Volatile Organic Compound (VOC) measurements in the Pearl River Delta (PRD) region, China
We measured levels of ambient volatile organic compounds (VOCs) at seven sites in the Pearl River Delta (PRD) region of China during the Air Quality Monitoring Campaign spanning 4 October to 3 November 2004. Two of the sites, Guangzhou (GZ) and Xinken (XK), were intensive sites at which we collected multiple daily canister samples. The observations reported here provide a look at the VOC distri...
متن کاملGround-level ozone in the Pearl River Delta and the roles of VOC and NO(x) in its production.
In many regions of China, very rapid economic growth has been accompanied by air pollution caused by vehicle emissions. In one of these regions, the Pearl River Delta, the variations of ground-level ozone and its precursors were investigated. Overall, the ambient concentrations of NO(2) increased quickly between 1995 and 1996, but then slightly decreased due to stringent nitrogen oxide (NO(x)) ...
متن کاملHotspot of glyoxal over the Pearl River delta seen from the OMI satellite instrument: implications for emissions of aromatic hydrocarbons
The Pearl River delta (PRD) is a densely populated hub of industrial activity located in southern China. OMI (Ozone Monitoring Instrument) satellite observations reveal a large hotspot of glyoxal (CHOCHO) over the PRD that is almost twice as large as any other in Asia. Formaldehyde (HCHO) and NO2 observed by OMI are also high in the PRD but no more than in other urban/industrial areas of China....
متن کاملImpacts of urbanization on net primary productivity in the Pearl River Delta, China
Great changes in land use/land cover from rapid urbanization have occurred in the PearlRiver Delta, China. As the primary cause of land development in the urbanization process,urban expansion has mostly occurred on land with higher NPP, significantly impacting theregional ecosystems. The primary purpose of this study was to reveal the impacts of urbanexpansion on the regional NPP. The land cove...
متن کاملInteractive comment on “Nighttime observation and chemistry of HOx in the Pearl River Delta and Beijing in summer 2006” by K. D. Lu et al
The authors discuss three different mechanisms that could explain the observations. These include as yet unknown HOx recycling reactions, similar to that used to explain large daytime concentrations of HOx from the same campaigns; a source of HOx from nighttime ozonolysis reactions of highly reactive biogenic VOCs; and transport of radical reservoirs from a layer aloft to the surface. None of t...
