Shanxi Province is located in the eastern edge of the Loess Plateau，from a social and cultural perspective，is the birthplace of the Yellow River civilization，historical period is China's political，economic and cultural prosperity of the land；geographic location from the natural point of view，China's many natural geographical boundaries collection area in the coastal areas to inland transition，plains to mountain plateau transition，the transition semi-humid to semi-arid forest to grassland transition，the transition zone agriculture to animal husbandry；view from the valley，including the Yellow River and the Haihe River Basin unit two；from geomorphic units look，including plateaus，mountains，basins，hills and other types；from the topography of view，is China's second，three ladder boundaries；view from the climate zone，continental monsoon climate is the main feature，as winter wind，summer wind channel，the impact is very significant，is a climate-sensitive and vulnerable areas. Spring and autumn are transitional seasons，if too strong winter wind forces，with the sloping terrain northwest to southeast，pouring down，can easily lead to cold，frost and low temperature cold climate anomalies occur. Statistics show that Shanxi arable land each year due to frost causes the affected area of 2%，second only to drought and hail damage. Frost temperature calamity great many records in historical documents. As in 1655，Linxian“April sixth（Gregorian calendar May 11）night snow three feet，branches to make pressure，no rain since March，near the city received only twelve points autumn grain，vegetables Chu were no riparian area”.April 20，1954，Shanxi Heavy frost，wheat，cotton，vegetables，fruit，etc. are freezing to death or severe frostbite，the province's 54 counties affected，affected an area of 1040 hectares of wheat，of which 400 acres of freezing.

Climate change caused by the natural disasters are the major issues facing the world today，is one of our social and economic sustainable development of the huge obstacles. In recent years，global warming has become the world's governments and the scientific community highly concerned about global issues，as a result of global warming caused by global climate anomalies such as droughts and floods. For cold weather events，such as disasters caused by frost cold，but did not arouse much attention. However，entering the 21^st century，but the cold weather events continue to occur. January 2008，occurred in a large area of southern China snow disaster；November 2009，the northern region experienced in 60 years in some areas of the hundred years of Blizzard；January 2011，again in most areas of southern China large-scale occurrence of freezing rain and snow disaster；January 2012 to late February early Eurasian arctic weather hit many countries，experiencing the coldest winter in recent years；December 2012，Russia，Ukraine，China，Mongolia and other northern countries once again suffered a rare cold. This series of disasters caused by droughts and floods affecting no less，not only affected crops，human life，property and serious socio-economic losses，but also for food，transport，water and energy security and so caused the crisis. These extreme cold weather events，so we had to re-understanding of climate warming，in this context should be concerned about cold weather events.

Extreme climate events triggered by climate change seriously undermined the economic and social development environment and conditions，endanger the safety of life and property.Scale of the disaster，the occurrence frequency range of hazards，the impact on the spread and man-made disasters and environmental disasters continue to appear，re-development，light mitigation widespread，disaster theory，procedures，rules and disaster prevention and mitigation，there are many studies weak links. Therefore，recognizing hazards，understand the process，to grasp its own rules，to control and mitigate future disasters，has become the face of a major academic reality. Development of anything has a certain historical regularity of Shanxi nearly six hundred years disasters research，a mechanism for identifying disaster，winter and summer monsoons abnormal activities such as disaster effect has important scientific significance；predicting the region's future disasters cold frost intensity，scope，time，carry out disaster prevention，disaster time delay，weaken disaster events scale，intensity and characteristics，to stop the spread of such disasters，to avoid the impact of disasters life production，lead to social unrest. Recognizing historical period frost cold disasters，the development of rules，and review the history of mankind and the lessons learned to fight disasters，for disaster prevention and mitigation，the relationship between man and nature norms，norms of human behavior，the protection of human living space，in accordance with the laws of nature production practices that guide human activities to promote the development of social production，has important practical significance.

This book reads as follows：

The first chapter，mainly on the natural and geographical environment of Shanxi，climatic characteristics and Holocene climate change.

The second chapter mainly elaborates the drought，flood，frost，snow and low temperature were the main meteorological disasters of the concept，type，influence factor and the temporal and spatial distribution characteristics of theShanxi disaster etc..

The third chapter mainly elaborates the research progress at home and abroad to climate change and meteorological disasters，significance of research，research review，research methods and research content.

The fourth chapter mainly for nearly six hundred years of drought and flood disasters inShanxi changes，extreme weather events，from 1470 to 2000 531 years of drought and flood series line analysis discussed.

The fifth chapter on the Ming Dynasty and the low temperature disaster grade division，spatial and temporal variation characteristics，causes and temperature，climate change and cold climate events are analyzed and discussed.

The sixth chapter of the Qing Dynasty and the low temperature disaster grade division，spatial and temporal variation characteristics，causes and temperature，climate change and cold climate events are analyzed and discussed.

The seventh chapter mainly for nearly 100 years，and the low temperature disaster under the background of global warming，the classification of temporal and spatial variation characteristics，causes and temperature，climate change and cold climate events are analyzed and discussed.

The eighth chapter mainly the effects of future climate warming on frost cold disasters，nearly thirty years China and Shanxi in the last ten years the actual and the low temperature disaster and its influence on the future and the low temperature disaster，and how to prevent and respond to disasters and the low temperature of crop damage are analyzed and discussed.

The ninth chapter mainly expounds the relationship between the ENSO event and climate inShanxi，the precipitation，temperature and meteorological disasters are analyzed and discussed.

The tenth chapter mainly elaborates the climatic changes inShanxi over the past 50 years，extreme weather events and relationships，and climate change at the beginning of last frost date change，climate warming and drying trend are analyzed and discussed.
