Multi-patterns of climate hazards, include rainstorm and flood, tornados, drought, snowstorm, low temperature and frost, sand storm, polluted air and acid rain, etc. China has multi climate patterns from tropical south to cold north, and high land climate. Climate hazards have multi-patterns. Great losses. It is estimated the population influenced by abnormal climate and cimate affairs is above 0.6 billion, two third of the total population in China, half of agricultural land, and it is estimated the total economic loss directly caused by climate is about 3-6% of the total GDP, that might be USD 10 billion . Sudden climate disasters, e.g. super-typhoon coexists with slow impact disaster, like drought Exists in different areas in China. and it shows different main climate threats in different areas, e.g. coastal area and inside drought area. that shows climate much a local issue, and an increasing significance for regional integrated sustainable development with climate factors. Climate is an increasing factor associates with national public safety. climate change is one factor of non-traditonal public safety, and have close relations with energy, food, health, carrying capacity, etc. Periodical Climate Threats, spring for gale, sandstorm in the north, flood for rain season, drought and overheat in the summer, and super typhoon in summer and autumn, and in the winter and spring, frost, low temperature and snow storm. Actually different area have is cycle of climate hazards. Climate is an increasing global issue. the cross-boundary pollution, and the threat of global warming to Chinese coastal area, and the common climate threat facing asia-pacific rim An rapid urbanization process and its implications for climate Affairs management.
