Abstract:
      Analysis was made of 1957—2009 meteorological data (temperature and rainfall) from Shaanxi Meteorological Administration and 2001—2009 Pyrus bretschneideri Rehd phonological observation date from Meteorological Service Station for Economic Crops. The results show that, the temperature rise in Binxian in Weibei dryland had an extremely significant linear increase in last 53 years, and the annual average temperature increased by 0.178℃/10a, while the precipitation had a tendency to decrease, and the annual average rainfall decreased by 8.57 mm/10a. The climate in Binxian tend to warming and drying. The main factor affecting phenological changes was temperature. With climate wa rming, the phenophase before maturity was advanced, the time to mature became shorter, and the deciduous period postponed, which led the whole growth period getting longer. Climate warming and drying increased the heat Pyrus bretschneideri Rehd needed for growth, and decreased the cold threaten in spring florescence. July to August was the period when Pyrus bretschneideri Rehd required much water, since the rainfall at this period reduced, we should notice adding water irrigation.
