Abstract: | This paper has made a study of the relationship between the phases of seismic activities from 1966 to 1976 in the region of
the North China Block and the temporal and spatial evolution of temperature anomalies from February 1960 to January 1979 of
the greater North China. The main conclusions are: (1) The temperature variation from February 1960 (rise) to January 1977
(drop) and the temperature rises of September 1975 and February 1976 are connected with the beginning and conclusion of phases
of seismic activity. (2) The relation between the time-duration and the extent of temperature anomaly and that between these
two parameters and the energy released by an earthquake have high credibility. (3) If the time period of 16.5 years between
February 1960 and July 28, 1976, the occurrence time of the the great Tangshan earthquake, is divided into 18 time intervals
according to 0.618N, the earthquakes in this phase of seismic activity and temperature rises fall just into the same intervals.
