The Nested Air Quality Prediction Model System (NAQPMS) was used to investigate an extreme regional haze episode persisting over the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei megacity cluster from November 26 December 1, 2015. During this event, daily mean PM2.5 exceeded 500 μg/m3. We found that local emissions were main source of Beijing and Hebei in early formational stage episode. accumulation regionally transported, highly aged secondary inorganic aerosols (SIA) along foot mountains responsible (60%) for...
Currently, many challenges are faced in simulating ozone(O3), sulfate(SO42-), and nitrate(NO3-) concentrations over East Asia, particularly the overestimation of surface O3 NO3- underestimation SO42- concentration during haze episodes. In this study, we examined radiative heterogeneous chemical effects aerosols by incorporating recently reported mechanisms, including self-amplifying formation, dinitrogen pentoxide (N2O5) hydrolysis, a reaction converting gaseous nitric acid (HNO3) to oxide...

This study developed a combined method to investigate source types PM2.5 and its regions during winter 2016 Beijing, which include the receptor model (positive matrix factorization, PMF), footprint an quality model. The PMF was performed with high-time-resolution measurements trace elements, water soluble ions, organic carbon...

A new method quantifying forms inorganic (SIA) using Nested Air Quality Prediction Modeling System was proposed. The contribution nonlocal emissions to SIA in receptor region divided into three parts: (1) chemically formed by source regions; (2) during transport; (3) region, representing In North China Plain, precursors produced are two main forms....

We developed a new modeling framework to simulate aerosol microphysics by incorporating volatility basis-set (VBS) organic (OA) module into three-dimensional (3-D) atmospheric transport model, namely, Nested Air Quality Prediction Modeling System with an Advanced Particle Microphysics (NAQPMS + APM). The model calculates not only the condensation of sulfuric acid, nitrate, and ammonium coagulation five types particles (namely secondary, sea salt, dust, black carbon particles) but also...

Abstract. Vertical distributions of dicarboxylic acids, oxoacids, α-dicarbonyls and other organic tracer compounds in fine aerosols (PM2.5) were investigated at three heights (8, 120 260 m) based on a 325 m meteorological tower urban Beijing the summer 2015. Results showed that concentrations oxalic acid (C2), predominant diacid, more abundant (210±154 ng m−3) (220±140 than those ground surface (160±90 m−3). Concentrations phthalic (Ph) decreased with increase height, indicating local...
