This paper deals with the atmospheric concentrations of PM 5 and PM 2.5 particulate matter and its water soluble constituents along with the size distribution of ions and spatial variation at three
different residential environments in a semiarid region in India. Samples were collected from the indoors and outdoors of
urban, rural and roadside sites of Agra during October 2007–March 2008. The mean concentrations of PM 2.5 indoors and outdoors were 178 μgm −3 and 195 μgm −3 while the mean concentrations of PM 5 indoors and outdoors were 231.8 μgm −3 and 265.2 μgm −3 respectively. Out of the total aerosol mass, water soluble constituents contributed an average of 80% (33% anions, 50% cations)
in PM 5 and 70% (29% anions, 43% cations) in PM 2.5. The indoor–outdoor ratio of water soluble components suggested additional aerosol indoor sources at rural and roadside sites.
Indoor–outdoor correlations were also determined which show poor relationships among concentrations of aerosol ions at all
three sites. Univariate Pearson correlation coefficients among water soluble aerosols were determined to evaluate the relationship
between aerosol ions in indoor and outdoor air. 相似文献

The concentrations of PM 10, PM 2.5 and their water-soluble ionic species were determined for the samples collected during January to December, 2007 at New Delhi
(28.63° N, 77.18° E), India. The annual mean PM 10 and PM 2.5 concentrations (± standard deviation) were about 219 (± 84) and 97 (±56) μgm −3 respectively, about twice the prescribed Indian National Ambient Air Quality Standards values. The monthly average ratio
of PM 2.5/PM 10 varied between 0.18 (June) and 0.86 (February) with an annual mean of ∼0.48 (±0.2), suggesting the dominance of coarser in
summer and fine size particles in winter. The difference between the concentrations of PM 10 and PM 2.5, is deemed as the contribution of the coarse fraction (PM 10−2.5). The analyzed coarse fractions mainly composed of secondary inorganic aerosols species (16.0 μgm −3, 13.07%), mineral matter (12.32 μgm −3, 10.06%) and salt particles (4.92 μgm −3, 4.02%). PM 2.5 are mainly made up of undetermined fractions (39.46 μgm −3, 40.9%), secondary inorganic aerosols (26.15 μgm −3, 27.1%), salt aerosols (22.48 μgm −3, 23.3%) and mineral matter (8.41 μgm −3, 8.7%). The black carbon aerosols concentrations measured at a nearby (∼300 m) location to aerosol sampling site, registered
an annual mean of ∼14 (±12) μgm −3, which is significantly large compared to those observed at other locations in India. The source identifications are made
for the ionic species in PM 10 and PM 2.5. The results are discussed by way of correlations and factor analyses. The significant correlations of Cl −, SO 42−, K +, Na +, Ca 2+, NO 3− and Mg 2+ with PM 2.5 on one hand and Mg 2+ with PM 10 on the other suggest the dominance of anthropogenic and soil origin aerosols in Delhi. 相似文献

Kuwait was exposed to a severe dust storm on 19 March 2003, the eve of operation ??Iraqi Freedom??. Three days of dust events (19, 26, 27 March) were analyzed for their aerosol optical and physical properties using ground-based and satellite-retrieved measurements. Ground-based measurements of aerosol optical depth (or thickness; AOD or AOT) at 675?nm, ?? 657, ?ngstrom coefficient ?? 936/657, particulate matter of diameter 10???m or less, PM 10 (??g/m 3), and meteorological parameters were analyzed for March 2003. AOT exceeded 3 for the 3?days of interest and PM 10 concentrations reached as high value as 2,457???g/m 3 on 19 March dust storm day. Retrieved aerosol characteristics from space using Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectrometer (MODIS) on board Terra and Aqua satellite were examined against ground-based measurements. A strong correlation was found between ground-based measurements of ?? 675 and the Terra-MODIS retrieved AOD 550. The synoptic of the dust storm were analyzed and source regions were identified using back trajectory analysis and Total Ozone Mapping Spectrometer Aerosol Index. 相似文献

