Based on the radiosonde data observed at 14 stations in Southwest China from 1960 to 2010, as well as the corresponding surface air temperature, the long-term change of free-air 0°C isotherm height in Southwest China and the relationships between
surface air temperature and 0°C isotherm height are discussed. The results indicated that the two main regimes influencing the spatial patterns of 0°C isotherm height in Southwest China are latitude and huge massif. Generally, the increasing trend can

PnET-CN model describes the biogeochemical cycles of carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) and can assist in estimating carbon sequestration potential. For validation of PnET-CN, data from coniferous forest plantations in southern China was used. The results
obtained from the validation test revealed that PnET-CN model can be used to simulate carbon sequestration of planted coniferous forests in southern China to a high level of precision. Sensitivity analysis suggests that great care should be taken
Based on the daily data of temperature and precipitation of 108 meteorological stations in Southwest China from 1960 to 2009, the AA. calculate the monthly and yearly surface humid indexes, as well as the extreme drought frequency. According

Based on the glacier area variation records in the typical regions of China monitored by remote sensing, as well as the meteorological data of air temperature and precipitation from 139 stations and the 0°C isotherm height from 28 stations
, the glacier area shrinkage in China and its climatic background in the past half century was discussed. The area-weighted shrinking rate of glacier and the interpolated annual percentage of area changes (APAC) of glacier were calculated since 1960. The retreat
