Xinhuanet Quanzhou, August 19 (Reporter Yu Ziru) " Blue Tears " viewing schedule, tea box printed with QR code, various automatic meteorological observation stations, LED meteorological displays in scenic spots... In Fujian, many "magic tools" have emerged, making meteorological services more warm in time. These are just one of the vivid practices of meteorological departments to implement precise monitoring, accurate forecasting and fine service through services.

In recent years, the Fujian meteorological department has continuously expanded the field of meteorological services, continuously consolidated meteorological service capabilities, and continuously extended the tentacles of meteorological service, making weather forecasts detailed, refined and deep, and silently protecting Anlan, Fujian.

Create a "new driving force" of the tourism economy

mentions Dehua , and many people's first impression is the "world porcelain capital". Nowadays, Dehua has another "label" - natural oxygen bar.

Dehua, a thousand-year-old county, is known as the "alpine green city". It has pleasant scenery and long-term air and water environment quality leads Fujian. Relying on the beautiful natural environment, Dehua has embarked on a path of rural revitalization of characteristic tourism.

is located in the northwest of Dehua, Jiuxian Mountain . It has strange rocks standing, strange rocks everywhere, peaks and mountains competing with beautiful scenery. Especially the rain, rime, sea of ​​clouds and other landscapes attract a large number of tourists from surrounding areas and photography enthusiasts from all over the country to check in. It depends entirely on luck to enjoy these beautiful scenery.

"Some tourists came after seeing the pictures posted on the Internet, and the rain, rime melted." Cai Huishan, manager of Jiuxianshan Scenic Area , said that sometimes due to weather factors, the rain, rime and sea of ​​clouds lasted for a short time, and many viewers who come here often return in disappointment.

changes, which happened in 2019. That year, the Quanzhou Meteorological Observatory launched special service products for alpine tourism meteorological landscapes such as rain, rime, and sea of ​​clouds, with forecasts 48 hours in advance, so that tourists can not walk or go empty when viewing the scenery. Taking the first forecast as an example, the number of tourists in Jiuxian Mountain increased by nearly 8,000 compared with the daily life.

accurate forecast of Jiuxian Mountain meteorological landscape has become a vivid footnote for Fujian meteorological department to provide refined services to the tourism industry. Nowadays, in Fujian, tourism meteorological forecasting service products such as "blue tears", sunrise and sunset, star-watching and moon-watching have been launched one after another. On this basis, the first "Haitian Landscape Tourism Meteorological Report" innovatively launched in March last year provides tourists to Fujian with more diverse travel options.

It can be said that "meteorological power" is becoming a "new driving force" that drives Fujian's tourism economy.

The rapid development of tourism industry has gradually enriched the "purse bags" of rural people.

Pingtan County Beigang Cultural and Creative Village, many years ago, it was still a small fishing village, backward and barren. Now, relying on "blue tears", stone houses, island scenery and other landscapes, it has developed into a nationally renowned tourist town.

"April to May is the outbreak of 'blue tears' every year, attracting tourists from all over the country to come and watch every year. The homestay in the village is often hard to find a house." Chen Baisong, secretary of Beigang Cultural and Creative Village, Pingtan County, told reporters that last year the village's tourism income exceeded 33 million yuan, and the per capita income increased by 12,000 yuan.

The role of meteorological landscape forecast in tourism is becoming increasingly prominent. A statistics show that in 2021, Fujian Province received 406 million domestic tourists and achieved domestic tourism revenue of 486.234 billion yuan, an increase of 15.6% and 5.3% respectively over the same period last year.

Let rural revitalization "acceleration"

In the past, what Liu Jinlong feared the most was rain. Now, he is no longer afraid.

Liu Jinlong, who has been in the Tieguanyin for more than 40 years, is a famous local tea maker in Anxi and owns a tea base of more than 1,000 acres. In the past, he relied on the experience passed down from generation to generation to pick tea.

Anxi, the hometown of Chinese oolong tea and the birthplace of Tieguanyin, mainly produces spring tea and autumn tea . The tea picking time is 20 days before and after the beginning of summer in May and 20 days before and after the cold dew solar term in October.

In the eyes of tea makers, Tieguanyin is a "good but not easy to grow" tea, because the weather requirements during its production are high: only when the weather is clear and the picked tea leaves are less water, the quality of the tea produced is better. Oolong tea is made using a semi-fermentation process, and the fermentation process also requires appropriate temperature, humidity and light.

There is no assistance from weather forecast. Liu Jinlong told reporters that picking tea and making tea is like dismantling blind boxes - good weather and high income; bad weather, you may be in vain for a year.

This is not only Liu Jinlong’s sorrow, but also the troubles of farmers in Anxi County. There are 600,000 mu of tea gardens in Anxi County, and more than 80% of farmers are engaged in the tea industry, forming a complete tea characteristic agricultural industry chain. Anxi County County Mayor Liu Yongqiang did some calculations. If there were typhoons, heavy rains and other weather during the tea production period, the loss of the county in one day would reach 100 million yuan.

