Evaluating the Tourist Climate Comfortable Period of China in a Changing Climate by Dan-Dan Yu, Shan Li, Zhong-Yang Guo

“…Multidimensional climate indices are needed to evaluate climate for tourism, and previous studies in China have used the much criticized “climate index” with low resolution climate data. This study uses the Holiday Climate Index (HCI) and daily data from 775 weather stations to examine interregional differences in the tourist climate comfortable period (TCCP) across China and summarizes the spatiotemporal evolution of TCCP from 1981 to 2010 in a changing climate. …”