This study presents the chemical composition (carbonaceous and nitrogenous components) of aerosols (PM2.5 and PM10) along with stable isotopic composition (δ13C and δ15N) collected during winter and the summer months of 2015–16 to explore the possible sources of aerosols in megacity Delhi, India. The mean concentrations (mean?±?standard deviation at 1σ) of PM2.5 and PM10 were 223?±?69 µg m?3 and 328?±?65 µg m?3, respectively during winter season whereas the mean concentrations of PM2.5 and PM10 were 147?±?22 µg m?3 and 236?±?61 µg m?3, respectively during summer season. The mean value of δ13C (range: ??26.4 to ??23.4‰) and δ15N (range: 3.3 to 14.4‰) of PM2.5 were ??25.3?±?0.5‰ and 8.9?±?2.1‰, respectively during winter season whereas the mean value of δ13C (range: ??26.7 to ??25.3‰) and δ15N (range: 2.8 to 11.5‰) of PM2.5 were ??26.1?±?0.4‰ and 6.4?±?2.5‰, respectively during the summer season. Comparison of stable C and N isotopic fingerprints of major identical sources suggested that major portion of PM2.5 and PM10 at Delhi were mainly from fossil fuel combustion (FFC), biomass burning (BB) (C-3 and C-4 type vegitation), secondary aerosols (SAs) and road dust (SD). The correlation analysis of δ13C with other C (OC, TC, OC/EC and OC/WSOC) components and δ15N with other N components (TN, NH4+ and NO3?) are also support the source identification of isotopic signatures. 相似文献

The size-segregated chemical composition of aerosol particles was investigated during 1?year at the puy de D?me (1,465?m?a.s.l.), France. These measurements aimed to a better understanding of the influence of the air mass origin on the size-segregated chemical composition of the aerosol at an altitude site. Mountain site measurements are important because they are representative of long range transport and useful for model validation. PM 1 mass concentration exhibits a seasonal variability with a summer maximum. The composition of PM 1 did not change significantly in terms of relative contribution of water soluble inorganic ions but is rather variable in term of total mass concentrations. For the PM 10-1, a different seasonal behaviour was found with maxima concentrations in autumn-winter. Aerosols were classified into four different categories according to their air mass origin: marine, marine modified, continental and Mediterranean. The PM 10 aerosol mass at 50?% relative humidity was close to 2.5???g?m ?3 in the marine, 4.3???g?m ?3 in the marine modified, 10.3???g?m ?3 in the continental and 7.7???g?m ?3 in the Mediterranean sectors. We noted that the influence of the air mass origin (on the chemical properties) could be seen especially on the PM 10-1. A significant PM 10-1 mode was found in marine, modified marine, and Mediterranean air masses, and PM 1 dominated in the continental air masses samples. As a result, the aerosol chemical composition variability at the puy de D?me is a function of both the season and air mass type and we provide a chemical composition of the aerosol as a function of each of these environmental factors. 相似文献

Continuous observations of mass concentration and elemental composition of aerosol particles (PM2.5) were conducted at Tongyu, a semi-arid site in Northeast China in the spring of 2006. The average mass concentration of PM2.5 at Tongyu station was 260.9±274.4 μg m^-3 during the observation period. Nine dust events were monitored with a mean concentration of 528.0±302.7 μgm^-3. The PM2.5 level during non- dust storm (NDS) period was 111.65±63.37 μg m^-3. High mass concentration shows that fine-size particles pollution was very serious in the semi-arid area in Northeast China. The enrichment factor values for crust elements during the dust storm (DS) period are close to those in the NDS period, while the enrichment factor values for pollution elements during the NDS period are much higher than those in the DS period, showing these elements were from anthropogenic sources. The ratios of dust elements to Fe were relative constant during the DS period. The Ca/Fe ratio in dust aerosols at Tongyu is remarkably different from that observed in other source regions and downwind regions. Meteorological analysis shows that dust events at Tongyu are usually associated with dry, low pressure and high wind speed weather conditions. Air mass back-trajectory analysis identified three kinds of general pathways were associated with the aerosol particle transport to Tongyu, and the northwest direction pathway was the main transport route. 相似文献

