Can mitigating only particle mass, as the existing air quality measures do, ultimately lead to
reduction in ultrafine particles (UFP)? The aim of this study was to provide a broader urban …

In the last decade, North China (NC) has been one of the most populated and polluted
regions in the world. The regional air pollution has had a serious impact on people's health; …

Beijing is suffering from serious particulate matter pollution, and the atmosphere boundary
layer (ABL) has important direct and indirect effects on human activities. This research …

Urbanization has been acknowledged as an important driver of PM 2.5 pollution, but the

Regional transport plays a significant role in the air pollution in China, which is
characterized by diverse emission sources and distinct distributions. To improve the …

The climatological variation of aerosol properties and the planetary boundary layer (PBL)
during 2013–2015 over the Yangtze River Delta (YRD) region were investigated by …

As an important measure to abate ship-source air emissions, the establishment of Emission
Control Area (ECA) has been adopted not only at international level, but also at national and …

Urbanization leads to widespread urban pollution island effect. Improving our understanding
of this phenomenon and its coupling with urbanization is a matter of public concern. In this …
