An interdisciplinary research consortium led by Prof. HE Hong from the Research Center for Eco- Environmental Sciences, Chinese Academy of Sciences has been tracing the culprits of the toxic haze above China. In about ten years＇ time, they will strive to identify the hazardous particulates in the air, figure out where they come from and how they evolve, and help policymakers develop targeted and cost-effective measures to curb the pollution. As Prof. HE told BCAS reporter XIN Ling in an interview, ＂China＇s haze problem is very sophisticated, involving multiple pollution sources including coal burning, car emission and sandstorm＇; There are plenty of challenges in understanding and managing the situation. Primary research results showed that NOx plays a key role in haze formation, so the control over vehicle exhaust, especially diesel exhaust, should become a policy priority in the future.
