Abstract
The present work investigates an analysis of Eco-Tourism Climate Resources in Xingwen, China based on the Comfort Index and Negative Air (Oxygen) Ion (“NAI” for short in this article) concentration. The daily temperature, precipitation, wind speed, sunshine hours, and relative humidity data of the Xingwen National Meteorological Station from 1999 to 2018, as well as the NAI data of Feiwu Cave station and Shoushan Lake station in Xingwen of 2018 were used in this study. Based on the analysis of the characteristics of basic meteorological elements, the index of climate comfort of human living environment and the NAI variation in Xingwen, the eco-tourism climate resources in this area were evaluated comprehensively. The results show that: The climate is mild, the precipitation is abundant and the seasonal variation trend of precipitation and heat is similar in the study area. The annual average temperature of this area is 17.8°C, the annual average precipitation is 1096 mm, the annual average precipitation days are 186 days, the annual average relative humidity is 81%, the annual average wind speed is 1.3 m/s, and the annual average sunshine hours are 999 h. The living environment comfort level reaches the “comfort” level for 6 months per year. In addition, the concentration of NAI in Xingwen remains at the highest level 7 throughout the year, and the rate of good air quality is extremely high. Overall, the study area has high-quality ecological climate resources that are conducive to the development of forest recuperation, leisure and vacation and other ecological tourism activities.

Summary
Temperature, sunshine, wind speed, relative humidity, rainfall, air freshness and other conditions have a comprehensive impact on the experience of tourists. The comfort index evaluates the comfortable feeling of human body in different climatic conditions. Considering the comprehensive effect of temperature, humidity, wind speed and other meteorological factors on human body, the general population’s feelings towards the external meteorological environment can be quantitatively described with an index. We selected the Index of climate comfort of human living environment for calculation, which is commonly used by the China Meteorological Administration in recent years. Xingwen has a long history and is the place where the ancient Bo people multiplied and eventually died out. It is an area where the Miao people in Sichuan Province are concentrated, with ethnic minorities accounting for 11% of the total population. Studying the suitability of eco-tourism climate resources in this area is of great significance for guiding tourists to travel, developing and improving tourism products, and expanding the health and tourism market
