Temperature-humidity index (THI) was adopted to evalulate the climate suitability for the Green Silk Road. Temperature is one of the basic parameters to calculate THI. Refering to theTHI model of Tanget al. (2008), the multi-year average of temperature is calculted based on the observation data (1981-2017) of weather stations provided by National Meteorological Information Center. The multi-year average values were interpolated into the raster dataset at the resolution of 11km×1km by Kriging method based on GIS software. The climate suitability evaluation results calculated based on this dataset could highlight regional differences.
