China's immense size encompasses nearly every climate zone on Earth, from the tropical south to the subarctic northeast, and from the moisture-rich Pacific coast to the arid deserts of Central Asia. The East Asian monsoon system is the dominant weather driver, bringing warm, moist air from the Pacific and Indian Oceans in summer and cold, dry air from the Siberian interior in winter. This creates dramatic seasonal reversals across much of the country.
