Based on the meteorological data from China meteorological data sharing service system

climate change of Weihe River basin and its regional difference from 1951 to 2007 were analyzed.Results showed that the annual maximum wind speed and the average wind speed presented a decreasing trend

but they have no significant change in recent years and were less than the average.The annual precipitation of Weihe River basin had no abrupt change

rising at the rates of 0.544

0.509

0.386

and 0.667 ℃/10 a

respectively.The rates were all far greater than the average global warming rate of 0.13 ℃/10 a in nearly 50 years

which indicates a great increase in the annual temperature.Number of sunshine hours in Weihe River basin showed different characteristics.The change of sunshine hours was also different in different regions.In the northeast

sunshine hours showed an increasing trend

but in other regions

showed a decreasing trend.Relative humidity of Weihe River basin showed an obvious decreasing trend.The climate change of Weihe River basin showed a warming and drying trend.
