Abstract: Based on review of research results in changes in climate extremes under the background of global warming in the world, this paper summarizes climate change in China’s major meteorological disasters which are closely related to climate extremes. It is indicated that in eastern Northeast China, North China, eastern Northwest China, precipitation totals and frequency have decreased at the same time, and drought has become more serious. In the Yangtze River valley, however, flood opportunities have increased due to the increase of intense precipitation events. One of the most significant changes in disasters is due to reduction of frost days. Though frequency in duststorms in China shows a decrease trend, it has increased recently mainly due to the impact of persistent drought in northern China since 1998.
