One-year record of organic and elemental carbon in fine particles in downtown Beijing and Shanghai
Weekly PM2.5 samples were collected for one year (1999–2000) in Beijing and Shanghai and the carbonaceous species analyzed to investigate and compare their time series patterns and possible sources in the two biggest cities of China. Weekly carbonaceous concentrations varied in wide ranges with 8.6–59μg m−3 for OC and 1.5– 25.4μg m−3 for EC in Beijing, and with 5.1–38.4μg m−3 for OC and 2.3–13....
متن کاملSize-resolved aerosol chemical analysis of extreme haze pollution events during early 2013 in urban Beijing, China.
Using size-resolved filter sampling and chemical characterization, high concentrations of water-soluble ions, carbonaceous species and heavy metals were found in both fine (PM2.1) and coarse (PM2.1-9) particles in Beijing during haze events in early 2013. Even on clear days, average mass concentration of submicron particles (PM1.1) was several times higher than that previously measured in most ...
متن کاملSource apportionment of PM2.5 in Beijing by positive matrix factorization
Air pollution associated with atmospheric fine particulate matter (PM2.5, i.e., particles with an aerodynamic diameter of 2.5mm or less) is a serious problem in Beijing, China. To provide a better understanding of the sources contributing to PM2.5, 24-h samples were collected at 6-day intervals in January, April, July, and October in 2000 at five locations in the Beijing metropolitan area. Both...
متن کاملHighly time-resolved chemical characterization of atmospheric fine particles during 2010 Shanghai World Expo
Shanghai, with a population of over 20 million, is the largest mega-city in China. Rapidly increasing industrial and metropolitan emissions have deteriorated its air quality in the past decades, with fine particle pollution as one of the major issues. However, systematic characterization of atmospheric fine particles with advanced measurement techniques has been very scarce in Shanghai. During ...
متن کاملCCN predictions on particles containing mixed organic and elemental carbon using Köhler theory
Anthropogenic atmospheric aerosols play a large role in climate change by acting as cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) and influencing cloud reflectivity. The ability of anthropogenic aerosols to contribute to cloud droplet activation depends on particle size and composition. Up to 90% of fine particle mass (PM2.5) is composed of carbonaceous (elemental and organic carbon) compounds, which play a ...
