Background Exposure to particulate matter with aerodynamic diameters less than 2.5 µm
(PM2. 5) may increase the risk of 10-year atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) …

Air quality has significantly improved in China; however, new challenges emerge when dust
weather is combined with haze pollution during spring in northern China. On March 15 …

Interactions between atmospheric aerosols, clouds, and precipitation impact Earth's
radiative balance and air quality, yet remain poorly constrained. Precipitating clouds serve …

Abstract Purpose of Review Complex air pollution has spread in the conurbation areas of
China along with chemically complicated air pollution processes. Classic secondary …

Secondary inorganic aerosols (SIAs) are major components of fine particulate matter (PM
2.5), having substantial implications for climate and air quality in an urban environment. In …

Wind-blown dust (WBD) emitted by the Earth's surface due to sandblasting can potentially
have important effects on both climate and human health via interaction with solar and …

Hydroxymethanesulfonate (HMS) has been found to be an abundant organosulfur aerosol
compound in the Bei**g-Tian**-Hebei (BTH) region with a measured maximum daily mean …

This study comprehensively investigated the impact of dust storms (DSs) on downstream
cities, by selecting representative DS events. In this paper, we discussed the characteristics …

Sulfate formation is arguably the most important chemical process during urban haze events
in China; however, the complex mechanism of sulfate formation from SO2 remains …

Severe haze in Bei**g is characterized by the rapid formation of sulfate via the multiphase
oxidation of SO2. While many factors, including aerosol oxidants and atmospheric variables …
