Deskripsi
In order to investigate the chemical characteristics of aerosol pollution including PM<sub>1</sub> and PM<sub>2.5</sub> in Handan, the offline sampling campaign was conducted and the concentrations of total water-soluble inorganic ions (TWSI), carbonaceous components (OC and EC) were analyzed. The average concentrations were 88.5 μg/m<sup>3</sup> for PM<sub>1</sub> and 122 μg/m<sup>3</sup> for PM<sub>2.5</sub>, and the corresponding ratios of PM<sub>1</sub> versus PM<sub>2.5</sub> on non-pollution, mild-moderate pollution and heavy pollution were 0.67, 0.70 and 0.77, respectively. TWSI and OC accounted for 43.2% and 15.4% in PM<sub>1</sub>, 41.8% and 16.0% in PM<sub>2.5</sub>. Secondary components in PM<sub>2.5</sub> and PM<sub>1</sub> increased with heavy pollution, SNA (SO<sub>4</sub><sup>2−</sup>, NO<sub>3</sub><sup>−</sup> and NH<sub>4</sub><sup>+</sup>) was enriched in PM<sub>1</sub> but SOC (Secondary Organic Carbon) was more enriched in PM<sub>1–2.5</sub>. Furthermore, for evaluating the effect of aerosol feedback the WRF-Chem model was applied to identify the aerosol-radiation interaction of aerosol feedback influence on the PM<sub>2.5</sub> concentration and various meteorological factors in Handan. The results indicated that the aerosol radiative effects will result in an average 32.62%(36.18 W/m<sup>2</sup>) decrease in downward short wave flux at ground surface (SWDOWN), an average 17.52% (39.15 m) and 0.16% (0.44 K) decrease in planetary boundary layer height(PBLH) and surface temperature (T2). The wind speed at 10 m (WS) and relative humidity (RH) will be increased by about 4.16%(0.11 m/s) and 1.89% (0.78%), respectively.