An Aerodyne quadruple aerosol mass spectrometer (Q-AMS) has been used to provide on-line measurements of size dependent chemical composition of fine aerosol particles (PM 1) at the Air Pollution Research Station in Preila, Lithuania, representing the east Baltic region. The size dependent chemical composition measurements by AMS have revealed that in marine air masses 118?nm mode organics-containing particles were fresher compared to sulfate-containing particles (295?nm), likely originated as secondary aerosol from forest emissions or produced by primary sea spray over the Baltic Sea. In polluted continental air masses sulfate and organics were highly internally mixed and aged. The mass spectral results indicated that the major components of organic compounds were oxygenated organic species with strong signals at m/z 18, 43, 44 with several specific features. Positive matrix factorization (PMF) of AMS organic mass spectral data has identified three factors: aged oxygenated low-volatility organic aerosol (LV-OOA), less oxygenated semi-volatile organic aerosol (SV-OOA), and biogenic organic aerosol (BGOA) of either terrestrial or marine origin. The measurements were compared with a real-time particulate matter Beta Absorption Monitor (Thermo ESM Andersen) and Micro Orifice Uniform Deposit Impactor (MOUDI) data. The intercomparison showed a good correlation and a stable ratio between PM 1 and PM 2.5 concentrations. A comparison of the on-line Q-AMS data and the off-line MOUDI fine particle (<1???m) data yielded a reasonable agreement in size distributions but not the absolute mass concentrations due to sampling conditions, evaporation of acidic species from sampling substrates and bounce of the particles in the MOUDI. 相似文献

Results are presented of monitoring measurements of the mass concentration of PM 10 (particles with the size of less than 10 μm) and PM 2.5 (less than 2.5 μm) fine-dispersed aerosol fractions at the Sainshand and Zamyn-Üüd stations located in the Gobi Desert of Mongolia. Revealed are the annual variations of the mass concentration of PM 10 and PM 2.5 fine-dispersed aerosol fractions at these stations in 2008. The maximum values of monthly mean concentration during the year were observed in May in the period of dust storms. On the days with the steady calm weather, the mass concentrations of PM 10 and PM 2.5 varied within 5–8 μg/m 3 (PM 10) and 3–5 μg/m 3 (PM 2.5) at the Sainshand station. During the dust storms, the maximum values of concentration exceeded 1400 μg/m 3 (PM 10) and 380 μg/m 3 (PM 2.5) that is by 28 (PM 10) and 15 (PM 2.5) times higher than the maximum permissible concentration for the European Union. Results are given of studying the frequency and duration of dust storms in recent 20 years (1991–2010) in the Eastern Gobi Desert. 相似文献

Airborne particulates were monitored at an urban location of middle Indo-Gangetic Plain (IGP) and subsequently analyzed for particulate diversity and mixing states. Exceptionally high particulate loadings were found both in case of coarser (PM 10: 157.5 ± 102.9 μgm ?3, n = 46) and finer particulates (PM 2.5: 92.5 ± 49.8 μgm ?3). Based on particulate morphology and elemental composition, five different clusters of particulates namely tarball, soot, sulphur-rich, aluminosilicate and mineral species were found to dominate. Soot particles (0.1–5 μm) were found to be partly coated, having voids filled by coating material without being completely engulfed. A specific type of amorphous, carbonaceous spherules was evident in wintertime fine particulates signifying emissions from biomass burning and wild fire. Traces of S, Na and Ca were found associated with carbonaceous agglomerates suggesting its metal scavenging behavior. Particle laden filters were further processed for metallic and water soluble ionic species to constitute aerosol composition. Coarser particulates were characterized with higher metallic species (9.2–17.8 %), mostly of crustal origin (Ca: 5.5 %; Fe: 1.6 %; Zn: 1.3 % and Na: 3.8 %) while PM 2.5 also revealed their association with metallic components (6.0–14.9 %) having Ca (4.6 %), Fe (0.9 %) and K (0.8 %) as principle constituents. Ca, Na and NH 4 + found to generate chloride and sulphate salts thus affecting particulate hygroscopicity. Elevated fractions of NO 3 ? and K + in PM 2.5 signified contribution of biomass burning while presence of Cl ? with carbonaceous aerosols having traces of Si and K denoted contribution of farming and burning practices. Black carbon aerosol exhibited significant seasonal variability (6.9?21.9 μgm ?3) which support larger association of carbonaceous aerosols in particle micrograph. 相似文献

