'''Arxan''' ([[Mongolian language|Mongolian]]: {{MongolUnicode|ᠷᠠᠰᠢᠶᠠᠨ}} {{lit}} "[[hot spring|Hot Springs]]") is a [[county-level city]] in the [[Hinggan League]] of northeastern [[Inner Mongolia]], [[China]].
==Geography and climate==
Arxan is located in the northwest of Hinggan League, with latitude ranging from 46° 39' to 47° 39' N and longitude ranging from 119° 28' to 121° 23' E; the maximal north–south extent is {{convert|118|km|abbr=on}}, while the maximal east–west width is {{convert|142|km|abbr=on}}. It spans part of the southwest of the [[Greater Khingan Range]].
Due to the upper-mid latitude and elevation of around {{convert|1000|m|sigfig=3|abbr=on}}, the climate of Arxan is a [[subarctic climate|subarctic]] ([[Köppen climate classification|Köppen]] ''Dwc''), with strong [[monsoon]]al influence, severely cold winters and warm, rainy summers, and low temperatures averaging below freezing for eight calendar months; the monthly 24-hour average temperature stays below freezing for six calendar months. The monthly 24-hour average temperature ranges from {{convert|−24.8|°C|1|disp=or}} in January to {{convert|17.1|°C|1|disp=or}} in July, and the annual mean is {{convert|−2.31|°C|1|disp=or}}. For much of the year, [[diurnal temperature variation]] is large and frequently in excess of {{convert|15|C-change|disp=or}}. Nearly three-fourths of the annual precipitation occurs from June to September; however, precipitation is frequent year-round, with both frequency and [[relative humidity]] peaking in summer and there being a secondary humidity peak during the winter.
