Based on the three-year meteorological data (April 1983--March 1986) and extensive agroclimatic investigation on the south slopeof Shen Nong Jia, the spatial distribution models for the agroclimaticelements are proposed. In terms of these models the values of thecorresponding elements at different elevations are estimated. After cal-culating the indices by mathematic methods, such as the principal component analysis and Miani model, the division of the verticalagroclimate layers on the south slope of Shen Nong Jia is made by meansof A. I. D. cluster analysis. This provides scientific grounds for reasonable utilization and exploitation of the agroclimatic resources onthe south slope of Shen Nong Jia.
