Climate differences between Australia and China.

Australia has a subtropical monsoon humid climate, and China has the most obvious monsoon climate.

Because of ocean currents, the eastern Australia, first of all, has a humid climate, which should be non-zonal. The first reason is the coastal wind, the second is the windward slope, and the third is the warm current along the coast. Secondly, the monsoon direction changes obviously in winter and summer, basically blowing back, with monsoon characteristics. Because it is not typical, it is monsoon. The third latitude is located near the tropic of Capricorn and has subtropical characteristics. Therefore, it is more appropriate to call it subtropical monsoon humid climate. On the other hand, the coast of Australia's west coast is cold, and the coast has a relatively dry climate. From the latitude position, the subtropical high just affects this area; From the analysis of factors affecting climate, atmospheric circulation is the most important factor. For any kind of climate, when analyzing its causes, I think it is inseparable from its atmospheric circulation.

The subtropical monsoon humid climate is rainy all year round and pleasant, which China does not have. There is no humid subtropical monsoon climate in China, and precipitation in most areas is concentrated in summer.

Many misinformed materials say that the national tree of Australia is eucalyptus and the national bird is Qin bird, which are all incorrect.

The Australian government didn't declare acacia as the national flower until August 1988. So far, there are no animals or birds as national symbols. ?
