The relationship between O<sub>3</sub> and its precursors as well as meteorology was analyzed and the pollution characteristics of VOCs during the O<sub>3</sub> exceeding and non-exceeding the standard days were compared and explored. Different VOC activity evaluation methods of OFP and <i>L</i><sub>·OH</sub> were utilized to compare and analyze the key active components and species and the ratio analysis （RA） and positive matrix factorization （PMF） analysis models were used to study the apportionment contribution of VOCs. The results showed that the O<sub>3</sub> pollution in June and September in Zhengzhou was mainly due to the adverse meteorological conditions of high temperature and low humidity, strong radiation, and low wind speed, superimposed by the prominent concentrations of local VOCs and NO<sub>2</sub>, resulting in frequently high and excessive O<sub>3</sub> occurrences. The VOCs concentration in Zhengzhou during the campaign period was an average of （68.3 ± 18.4） μg·m<sup>-3</sup>, whereas it was 75.7 μg·m<sup>-3</sup> during O<sub>3</sub> exceeding standard days and 13.4 μg·m<sup>-3</sup> during O<sub>3</sub> non-exceeding days, respectively. Among the VOC species, the OVOCs was 31.6%, accounting for the highest mass fraction, followed by halogenated hydrocarbon, alkane, and aromatic hydrocarbon, and the major species were ethane, <i>n</i>-butane, dichloromethane, propane, isopentane, toluene, chloromethane, 1,2-dichloroethane, and acetylene. VOC diurnal variation indicated that the emission of VOC pollution sources in the morning, evening peak, and at night should be paid more attention. The contribution of VOCs to OFP during the campaign period was （130.5 ± 46.4） μg·m<sup>-3</sup>, and the <i>L</i><sub>·OH</sub> was （6.5 ± 2.9） s<sup>-1</sup>, among which the top 15 species with high activity were primarily acetaldehyde, isoprene, ethylene, <i>m/p</i>-xylene, toluene, hexal, isopentane, propanal, propylene, trans-2-butene, <i>etc</i>. In particular, the contributions of acetaldehyde, isoprene, ethylene, and hexal species were prominent during the O<sub>3</sub> exceeding days. Ratio analysis showed that the B/T ratio in Zhengzhou from May to September ranged from 0.05 to 5.3, with an average value of 1.1 ± 0.6, and the regional VOCs was mainly controlled by the aging air mass with possible long-distance transports. The analysis of the PMF model showed that the major pollution sources to VOC concentration in Zhengzhou were motor vehicle exhaust emission sources and industrial solvent and secondary conversion sources, contributing 25.6% and 25.8%, respectively.

An experimental study was carried out in 2020 in a dry-crop potato field in the mountainous area of southern Ningxia by setting three furrow-ridge ratios [60 cm∶30 cm （R1）, 60 cm∶45 cm （R2）, and 60 cm∶60 cm （R3）] combined with three mulching modes [ridge covered with ordinary plastic film, furrow covered with straw （DJ）, degradable water-permeable plastic film （DS）, and no mulching （DB） in furrows, respectively]. The soil hydrothermal factors, respiration rate, organic carbon content, and mineralization characteristics of potatoes during the reproductive period under different mulching modes were investigated with plain mulching without mulching （CK） as the control. The results showed that different furrow-ridge ratios combined with the mulching mode could significantly increase the soil water storage capacity in the 0-60 cm layer, and the R3DJ treatment had a better effect, with a significant increase of 24.99% compared with that in CK. The R2 treatment had the best effect of increasing temperature during the whole life cycle of the potato. The DS treatment had the effect of increasing temperature, and the DJ treatment had the effect of decreasing temperature under different mulching materials. Different furrow and ridge cover patterns could significantly increase the average soil respiration rate during the reproductive period, and the R3DS treatment was the most significant among the different furrow and ridge cover patterns, with a significant increase of 24.71% compared with that in the CK treatment. The soil organic carbon content in the 0-20 cm and 20-40 cm layers at harvest time was higher in the R2 and R1 ridges, respectively, and higher in the DB and DS treatments for different mulching materials. The soil organic carbon mineralization rate declined rapidly in the early stage of cultivation and then slowly declined and leveled off in the middle and late stages, which was highest in the R3 treatment for the three types of ridge ratios and highest in the DS treatment for different mulching materials. The fitting equations of soil respiration rate with soil hydrothermal factors during the reproductive period revealed that the synergistic effect of soil hydrothermal dual factors on soil respiration was higher than that of a soil hydrothermal single factor and that the quadratic hydrothermal dual factors could well explain 86.4% to 99.9% of the soil respiration. Correlation analysis showed that the average soil respiration rate during the whole life span of the potato was highly significantly and positively correlated with the average soil temperature in the 0-25 cm layer and the average soil organic carbon mineralization rate in the 0-40 cm layer, and the soil tempe","PeriodicalId":35937,"journal":{"name":"Huanjing Kexue/Environmental Science","volume":"45 10","pages":"6038-6049"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-10-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142509613","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

