文摘Recently,air pollution especially fine particulate matters(PM_(2.5))and ozone(O_(3))has become a severe issue in China.In this study,we first characterized the temporal trends of PM_(2.5) and O_(3) for Beijing,Guangzhou,Shanghai,andWuhan respectively during 2018-2020.The annual mean PM2.5 has decreased by 7.82%-33.92%,while O_(3) concentration showed insignificant variations by-6.77%-4.65%during 2018-2020.The generalized additive models(GAMs)were implemented to quantify the contribution of individual meteorological factors and their gas precursors on PM_(2.5) and O_(3).On a short-term perspective,GAMs modeling shows that the daily variability of PM_(2.5) concentration is largely related to the variation of precursor gases(R=0.67-0.90),while meteorological conditions mainly affect the daily variability of O_(3) concentration(R=0.65-0.80)during 2018-2020.The impact of COVID-19 lockdown on PM_(2.5) and O_(3) concentrations were also quantified by using GAMs.During the 2020 lockdown,PM_(2.5) decreased significantly for these megacities,yet the ozone concentration showed an increasing trend compared to 2019.The GAMs analysis indicated that the contribution of precursor gases to PM_(2.5) and O_(3) changes is 3-8 times higher than that of meteorological factors.In general,GAMsmodeling on air quality is helpful to the understanding and control of PM2.5 and O3 pollution in China.
