Abstract: The paper aims to provide theory basis to the agricultural and economic development of the loess plateau region by means of the climate characteristic research to Qingyang Region, Gansu Province, which is built under the global climate change. The climate characteristics and change rules of Qingyang loess plateau areas was analyzed through various statistical method according to the rainfall, temperature, sunshine duration and other meteorological elements from the 8 stations in Qingyang District during recent 35 years. The result showed that: there was uneven seasonal rainfall distribution and distinction between wet and dry season. Heavy rainfall appeared from April to September; the tendency of annual precipitation in the middle and south-east area reduced, while it was reverse in the north-west area; the temperature difference lied in gully region having low temperature in winter and high one in summer compared with other plains and mountainous areas.
