Using hydrological statistics and cross wavelet transform analysis, the variation characteristics of the runoff of the Xijiang River and the relation between the meteorological factors and the runoff in multi-time scales are detected in this research. The analysis indicates that the annual runoff decreases, which might be due to the weaken response of runoff to precipitation caused by increasing of evaporation and infiltration effected by human activities. The annual runoff fluctuation shows good correspondence with the precipitation. The cross wavelet analysis revealed that the impact of temperature to river flow occurred in the circle of 3-5 years in 1990-2000, in which the runoff shows lagging of 6-12 months to the temperature variation; the in-phase relations between the precipitation and river flow are found in almost all the time-frequency domains, good coherence can be found in the circle of 3 to 4 years between 1992 and 2003 and 11 to 12 years in 1980-2000; the impact of abnormal climate on runoff mainly occurred in the circle of 2 to 3 years in 1965-1975 and 3 to 5 years in 1993-2000, the impacts to the runoff variation might be carried out by the influence on the precipitation in the basin, the lag time between runoff variation and abnormal climate change event is 6 to 12 months in1965-1975 while equated almost to zero in 1980- 2000, this phenomenon might be caused by the changing of runoff production process effected by the changing of land use.