Does it rely on the heaven to make a living, or does man conquer nature? This is not only about farmers' wallets, but also about the sustainable development of the tea industry.

People have what they need, and the "meteorological people" will do something. In recent years, the Anxi County Meteorological Bureau has provided high-quality meteorological services for the development of Anxi tea industry as a focus point, building 61 automatic monitoring stations across the county and 13 microclimate stations in tea gardens, so that tea trees have a "baton" from planting to harvesting.

Local meteorological departments observe various meteorological elements in the tea growth period through microclimate stations to provide suggestions for tea farmers to arrange picking time; before major weather processes, tea farmers will be informed of weather conditions through various channels such as TV scrolling subtitles, phone calls, text messages, WeChat groups, LED display screen , etc.; during the tea picking period, tea meteorological service reports are launched to provide future weather trends and forecast factors such as sunny and rainy weather, temperature, and humidity...

Now, the meteorological services received by Anxi tea farmers are becoming more and more refined and more detailed.

Two years ago, Anxi took the lead in the province to carry out the first tea climate quality certification. On the packaging box of each tea leaves, there is a QR code. After scanning, you can check the temperature, precipitation, humidity and other weather conditions during the tea growth period.

Liu Yongqiang told reporters that by launching tea climate quality certification, the implementation of "one product, one code" has been further enhanced the brand influence of Anxi tea industry. According to market surveys, the market price of certified tea has increased by 10%-20%.

Jiujie Reef Lighthouse Automatic Weather Station

Meteorological Escort

Supports a "protective umbrella" for travelers

midsummer, the sun is scorching, Xiamen Port Ships shuttle back and forth.

As the leader of Fujian Province's port group, Xiamen Port's container throughput ranked a record high last year, ranking 13th in the world's container ports.

"Shipping and ports are highly sensitive industries in meteorologically, especially when ships go from the high seas to entering the port. The captain needs to keep an eye on the waterway situation with high tension, including surrounding ship dynamics and meteorological changes in the navigation area. If negligence is done, it is very easy to cause accidents." Li Nan, general manager of Silk Road Maritime Operations Co., Ltd., said.

Among them, the most stressful sailing area is Jiujie Reef.

Jiujie Reef, the throat place on the main channel of Xiamen Port. There are often advection fog in specific seasons, and the surrounding areas may be clear and clear, which is very easy to affect the captain's judgment. The demand for meteorological observation is urgent.

On June 11, 2020, Xiamen Meteorological Bureau built China's first lighthouse meteorological observation station - the "Silk Road Sea Transport" automatic meteorological observation station on Jiujie Reef, rolling to provide weather service information for cargo ships entering and leaving the port. It has been in operation for more than two years, and has been escorted to more than 100,000 ships entering and leaving the port. The navigation efficiency in foggy days has been increased by at least 10%, and port production, ship operations, cargo circulation, etc. have all benefited.

Xiamen Port is a microcosm of Fujian meteorological services extending from the blue sky to the blue ocean.

Fujian is a major marine province with a coastline of more than 3,700 kilometers. Islands of all sizes are spread across the coastal lines of eastern Fujian and eastern Fujian. At the sea, the "storm and cloud" are unpredictable. The coast is prone to typhoons, strong winds and heavy rains.

In recent years, Fujian Provincial Meteorological Bureau has been committed to improving the monitoring and forecasting capabilities of disaster weather such as strong sea winds, sea fog and strong sea convection.At present, a marine three-dimensional observation network with shore-based, sea-based, air-based and space-based as important support has been initially built, which has greatly improved the accuracy of marine disaster weather forecasts.

The improvement of meteorological security services has not stopped.

, where the Pingtan Strait Highway and Railway Bridge is located, is one of the three major storm waters in the world that are as famous as Bermuda and Cape of Good Hope . There are more than 300 days of strong winds above level 6 throughout the year. On the bridge that is more than 16 kilometers long, sometimes the bridgehead has a wide view, but when you walk to the bridge, you suddenly have fog , which requires more precise meteorological monitoring information.

In July this year, the Meteorological Bureau of Pingtan Comprehensive Experimental Zone took the initiative to negotiate with the Daqiao Traffic Police Brigade on the installation of the meteorological automatic station. A month later, the first automatic meteorological station of the Pingtan Strait Highway-Rail Bridge section was completed and put into use, making the former storm waters a perfect route.

Looking at the land of Fujian, meteorological monitors support people's "protective umbrellas" for maritime transportation. 1376 coastal automatic meteorological stations, Taiwan Strait sea fog monitoring, forecasting and early warning system, maritime high-impact weather forecasting and early warning indicator system... Fujian Meteorological people are striving to create a model area for "Maritime Fujian" meteorological service guarantee.
