The Characteristics of Climate Change in Kyrgyzstan and Its Spatial Variability Analysis

【 Objective 】 Kyrgyzstan Republic is located in the northeast of central Asia, and in the western foot of Tianshan Mountains, bordering with Akesu area in Xinjiang. The study of the spatial characteristics of climate change and spatial variability is of great significance for understanding the changes of weather and environment in Central Asia, and for the evolution of the meteorological and environmental changes in Xinjiang.【 Method 】Based on the 1971-2000 of rainfall and temperature data by CRU (Climatic Research Unit) of the East Anglia University in the UK, and combining international exchange data from the nine climate stations of WMO (World Metrological Organization) in the Kyrgyzstan, this project analyzed the characteristics of climate change nearly 30 years in Kyrgyzstan.【 Result 】The results show that the annual total precipitation in Kyrgyzstan is increasing, and the total precipitation is relatively small in the southeast; The precipitation in the southwest and Tajikistan is relatively large, the seasonal difference is obvious, the precipitation in spring and winter is the most, and in the summer it is relatively small, and the precipitation characteristics are different from those in Xinjiang, presenting "Mediterranean type climate" with the annual average temperatures less than 10 ℃. The north and west are hot and the south and east are cold. The trend of warming in winter is obvious but is decreasing in spring; in summer time, the change is small and in fall, there is nearly no change. The annual range of temperature is greater than the surrounding countries, with a warming trend, but the annual range of temperature decreased.【 Conclusion 】Compared with Xinjiang that is also located in Central Asia, Kyrgyzstan precipitation and temperature vary greatly, that is, the rainfall is quite high with significant regional difference.
