摘要
The dominant transportation and accumulation patterns of heavy PM2. 5 pollution events over the Yangtze River middle basin were identified based on the obliquely rotated T-mode principal component analysis (PCT) method and the daily mean surface pressure. The heavy PM2. 5 pollution events over the Yangtze River middle basin during 2015-2019 were divided into four patterns, namely, PCT1: high-pressure bottom transport pattern (number of days: 41 d, accounting for 55. 4% of the total heavy PM2. 5 pollution days), PCT2: low-pressure convergence accumulation pattern (12 d, 16. 2%), PCT3: high-pressure static stability accumulation pattern (11 d, 14. 9%), and PCT4: high-pressure rear transport pattern (10 d, 13. 5%). Regional transport patterns (PCT1 and PCT4) accounted for 69% of the total heavy PM2. 5 pollution days and were the major pattern of heavy PM2. 5 pollution in the Yangtze River middle basin. PCT1 occurred most frequently among the four patterns, accompanied with strong northerly winds, which could drive the rapid transportation of pollutants from the upstream areas and cause the explosive increase in PM2. 5 over the Yangtze River middle basin. The PM2. 5 pollution events in the transport corridor, including Xiangyang, Jingmen, and Jingzhou, exhibited a 12-hour lag feature. Most parts of northern China were the source of PM2. 5, especially in central and northern Henan and western Shandong. The PCT4 transport pattern was featured by the low-level easterly winds, and the pollution level rose quickly. The PCT2 and PCT3 were characterized by the low ground wind speed, associated with the low-level horizontal convergence and subsidence. Such synoptic conditions were favorable for the accumulation of local PM2. 5 pollution, and the pollution rise rate was slower, and the duration was longer than those of other patterns. © 2022 Science Press.
