Abstract

This paper introduces the algorithm of scanning detection for change-points in subsample trends, which was developed by this author, and applying to monthly temperature series of both the global warming and in China mainland for 1951/1 -- 2017/12. The main results were obtained as follows:

• Nine change-points, then 10 sub-periods for the global warming and 8 change-points, then 9 episodes for China mainland were detected out respectively;
• The coherency contour pattern shows that the major areas were positive, which suggest the trend-change directions were in phase, but that in some short-periods were negative, which denote the trend-changes were out of phase;
• The negative coherency occurred around 1956-1960, 1963-1968, 1774-1978, 1997-2000,
• 2006-2010 and 2014-2017 (see figure below). The reason why the negative coherency happened are needed to be investigated further.
• The last obvious decline in the global warming is also needed to be observed and concerned further, but it has not yet appeared in China mainland so far.
