摘要
This paper reviews recent studies on extreme high temperatures in China during summer. The focus is on the variation in extreme heat and tropical nights（i.e. high temperature at night）, and the factors of influence. Potential research topics in the future are also discussed.
本文回顾了中国夏季高温研究的近期进展,重点关注极端高温和"热带夜"(即夜间高温)的变化规律及其影响因子。文中讨论了最近几十年中国高温频率的长期趋势和年代际变化,指出高温频率的变化规律存在时间和空间差异。文中重点论述了环流、海温、下垫面等因子对高温天气的影响,并将极端高温与热带夜进行比较,指出两种高温的发生机制明显不同。此外,文中还对未来的可能研究方向做了探讨。
