By using NCEP/NCAR 2.5°×2.5° reanalysis daily data (1983~1996), the long term pentadly mean wind and potential pesudo equivalent temperature fields at 850 hPa have been analysed and further the advance and retreat of the summer monsoon in China have been newly defined. According to this new definition in the summer monsoon region the prevailing wind should be southwest wind (2 m/s at 850 hPa) and the air of the monsoon should be high temperature and moisture (potential pseudo equivalent temperature 340°K in the south of 30°N and 335°K in the north of 30°N at 850 hPa). Due to the southwest wind have been emphasized, the new definition is more reasonable than before. The advance of the summer monsoon have three abrupt northward shifts and four relatively stationary stays. Each stable period is corresponding to a main rainfall belt in China. The retreat of the summer monsoon is very quick. In the middle August the summer monsoon has vanished in the mainland of China. Based on the observational fact one may easily identify these results.
