Temporal evolution of Ta a and b , Ts c and d , V0 e and f , and SH g and h in the CE-TP at 0000 LST/DJF left panels and 1200 LST/MAM right panels . The units of Ta and Ts are ℃, V0 m·s-1, and SH W·m-2. Curves with open circles are 71-station-averaged and closed circles are 37-station-averaged. V10 Ts Ta SH Decreased sensible heat flux over TP Slightly increased latent heat flux over TP Temporal evolution upper panel, in units of W·m-2 and spatial distribution lower panel, in units of W·m-2·decade-1 of the LVR of LH in four seasons over CE-TP during 1961-2003.

Summary Summary Asian Monsoon are formed due to the atmospheric thermal adaptation to Continental Scale “LOSECOD” forcing and certain kind of Local Scale Forcing 1961-2003, a striking climate warming is accompanied by the decreasing trends of the surface DTR; The change of cloud amount seems to be directly related to this change; Simulation results of two IPCC models suggest that, the recent climate warming over TP may be closely connected with the anthropogenic GHGs emissions; 1961-2003, Ts and Ta over the TP both get warmer, with the latter stronger than the former; V10 gets weaker? Surface sensible heating is reduced; Radiation cooling increased, not much change in latent heating? TP thermal forcing is reduced; Weekend TP thermal forcing contributes to the dry of Northern China. Summary for climate change over the TP Thank You!