This study investigated meteorological, physical, and chemical characteristics of 2 severe Hwangsa (Asian dust, maximum average of PM 10 above 1000 μg m ?3) observed in Seoul, the capital city of Korea, during 30~31 st May, 2008 (DSS2008) and 25~26 th December, 2009 (DSS2009). DSS2008 and DSS2009 had a same source region and route. However, they have different meteorological conditions. DSS2009 had a shorter travel time from the source region to Korea and shorter duration time in Korea than DSS2008 due to a strong winter Siberian anticyclone. One of DSS2008 sample was affected by not only Asian dust but also a long-range transported haze due to consecutive influx after low pressure passed while DSS2009 sample collected only dust aerosol. For both cases, the mass concentration of coarse particles (PM 10-1) increased by 3~14 times compared to that during non Asian dust period, however, that of fine particles (PM 1) increased only in DSS2008. For DSS2008 water-soluble ion balance between anions and cations in fine mode was close to 1:1 while cations were higher than anions in coarse mode. NH 4 + and Ca 2+ were found to be the main contributing factors for the neutralization. Cl ? loss was observed about 60% indicating an active interaction of Na + with pollutants. Reconstruction of chemical compositions showed relatively high concentrations of secondary pollutants (NH 4NO 3 and (NH 4) 2SO 4), CaCO 3, and Ca(NO 3) 2 compared to that during non Asian dust period. DSS2009 exhibited the typical characteristics of Asian dust having a high concentration of Ca 2+ with higher equivalent concentration of cations than anions in all size bins. Cl ? loss was hardly observed. The secondary pollutants were lower than that of non Asian dust cases. The result of reconstruction of ionic components indicated the CaCO 3 derived from soil particle, CaSO 4, and Ca (NO 3) 2 were dominant in DSS2009. 相似文献

本文利用区域空气质量模式RAQMS(Regional Air Quality Model System),对2009年春季中国东部气溶胶主要化学成分及其分布进行了模拟研究。与泰山站观测资料的对比结果显示,模式能比较合理地反映气溶胶浓度的逐日变化特征。整体上,模式对无机盐气溶胶的模拟好,分别高估和低估黑碳和有机碳气溶胶浓度,其原因与排放源、二次有机气溶胶化学机制和模式分辨率的不确定性有关。模拟结果显示,春季气溶胶浓度高值主要集中于华北、四川东部、长江中下游等地区。受东南亚生物质燃烧和大气输送的影响,中国的云南和广西等地区有机碳浓度高于中国其他地区。中国西北部沙尘浓度较高,而且向东输送并影响到中国东部和南方部分地区。中国东部的华北、四川东部、长江中下游等地PM 2.5(空气动力学直径在2.5微米以下的颗粒物)污染严重,4月平均PM 2.5浓度超过了我国日平均PM 2.5浓度限值。中国东部泰山站的观测和模拟结果都显示近地面硝酸盐浓度超过硫酸盐,中国北部对流层中硝酸盐的柱含量也大于硫酸盐,而在中国南部则相反,这一方面与春季中国云量 南多北少的分布特征以及云内液相化学反应有关,另一方面也与南北温差对气溶胶形成的影响有关。就整个中国东部而言,虽然硫酸盐的柱含量(46 Gg)仍大于硝酸盐(42 Gg),但比较接近,反映出我国氮氧化物排放迅速增加的趋势。春季中国地区对流层中PM 10(空气动力学直径在10微米以下的颗粒物)及其化学成分柱含量分别为:990.8 Gg(PM 10),52.6 Gg(硫酸盐),48.2 Gg(硝酸盐),32.1 Gg(铵盐),22.9 Gg(黑碳)和74.1 Gg(有机碳),有机碳(OC)中一次有机碳(POC)和二次有机碳(SOC)分别占60%和40%,中国东部PM 10中人为气溶胶和沙尘分别占30%和70%,反映了春季沙尘对我国大气气溶胶的重要贡献。 相似文献

