Abstract: Based on the information of the Meteorological Science and Technology Management Information System of the China Meteorological Administration, this paper preliminary analyzes the basic characteristics of the meteorological research achievements (MRA) in 2005-2017, including the category, origin, subject, awards and the source of funded projects. The results show that on average more than 600 MRA a year fully reflects the scientific and technological characteristics of meteorological services. The successive introduction of management measures such as the identification, test bed, and operational access has promoted the explosive growth of MRA in recent years. It also highlighted the necessity and significance of strengthening the management of MRA. On the other hand, from the types of MRA and the national science and technology awards, much still remains to be done in terms of basic theoretical research and original innovation on meteorological science and technology.
