Based on NEX-BCC_CGM1.1 global daily statistics downscaling climate data set, the latest release by American National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), which has representative concentration path, by using linear fitting and empirical orthogonal function (EOF) analysis methods, the simulation capacity on precipitation and temperature in Qinling and its surrounding areas of this data sets was estimated and the possible changes of the precipitation, daily maximum and minimum temperature in the next stage under the two scenarios of Rcp4.5 and Rcp8.5 were analyzed. Results showed that: ①The inter-annual trend of average daily precipitation, maximum temperature, minimum temperature is simulated well by NEX-BCC_CGM1.1. The spatial distribution was in accordance with the observations. The deficiency is that the elements value and extreme frequency have systemic bias compared with the observations. ②Average daily precipitation will have increasing trend in the future in Qinling and its surrounding areas under the two scenarios of Rcp4.5 and Rcp8.5. For different level precipitation frequency, light rains will reduce and rainstorms will increase in the future. The spatial modes of precipitation in the future are shown as the variation of the uniform increase in the whole region (EOF1) and anti-phase change in northern and southern Qinling (EOF2). EOF1 will be positive phase in medium-term in the Mid-21st century, where there will be significantly more means precipitation. ③Under the two scenarios, temperature warming trend is obvious, daily maximum temperature increasing trend is greater than minimum temperature, and the amplitude of temperature increase under Rcp8.5 is higher than Rcp4.5. The frequency of daily maximum temperatures greater than 36 ℃ will increase and low temperature less than -15 ℃ will reduce in the future, at the same time, high temperature (low temperature) increase (decrease) rate is more pronounced under Rcp8.5. Average daily maximum and minimum temperatures are shown uniform warming in the whole region (EOF1) and anti-phase change in northern and southern Qinling under two scenarios, but the spatial distribution has great difference.