The UNMIX and Chemical Mass Balance (CMB) receptor models were used to investigate sources of PM 2.5 aerosols measured between March 2001 and February 2002 in Gwangju, Korea. Measurements of PM 2.5 particles were used for the analysis of carbonaceous species (organic (OC) and elemental carbon (EC)) using the thermal manganese dioxide oxidation (TMO) method, the investigation of seven ionic species using ion chromatography (IC), and the analysis of twenty-four metal species using Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP)-Atomic Emission Spectrometry (AES)/ICP-Mass Spectrometry (MS). According to annual average PM 2.5 source apportionment results obtained from CMB calculations, diesel vehicle exhaust was the major contributor, accounting for 33.4% of the measured PM 2.5 mass (21.5 μg m − 3), followed by secondary sulfate (14.6%), meat cooking (11.7%), secondary organic carbon (8.9%), secondary nitrate (7.6%), urban dust (5.5%), Asian dust (4.4%), biomass burning (2.8%), sea salt (2.7%), residual oil combustion (2.6%), gasoline vehicle exhaust (1.9%), automobile lead (0.5%), and components of unknown sources (3.4%). Seven PM 2.5 sources including diesel vehicles (29.6%), secondary sulfate (17.4%), biomass burning (14.7%), secondary nitrate (12.6%), gasoline vehicles (12.4%), secondary organic carbon (5.8%) and Asian dust (1.9%) were identified from the UNMIX analysis. The annual average source apportionment results from the two models are compared and the reasons for differences are qualitatively discussed for better understanding of PM 2.5 sources.Additionally, the impact of air mass pathways on the PM 2.5 mass was evaluated using air mass trajectories calculated with the Hybrid Single-Particle Lagrangian Integrated Trajectory (HYSPLIT) backward trajectory model. Source contributions to PM 2.5 collected during the four air mass patterns and two event periods were calculated with the CMB model and analyzed. Results of source apportionment revealed that the contribution of diesel traffic exhaust (47.0%) in stagnant conditions (S) was much higher than the average contribution of diesel vehicle exhaust (33.4%) during the sampling period. During Asian dust (AD) periods when the air mass passed over the Korean peninsula, Asian dust and secondary organic carbon accounted for 25.2 and 23.0% of the PM 2.5 mass, respectively, whereas Asian dust contributed only 10.8% to the PM 2.5 mass during the AD event when the air mass passed over the Yellow Sea. The contribution of biomass burning to the PM 2.5 mass during the biomass burning (BB) event equaled 63.8%. 相似文献

Spokane, WA is prone to frequent particulate pollution episodes due to dust storms, biomass burning, and periods of stagnant meteorological conditions. Spokane is the location of a long-term study examining the association between health effects and chemical or physical constituents of particulate pollution. Positive matrix factorization (PMF) was used to deduce the sources of PM 2.5 (particulate matter ≤2.5 μm in aerodynamic diameter) at a residential site in Spokane from 1995 through 1997. A total of 16 elements in 945 daily PM 2.5 samples were measured. The PMF results indicated that seven sources independently contribute to the observed PM 2.5 mass: vegetative burning (44%), sulfate aerosol (19%), motor vehicle (11%), nitrate aerosol (9%), airborne soil (9%), chlorine-rich source (6%) and metal processing (3%). Conditional probability functions were computed using surface wind data and the PMF deduced mass contributions from each source and were used to identify local point sources. Concurrently measured carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxides were correlated with the PM 2.5 from both motor vehicles and vegetative burning. 相似文献

Long-term measurements of ambient particulate matter less than 2.5 μm in diameter (PM 2.5) and its chemical compositions were performed at a rural site in Korea from December 2005 to August 2009. The average PM 2.5 concentration was 31 μg m −3 for the whole sampling period, and showed a slightly downward annual trend. The major components of PM 2.5 were organic carbon, SO 42−, NO 3−, and NH 4+, which accounted for 55 % of total PM 2.5 mass on average. For the top 10 % of PM 2.5 samples, anionic constituents and trace elements clearly increased while carbonaceous constituents and NH 4+ remained relatively constant. Both Asian dust and fog events clearly increased PM 2.5 concentrations, but affected its chemical composition differently. While trace elements significantly increased during Asian
dust events, NO 3−, NH 4+ and Cl were dramatically enhanced during fog events due to the formation of saturated or supersaturated salt solution. The
back-trajectory based model, PSCF (Potential Source Contribution Function) identified the major industrial areas in Eastern
China as the possible source areas for the high PM 2.5 concentrations at the sampling site. Using factor analysis, soil, combustion processes, non-metal manufacture, and secondary
PM 2.5 sources accounted for 77 % of the total explained variance. 相似文献