China's administrative divisions have a notable impact on the formulation and implementation of relevant policies. Therefore the carbon emissions must be calculated accurately under China's administrative divisions at different scales. The spatiotemporal change characteristics of absorption and carbon emissions can provide scientific basis for the formulation of reasonable and differentiated carbon emission reduction policies in different administrative regions in China. To this end, this study used multi-source data such as remote sensing and statistics and integrated ecological models, statistics, and GIS space analysis and other methods to analyze the spatiotemporal dynamic change characteristics of carbon emissions and carbon absorption at different administrative scales （provinces, cities, and counties） in China. The results showed that： ① The total carbon absorption of vegetation in China continued to increase from 2000 to 2021 and the average value gradually increased. Differences were observed in spatiotemporal changes in carbon emissions at different administrative scales. The spatiotemporal changes at smaller scales were more evident. Carbon emissions showed obvious spatial differences of \"high in the north and low in the south, high in the east and low in the west.\" ② The spatiotemporal distribution of CPI at the administrative scale was similar to that of carbon emissions and the overall trend was increasing annually. The pressure of carbon emissions on carbon absorption gradually weakened from the east to the central and western regions. ③ Spatiotemporal hotspot analysis showed that the overall spatial distribution of cold and hot spots in China's carbon absorption was as follows： In the spatial pattern of \"hot in the east and cold in the west,\" the spatial distribution of cold and hot spots of carbon emissions showed agglomeration characteristics. The provincial scale was primarily oscillating hotspot whereas municipal and county scales were majorly continuous hot spots. Further results revealed that： ① Carbon absorption in different regions and periods in China showed significant variability, especially in the central and eastern regions. The possibility of offsetting carbon emissions by increasing carbon absorption remains. ② At the same scale, administrative regions （such as different provinces） and lower-level administrative regions at another scale （such as different cities in the same province） showed varying degrees of variability in carbon absorption and carbon emissions.

The meteorological conditions were unfavorable for PM_2.5 reduction in the HRB from 2015 to 2018, whereas the meteorological conditions supported the PM_2.5 decrease from 2019 to 2021. From 2015 to 2021, the contribution rates of meteorological conditions to the long-term component reductions of PM_2.5, SO₄^2-, NO₃^-, NH₄⁺, OM, and BC were 28.3%, 29.1%, 31.0%, 29.3%, 27.8%, and 28.6%, respectively. The contribution rates of meteorological conditions to the long-term PM_2.5 reduction were 43.4%, 25.6%, 25.5%, and 20.6% in the HRB cities in Anhui, Shandong, Jiangsu, and Henan Provinces, respectively. With the decrease in PM_2.5 concentration in the HRB, the sulfur oxidation rate （SOR） increased significantly, while the nitrogen oxide oxidation rate （NOR） changed little.</p>","PeriodicalId":35937,"journal":{"name":"Huanjing Kexue/Environmental Science","volume":"45 10","pages":"5650-5660"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-10-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142509638","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
