Atmospheric circulation anomaly over mid- and high-latitudes and its association with severe persistent haze events in Beijing

Wenli Hua et al.

Summary: This study investigates the characteristics of winter persistent haze events (SPHEs) in Beijing and their association with synoptic atmospheric circulation anomalies. The results reveal that a dipole pattern with positive geopotential height anomalies over northeastern China and negative height anomalies over West Siberia is responsible for the occurrence of SPHEs. Persistent negative height anomalies over the mid-to high-latitudes areas of Eurasia act as precursor anomalous events (PAEs) for haze occurrence in Beijing. The occurrence of PAEs serves as a reliable precursor signal for severe haze in Beijing, occurring 5-8 days prior to the increase in PM2.5 concentration and haze frequency.

Intraseasonal variation of the northeast Asian anomalous anticyclone and its impacts on PM2.5 pollution in the North China Plain in early winter

Xiadong An et al.

Summary: The study investigates the impact of the northeast Asian anomalous anticyclone (NAAA) on PM2.5 pollution in the North China Plain (NCP) during early winter. Results show that the NAAA usually forms rapidly three days prior to its peak day with a duration of eight days and its evolution is associated with Rossby waves from the North Atlantic. Moreover, the NAAA with a westward tilt is found to be mainly related to wavenumbers 3-4. Additionally, the study reveals that the probability of PM2.5 pollution lasting for at least three days in the NCP during November-January (NDJ) period is as high as 69% (80% for at least two days) from 2000 to 2021.

Tracking Air Pollution in China: Near Real-Time PM2.5 Retrievals from Multisource Data Fusion

Guannan Geng et al.

Summary: The study introduces a near real-time air pollutant database named Tracking Air Pollution in China (TAP), which combines ground observations, satellite AOD, and other data sources to provide daily 10 km resolution PM2.5 data. The database utilizes a two-stage machine learning model to estimate PM2.5 concentrations, improving performance at high pollution levels and filling gaps in AOD data. The availability of daily PM2.5 data for tracking changes over time and long-term records since 2000 will support policy assessments and health impact studies.

Separating emission and meteorological contributions to long-term PM2.5 trends over eastern China during 2000-2018

Qingyang Xiao et al.

Summary: The study by the authors focused on analyzing the contributions of meteorology and emissions to long-term trends in PM2.5 pollution from 2000 to 2018 in China. It was found that while emissions played a dominant role in the long-term trend of PM2.5 concentration, meteorological conditions also had a notable influence, particularly in affecting interannual variabilities in meteorology-associated PM2.5.