Size-segregated high-volume (HV) quartz filter samples were collected daily at the Melpitz rural site in Germany for PM 10 (November 1992 until April 2012), and for PM 2.5 and PM 1 (January 2003 until April 2012, PM 1 sampled every sixth day). The samples were analysed for mass concentration (gravimetrically), water-soluble ions (ion-chromatography) and since 2003 for organic carbon (OC) and elemental carbon (EC) (thermography). The long-term measurements first show a decreasing trend for PM 10 (1993–2000) followed by a second period (2001–2011) with a mean mass concentration of about 22.4 μgm ?3 and an inter-annual variation of about?±?2.9 μgm ?3 (13% fluctuation margin). The absolute sulphate and calcium concentration (for the full period), as well as the EC concentration (time after 2003) decrease by about 50, 75 and 30% for PM 10, respectively. The nitrate concentration remains constant all the time. For the daily objective weather type classification (OWTC, 1993–2002) the highest PM 10 concentration was found for South-East (SE) and the lowest for North-West (NW) wind direction with 44 and 24 μgm ?3, respectively. These concentrations decrease for 2003–2011 in comparison to 1993–2002 by about 21% and 26%, respectively. The highest PM 10, PM 2.5 and PM 1 concentrations (2003–2011) were found for SE and the lowest for NW wind direction with about 34 and 17 μgm ?3 (PM 10), 28 and 19 μgm ?3 (PM 2.5) and 22 and 11 μgm ?3 (PM 1), respectively. The relative content of sulphate, OC and EC was the highest for SE wind direction. A differentiation into four categories for winter (Wi) and summer (Su) and air mass inflow from West (W) and East (E) was carried out. The highest PM concentrations were observed for WiE with the highest inter-annual fluctuation. In this category sulphate contents are largest. The lowest concentrations where found for SuW. The means for WiE show the strongest relative decreases, e.g. in PM 10 sulphate (1993–2011) and EC (2003–2011) by about 60% and 40%, respectively. Nitrate is an indicator for NO x motor-car emissions. It shows a typical variation with maximum values in the middle of the week , especially for air mass inflow from West. In contrast, chloride mostly originating from sea spray doesn’t show such a concentration pattern. The PM 2.5/PM 10 as well the PM 1/PM 10-ratio have the highest median (0.878 and 0.654) during WiE and the lowest (0.718 and 0.578) during SuW, respectively. For the ratio PM 2.5/PM 10 a slightly increasing trend was found (about 0.71 and 0.83 for 1995 and 2011, respectively). The increase is stronger in summer than in winter. 相似文献

The indoor PM 2.5 aerosol samples for charcoal broiling source under Chinese traditional charbroiling and the ambient fine aerosols samples
(PM 2.5) were collected in Beijing to investigate the characteristics of the charcoal broiling source and its impact on the fine
organic aerosols in the atmosphere. The concentrations of 20 species of the trace organic compounds, including polycyclic
aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), fatty acids, levoglucosan, and cholesterol in PM 2.5 were identified and quantified by GC/MS. The total PAHs and fatty acids emitted from charcoal broiling to PM 2.5 were 8.97 and 87,000 ng mg −1 respectively. The concentrations of the light molecular weight (LMW) 3- and 4-ring PAHs were much higher than those of the
high molecular weight (HMW) 5- and 6-ring PAHs. Fatty acids were the most abundant species in source profile, accounting for
over 90% of all identified organic compounds. More polyunsaturated fatty acid (linoleic acids) than the saturated fatty acid
(stearic acids) emitted in the cooking. Charcoal broiling is a minor source of PAHs compared to the source of biomass burning.
Comparing the ratios of levoglucosan/fatty acid and levoglucosan/cholesterol in the charcoal broiling samples to the ambient
samples, it is evident that meat cooking is an important source of fatty acids, but a less important source of cholesterol.
Cooking, as one of the source of fine organic particles, plus other anthropogenic sources would be related to the formation
of the severe haze occurred and spread over the urban atmosphere in most of the cities of China in the past several years. 相似文献

We used simultaneous measurements of surface PM 2.5 concentration and vertical profiles of aerosol concentration, temperature, and humidity, together with regional air quality model simulations, to study an episode of aerosol pollution in Beijing from 15 to 19 November 2016. The potential effects of easterly and southerly winds on the surface concentrations and vertical profiles of the PM 2.5 pollution were investigated. Favorable easterly winds produced strong upward motion and were able to transport the PM 2.5 pollution at the surface to the upper levels of the atmosphere. The amount of surface PM 2.5 pollution transported by the easterly winds was determined by the strength and height of the upward motion produced by the easterly winds and the initial height of the upward wind. A greater amount of PM 2.5 pollution was transported to upper levels of the atmosphere by upward winds with a lower initial height. The pollutants were diluted by easterly winds from clean ocean air masses. The inversion layer was destroyed by the easterly winds and the surface pollutants and warm air masses were then lifted to the upper levels of the atmosphere, where they re-established a multi-layer inversion. This region of inversion was strengthened by the southerly winds, increasing the severity of pollution. A vortex was produced by southerly winds that led to the convergence of air along the Taihang Mountains. Pollutants were transported from southern–central Hebei Province to Beijing in the boundary layer. Warm advection associated with the southerly winds intensified the inversion produced by the easterly winds and a more stable boundary layer was formed. The layer with high PM 2.5 concentration became dee-per with persistent southerly winds of a certain depth. The polluted air masses then rose over the northern Taihang Mountains to the northern mountainous regions of Hebei Province. 相似文献

