. Fujian is near the Tropic of Cancer. Affected by monsoon circulation and topography, the accumulated temperature of 70%≥ 10℃ in the whole province is between 5000℃ and 7600℃, with abundant rainfall and sunshine. The annual average temperature 17 ~ 2 1℃ and the average rainfall 1400 ~ 2000.

What is the subtropical maritime monsoon climate?

Subtropical monsoon climate, also known as subtropical monsoon climate, is a mid-latitude monsoon climate type controlled alternately by tropical marine air mass and polar continental air mass, with obvious non-periodic changes in weather and seasonal changes in precipitation.

The subtropical monsoon climate is hot in summer and warm in winter, with four distinct seasons and developed monsoon. The average temperature in the hottest month is generally higher than 22 degrees Celsius, and the temperature in Leng Yue is between 0- 15 degrees Celsius. The annual precipitation is mostly 800- 1600 mm, and the precipitation in the second half of the year usually accounts for 70% of the whole year. It should be noted that the subtropical humid climate is similar to the subtropical monsoon climate, but it does not form a monsoon climate due to the differences in thermal properties between land and sea.

Subtropical monsoon climate appears on the east coast of subtropical continent, with latitude of 25-35, such as the area south of Huaihe River in Qinling Mountains and north of tropical monsoon climate in China. Some geoscientists also believe that Daba Mountain area is more suitable as the subtropical northern boundary of China than Qinling Mountain area. Japan and the southern part of the Korean peninsula also have subtropical monsoon climate distribution, but the monsoon climate in Japan and the Korean peninsula is influenced by the ocean, and its maritime characteristics are obvious.
