Abstract:Out of the 76 sites’ daily temperature data in 1961-2009 in Hubei Province, the 33 sites were chosen as a research object by homogenization test. The occurrence frequency of extreme high temperature in Hubei Province, intensity changes and response to the regional warming were analyzed. The results show that, the frequency of extreme high temperature is correlated well with the altitude, and that frequency of extreme high temperature displays decreasing in east and west directions and increasing in central. The spatial distribution in the frequency of extreme high temperature shows better consistency, and extreme high temperature events are prone to take place in Jianghan Plain and its northeast. The frequency of extreme high temperature events is positively responding to the summer mean temperature, and in relation to the western, the northeast response is more significant.
