The relative analysis between satellite snow cover of Qinghai-Tibet plateau, summer temperature, precipitation of east part of China

The variation of Qinghai-Tibet plateau´s snow cover are analysed using snow cover data of the Northern Hemisphere (1976-1983). On the basis of the analysed results, the authors discuss the relative relationship of snow cover of the Qinghai-Tibet plateau to summer temperature and the precipitation of eastern China. Some statistical results which are of value are obtained. The physical process of snow cover influencing the temperature, precipitation remain to be studied further
