Characteristics of PM2.5 pollution in Beijing after the improvement of air quality

Xiaojuan Huang et al.

Summary: Following the implementation of strict clean air policies in Beijing, the study found a decrease in PM2.5 concentration, with spring having the highest levels. Secondary nitrate and vehicular emissions were identified as the main sources of PM2.5. Contributions from coal combustion decreased significantly, while contributions from EC and NO3- increased during weekends.
