Based on the tropical cyclone data of United States Joint Typhoon Center, this paper analyses characteristics temporal and spatial changes cyclones that landed in China from 1951 to 2015. The conclusions are as follows: (1) frequency landings showed a slow upward trend early 1990s, downward late 1990s In 1988, it changed low period high period.

The first field cases of leptospirosis in calves due to Leptospira pomona (now L. interrogans serovar ...

The influence of climatic factors on the efficiency production activities in agriculture is shown example Udmurtia. patterns changes main affecting yield grain crops, such as amount precipitation and temperature regime air during growing season plants associated generalizing hydrothermal coefficient for period from 1951 to 2020, are revealed. During study period, determined yields by an average...

By using instrumental surface air pressure (SAP) records for 1885–2017 at Hong Kong (HK) station, SAP data 1951–2016 66 stations over mainland China and modern tropical cyclones (TCs) of 1951–2017 derived from the Best Tracks (BT) dataset Northwest Pacific, an objective identification method (OIM) TCs is developed. Taking HK station as example, general distance detectable landing thresholds are...
