Chemical composition, water content and size distribution of aerosols during different development stages of regional haze episodes over the North China Plain

Lijuan Shen et al.

Summary: This study investigated a regional haze pollution episode from Nov. 9 to 16, 2018, and found that aerosol properties such as size distribution, composition, and sources of carbonaceous aerosols varied in different stages, with nitrate being the predominant pollutant. The study highlights the importance of understanding the physicochemical characteristics of aerosols in different haze stages for effective pollution control and management.

Impacts of local versus long-range transported aerosols on PM10 concentrations in Seoul, Korea: An estimate based on 11-year PM10 and lidar observations

Do-Hyeon Park et al.

Summary: This study developed a novel method to estimate the contributions of long-range transport (LRT) and local pollution (LP) to the PM10 concentration in Seoul, finding that the overall contributions to nighttime high-PM10 episodes were approximately 32% and 47% respectively. The contributions varied with seasonal synoptic circulations, with LRT events contributing between 18% and 43% and LP events between 39% and 69% to the PM10 concentration in Seoul.

Explosive Secondary Aerosol Formation during Severe Haze in the North China Plain

Jianfei Peng et al.

Summary: Frequent severe haze events with high levels of fine aerosols in the North China Plain have profound impacts on human health, weather, and climate. The haze formation mechanisms involve sources, formation, and transformation of aerosol species. Recent advances have shown the importance of new particle formation and aerosol growth driven by photochemistry and aqueous chemistry in understanding secondary aerosol formation.

Air humidity affects secondary aerosol formation in different pathways

Jing Ding et al.

Summary: This study found that air humidity had a significant impact on particulate chemical composition during winter haze episodes in North China Plain, with nitrate being more related to absolute humidity and sulfate being more related to relative humidity. Daytime high water vapor content and solar radiation promoted oxidation of NOx, while nighttime temperature drop favored nitric acid and N2O5 reactions.

Exploring the inorganic and organic nitrate aerosol formation regimes at a suburban site on the North China Plain

Wei Huang et al.

Summary: The study reveals that inorganic and organic nitrates in the North China Plain during winter are influenced by aerosol liquid water and aerosol acidity, with organic nitrates contributing less as haze episodes evolve. Additionally, the importance of aqueous-phase processes in nitrate formation and the contrasting effects of aerosol pH on inorganic and organic nitrate formation are highlighted in polluted periods.

Jiayun Li et al.

Summary: The study revealed that the seasonal variations in submicron particles at the Xinglong background mountainous site in the NCP are significantly influenced by aging processes and regional transport, with an increased contribution of aerosol nitrate in summer highlighting the critical importance of regional reductions in nitrogen oxide emissions for alleviating nitrate-dominated haze events over the NCP.
