Beschreibung
This book systematically investigates the characteristics, distribution, transformation, source and sink of aerosols over typical regions in China based on long-term observations, revealing that the secondary aerosol, dust, and biomass burning are the main causes of widespread smog. It proposes that organic aerosol, sulfate, nitrate and black carbon are the main extinction components in smog. In addition it quantitatively determines the influence of transport on local and regional air quality, and argues that traffic emissions are the triggering factor for the wide range of smog in China. It also demonstrates the mixing and interaction mechanism of dust with anthropogenic pollutants in long-distance transport and the air-sea exchange. The research findings and the large number of first-hand data provided make this a valuable reference resource for those involved in atmospheric science, especially basic atmospheric chemistry and aerosol science research.
Reveals the formation mechanism of the heavy smog over China in detail using new research methods
Focuses on the mixing of natural dust and pollution aerosols in long-distance transport, proving that the air quality is not a local, but a regional or global issue Combines long-term observations with a short-term case study to draw reliable conclusions
Provides valuable guidance on how to control air pollution and improve air quality in typical regions of China
