About these times
All times are computed for Shanghai's coordinates and shown in its local time zone, including daylight saving. Sunrise and sunset use the standard −0.833° definition (sun's upper edge at the horizon, corrected for refraction).
Civil dawn and dusk mark the period when the sun is less than 6° below the horizon — bright enough for most outdoor activities without artificial light. The day-length change shows how fast the days are currently growing or shrinking.
