The cause of anomaly drought and wet years in summer and autumn in east of Northwest China was studied by method of dynamical diagnose.The result showed that the wind vector field appears intensive anticyclone field, vertical velocity was sinking motion, specific humiditywas negative departure on 500 hPa geopotential height in typical drought year in Northwest China, the temperature of Bering sea and sea of equatorat 5°S~5°N, 170°E~120°W were positive departure, but the sea temperature of Kurushio and westerly float field were negative departure.While these results in typical wet year were just opposite.All these indicated that circulation, specific humidity, wind vector, vertical velocity field and equator sea temperature field of drought years in summer and autumn were opposite to that of wet years on 500 hPa geopotential height in Northwest China, which were main physical causes that promoted to form drought and wet years.