Soil dust aerosol is the largest contributor to aerosol mass concentrations in the troposphere and has considerable effects on air quality and climate. Arid and semi-arid areas of East Asia are one of the important dust source regions thus it is crucial to understand dust mobilization and accurately estimate dust emissions in East Asia. However, present dust models still contain large uncertainties with dust emissions that remain a significant contributor to the overall uncertainties in the model. In this study, we attempt to reduce these uncertainties by using an inverse modeling technique and obtain optimized dust emissions. We use Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectrometer (MODIS) aerosol optical depths (AODs) and groundbased mass concentrations of particles less than 10 μm in aerodynamic diameter (PM 10) observations over East Asia in May 2007. The MODIS AODs are validated with AErosol RObotic NETwork (AERONET) AODs. The inversion uses the maximum a posteriori method and the GEOS-Chem chemical transport model (CTM) as a forward model. The model error is large over dust source regions including the Gobi Desert and Mongolia. We find that inverse modeling analyses from the MODIS and PM 10 observations consistently result in decrease of dust emissions over Mongolia and the Gobi Desert. Whereas over the Taklamakan Desert and Manchuria, the inverse modeling analyses from both observations yield contrast results such as increase of dust sources using MODIS AODs, while decrease of those using PM 10 observations. We discuss some limitations of both observations to obtain the optimized dust emissions and suggest several strategies for the improvement of dust emission estimates in the model. 相似文献

The Asian Dust Aerosol Model 2 with the MM5 meteorological model has been employed to estimate the dust emission, dust concentration, and wet and dry deposition of dust in the Asian region for the month of March in 2010. It is found that the model simulates quite reasonably the dust (PM 10) concentrations both in the dust source region and the downstream region of Korea. The starting and ending times of most dust events and their peak concentration occurrence times are well simulated. The monthly mean maximum surface dust concentration (PM 10) is found to be 267???g?m ?3 in the domain of central northern China (CNC). Monthly total maximum dust emission of more than 32?t km ?2 and that of deposition of more than 25.4?t km ?2 (dry deposition of 24?t km ?2 and wet deposition of 1.4?t km ?2) are found to occur in the domain CNC, whereas the monthly mean minimum surface dust concentration (PM 10) is found to be 0.2???g?m ?3 in the domain of the Tibetan Plateau, where the monthly total dust emission (4?kg?km ?2) and the monthly total dust deposition (9?kg?km ?2) are found to be minimum. This monthly total dust deposition of 9?kg?km ?2 (dry deposition of 7?kg?km ?2 and wet deposition of 2?kg?km ?2) is as large as 2.25 times of that of emission (4?kg?km ?2), suggesting net dust influx toward the Tibetan Plateau from the surrounding dust source regions. It is also found that the ratio of the total dust deposition to the total dust emission in the source region increases toward the downstream direction from 0.4 in the upstream source region of Taklimakan to 0.80 in the downstream source region of northeastern China. More than 90% of the total dust deposition is found to be contributed by dry deposition due to the lack of precipitation in the dust source region. The monthly mean dust concentration (PM 10) is found to decrease with distance away from the dust source region. The monthly mean dust concentration of 62???g?m ?3 over the Yellow Sea (YES) decreases to 4.3???g?m ?3 over the Northwestern Pacific Ocean (NWP). The monthly total dust deposition in the downstream region is also found to decrease away from the source region from 2.33?t km ?2 (dry deposition of 1.36?t km ?2 and wet deposition of 0.97?t km ?2) over the domain YES to 1.45?t km ?2 (dry deposition of 0.16?t km ?2 and wet deposition of 1.30?t km ?2) over the domain NWP. A large amount of the total dust deposition over the seas is contributed by wet deposition (more than 90%), causing a small decreasing rate of the total dust deposition with distance from the source region. The estimated dust deposition could adversely impact the eco-environmental system significantly in the downstream regions of the Asian dust source region, especially over the seas. 相似文献
