Enhanced secondary pollution offset reduction of primary emissions during COVID-19 lockdown in China

Xin Huang et al.

Summary: The study indicates that during the COVID lockdown, haze was mainly driven by enhanced secondary pollution, particularly due to the significant decrease in NOx emissions from transportation. This highlights the need for a coordinated and balanced strategy to control multiple pollutants for haze mitigation.

High rise in carbonaceous aerosols under very low anthropogenic emissions over eastern Himalaya, India: Impact of lockdown for COVID-19 outbreak

Abhijit Chatterjee et al.

Summary: The study found that during the global COVID-19 lockdown period, concentrations of organic carbon and elemental carbon in the high altitude Himalayan atmosphere significantly increased, mainly due to the rise in O-3 levels leading to increased formation of secondary organic carbon, while very low anthropogenic emissions also contributed to the organic carbon from biogenic sources.

Source apportionment of PM2.5 and sulfate formation during the COVID-19 lockdown in a coastal city of southeast China

Youwei Hong et al.

Summary: The study investigated the chemical compositions of PM2.5 during the COVID-19 pandemic in a coastal city of southeast China and the impact of emission control measures on atmospheric conditions. Results showed a decrease in concentrations of PM2.5 and other air pollutants during the city lockdown, with an increase in sulfate oxidation rate and contribution of secondary formation. This highlights the complex relationship between secondary formation and primary sources of pollutants in the atmosphere under relatively clean conditions.

PM2.5 characterization of primary and secondary organic aerosols in two urban-industrial areas in the East Mediterranean

Marc Fadel et al.

Summary: Organic aerosols in PM2.5 were analyzed in Zouk Mikael and Fiaa, Lebanon over a one-year period, showing higher concentrations of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) at Zouk Mikael than Fiaa, attributed to the presence of a power plant. Phthalates were identified for the first time in Lebanon with high concentrations at both sites. The study suggested strong anthropogenic influences on the aerosols in both locations, with different patterns observed between winter and summer seasons.

What does the China's economic recovery after COVID-19 pandemic mean for the economic growth and energy consumption of other countries?

Qiang Wang et al.

Summary: China is the first major economy to show signs of recovery after the economic slowdown induced by the COVID-19 pandemic. The study findings suggest that China's economic recovery post-COVID-19 has the most significant impact on the economic growth of upper-middle-income countries and on the energy consumption of high-income countries.

Qiang Wang et al.

Summary: The integration of digital technologies and public health is crucial in combating the COVID-19 pandemic. China's success in avoiding a second wave of the pandemic is attributed to the extensive integration of digital technologies and public health. The future prospects of digital healthcare are promising, yet challenges such as data delays, fragmentation, privacy security, and data security vulnerabilities need to be addressed.
