- Abstract:
-
Based on daily maximum and minimum temperature at 8 meteorological stations above 1 500 m in the Chinese Tianshan Mountains observed by the China Meteorological Administration from 1960 to 2012, the spatial and temporal variation characteristics of extreme temperature events were analyzed by the methods of linear regression, Mann-Kendall, Morlet wavelet, factor analysis and correlation analysis. Nine indices of extreme temperature were studied. The results are as follows. (1) The occurrence of cold days, cold nights, ice days, frost days and extreme cold days have significantly decreased by -0.70, -2.36, -1.00, -5.14, -1.12 days/decade, respectively. Meanwhile, the occurrence of warm days, warm nights and growing season length show significant increase at rates of 0.87, 2.70, 4.03 days/decade, respectively; the tendency rate of diurnal temperature range is -0.34 days/decade, respectively. (2) The warming trend of warm night is significantly larger than cold night, and the warming trend of warm (cold) night days are obviously larger than the warm (cold) days. (3) From the point of spatial distribution, the increase or decrease trend of extreme temperature shows obvious difference. (4) Each extreme temperature index in Tianshan Mountain from 53 a shows significantly different periodicity change in certain time series. (5) The factor analysis demonstrates that the extreme temperature indices are closely correlated with each other except diurnal temperature range.
