Meteorological disasters in China include drought, flood, typhoon, ice storm, heavy fog and heavy snow etc The precipitation over North China had decreased and the flooding events over the Yangtze River valley had increased from 1980 to 2000. Meantime the intensity of landing typhoon over southern China was stronger than normal.
