The Chinese calendar relies on knowing the current day at the moment of a new moon; however, this can vary depending on location. As such, new moon calculations are based on the time in Beijing. Before 1929, local time was used, represented as UTC+(1397/180 h). In 1929, China adopted a standard time zone based on 120 degrees of longitude, meaning from 1929 onward, all new moon calculations are based on UTC+8h.

Offsets are not given in hours, but in partial days (1 hour = 1 / 24 day)
