摘　　要：Filtering technique, extended empirical orthogonal function (EEOF), spectrum distribution function and correla- tion analysis have been employed to study the relationship between arctic ice cover (AIC) and monthly mean tempera- ture and precipitation in China. The function of power spectrum density shows that not only a semi-annual and an an- nual oscillation but also a quasi-biennial oscillation can be found in AIC area index series, especially in June, September and November. During the period of analysis, it can also be found that there exists a good correlation between the El Nino events and the AIC area index. An analysis on the EEOF of AIC and the temperature over China exhibits some significant temporal-spatial patterns and a better time-lag interrelationship between them. The results from the correla- tion analysis indicate that the variation of AIC area has a significant influence on the temperature and precipitation in subsequent months over China. In addition, it experiences a quasi-biennial low-frequency oscillation and displays to certain extent some features of propagation.Filtering technique, extended empirical orthogonal function (EEOF), spectrum distribution function and correla- tion analysis have been employed to study the relationship between arctic ice cover (AIC) and monthly mean tempera- ture and precipitation in China.
