摘要
Areview of the effects of theTibetan Platean on circulation features over the plateau and its surrounding areas has been made, with a special emphasis upon the monsoon circulations in South Asin and East Asia. This includes estimates of heat sources, dynamic and thermal effects of the plateau, adn effects of the plateau on summer and winter monsoons. Major progresses made in this aspect by Chinese meteorologists have been specifically described and are compared with the achievements made by the meteorologists of other countries.
