Due to its rapidly expanding economic and industrial developments, China is currently
considered to be the engine of the world's economic growth. China's economic growth has …

To investigate the seasonal characteristics of submicron aerosol (PM1) in Beijing urban
areas, a high‐resolution time‐of‐flight aerosol‐mass‐spectrometer (HR‐ToF‐AMS) was …

Air pollution is a major environmental concern during all seasons in the megacity of Beijing,
China. Here we present the results from a winter study that was conducted from 21 …

Volatile organic compounds (VOC) are important precursors of secondary organic aerosols
(SOA). The pollution processes in Beijing were investigated from 18th October to 6th …

New particle formation (NPF) studies in China were summarized comprehensively in this
paper. NPF frequency, formation rate, and particle growth rate were closely compared …

Concentrations of carbonyl compounds and non-methane hydrocarbons (NMHCs) were
measured at an urban site in Beijing from 16 to 19 August 2006 during an ozone episode. Of …

An Aerodyne Aerosol Chemical Speciation Monitor (ACSM) was first deployed in Beijing,
China for characterization of summer organic and inorganic aerosols. The non-refractory …

The source apportionment of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) was examined using
receptor models (positive matrix factorization and chemical mass balance) and a chemical …

Air pollution exposure is associated with a range of adverse health impacts. Knowledge of
the chemical components and sources of air pollution most responsible for these health …

Additional size-resolved chemical information is needed before the physicochemical
characteristics and sources of airborne particles can be understood; however, this …
