Sources: Open-Meteo Forecast API (16-day) + Ensemble Mean / EC46 Seasonal API (35-day). Long-range skill degrades significantly after day 10; the 17-35 day band shows probable range only, not a firm forecast. Available for all Chinese sites.

SECTION 05 · REGIONAL OUTLOOK

Xinjiang regional average forecasts — North vs South

North Xinjiang (NXJ) · average across sites

Days 1-10 high-skill · 11-16 extended · 17-35 ensemble mean ± spread

Aggregation: mean of daily Tmax/Tmin/Tmean across all NXJ_* sites (Changji, Tacheng, Bortala, Karamay, Hami, Bingtuan Shihezi). Smoother than any single-site chart because local convective noise averages out.

South Xinjiang (SXJ) · average across sites

Days 1-10 high-skill · 11-16 extended · 17-35 ensemble mean ± spread

Aggregation: mean of daily Tmax/Tmin/Tmean across all SXJ_* sites (Aksu, Bayingolin, Kashgar, Hotan, Bingtuan Alar/Tumxuk). Aksu prefecture (8 sites) is the largest cotton-producing region in China.

SECTION 06 · CLIMATE COMPARISON

Xinjiang year-over-year comparison — current vs recent history

Cumulative heat days · NXJ

Year-to-date count of days with daily mean temp ≥ 86°F (30°C). Compare current year vs recent history.

30-day accumulated GDD · NXJ

Rolling 30-day sum of daily GDD = max(0, Tmean − 50°F). Growing degree units driving crop development.

30-day accumulated solar radiation · NXJ

Rolling 30-day sum of daily shortwave radiation (MJ/m²). Higher = more photosynthetic potential.

Source: Open-Meteo archive (ERA5 reanalysis) aggregated across all Xinjiang sites in each region. Climate normal = mean of 2021-2025 · Year before last = 2024 · Last year = 2025 · Current year = 2026 (partial).

SECTION 04 · CONTEXT

China cotton context

Xinjiang produces ~92% of China's cotton. Planting begins April-May; harvest October. The northern (NXJ) and southern (SXJ) Xinjiang regions are separated by the Tianshan Mountains. NXJ has shorter frost-free periods (140-180 days); SXJ has longer growing seasons and higher quality long-staple cotton.

The Aksu prefecture in SXJ is the single largest cotton-producing region in China. Key risk: spring cold damage (SpCD) during emergence (May).
