Abstract
Climate, as the natural environment on which human life depends, is intricately linked to human society. This paper focuses on the characteristics of temperature and its relationship with meteorological elements in China in the last 73 years. The data of this research is from NCEP/NCAR Reanalysis Monthly Means. This study adopts the Empirical Orthogonal Function (EOF) and Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) methods to study the surface temperature characteristics within China, and the synergistic variation between surface temperature and precipitable water content, wind field, and relative humidity in China. The results show that 1980s is a turning point for changes in surface temperature, precipitable water content, wind field, and relative humidity in China. Before 1980s, the temperature in China is low, while after this period, the temperature in China is high and China’s exposure to global warming has increased. Temperature is dominated by negative potential-phase oscillations with relative humidity and wind fields. In the north, temperature and precipitable water content have negative potential-phase oscillations, while temperature and precipitable water content have positive potential-phase oscillations in the south. In the central region of Xinjiang, temperature and precipitable water content have weak negative potential-phase oscillations, while temperature and wind field have positive potential-phase oscillations.
