Based on data of number of fog and haze days in Baoji City from 1981 to 2013, the changing trends and mutation of number of fog and haze days in Baoji over the past 33 years were analyzed by using trend coefficient, tendency rate, linear regression analysis, anomaly percentage, Mann-Kendall mutation test and sliding t test. The results showed that during the 33 years, the number of fog and haze days in Baoji declined by 16.255 d/10 a, and there was a cyclical turbulence every 6, 15 or 28 years. The frequency of fog and haze weather was the highest in winter, followed by spring and autumn, while it was the lowest in summer. According to the anomaly percentage of the number of fog and haze days in 12 months during 1981 -2013, the anomaly percentage changed most greatly in July, followed by September, October, April, May, June, August, February and March, but it fluctuated less greatly in January. The number of fog and haze days from 1981 to 2013 had obvious mutation trends in a single year and a single season, and mutation types are different. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
