The observations show an increase in vertical column densities (VCDs) and volume mixing ratios (VMRs) for both HCHO and CHOCHO concentrations during periods of biomass combustion. The VCDs of HCHO and CHOCHO from TROPOMI are in good agreement with the MAX-DOAS observations. (<em>R</em><sup>2</sup><sub>HCHO</sub> = 0.71; <em>R</em><sup>2</sup><sub>CHOCHO</sub> = 0.70). Regarding seasonal variations, HCHO predominantly occupies the upper layer (400-800 m) during the biomass burning, possibly attributed to the formation of secondary HCHO as the plume ascends during combustion. CHOCHO is primarily found in the lower layer (0-200 m), suggesting a longer lifespan for HCHO compared to CHOCHO, preventing the latter from diffusing to higher altitudes. Concerning the daily variation patterns, both HCHO and CHOCHO VMRs exhibited peaks at 9:00 and 13:00, which were attributed to the nighttime accumulation and midday oxidation. Furthermore, we also investigated the sources of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) using the CHOCHO to HCHO ratio (<em>R</em><sub>GF</sub>). During the period of biomass burning, there are minimal differences in the daily R<sub>GF</sub> across layers, indicating that biomass burning is the predominant source. During the non-biomass burning period, the daily R<sub>GF</sub> shows significant differences among layers, indicating that emissions from biological and anthropogenic sources primarily contribute during the period.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":15788,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Environmental Sciences-china","volume":"152 ","pages":"Pages 328-339"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141244501","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, we characterized the chemical compositions and size distributions of BC-containing particles during the cold season of 2022 in Beijing using state-of-the-art instruments capable of exclusively measuring BC-containing particles. The optical properties of BC-containing particles were further calculated based on the Mie theory.

Water-soluble organics and transition metals might potentially exert significant influence on particle OP. O<sub>3</sub> aging notably decreased the OP of PM<sub>2.5</sub> particles, possibly due to the oxidation of highly DTT-active components into low redox-active small molecules. Moreover, the evolution of OP in different PM<sub>2.5</sub> components, including methanol-soluble and insoluble fractions, exhibited distinct responses to O<sub>3</sub> aging for source-oriented PM<sub>2.5</sub>. Additionally, differences in chemical composition between fresh and aged PM<sub>2.5</sub> were further elucidated through measurements of component-dependent hygroscopic behaviors and phase transitions. This study systematically delineates variances in the toxic potential of fresh and O<sub>3</sub>-aged PM<sub>2.5</sub> from various anthropogenic sources. The findings highlight the intrinsic compositional dependence of particle OP and provide essential insights for assessing the health effects of source-oriented PM<sub>2.5</sub>, as well as for formulating human health protection policies.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":15788,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Environmental Sciences-china","volume":"151 ","pages":"Pages 608-615"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140778054","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
