摘要
In this study, the aerosol number size distribution in the range of 10 nm-10 μm was collected from August 16 to October 04, 2019 at Ordos using a wide-range particle spectrometer (WPS). Combined with PM (PM2.5 and PM10), pollution gases, meteorological data, and the HYSPLIT model, the characteristics and impact factors of new particle formation (NPF) were discussed. The results indicated that there were 19 NPF events during the observation period, which have different effects on diurnal variation in aerosol number concentration in different modes. The NPF events caused a sharp increase in the number concentration of nucleation and Aitken mode aerosols, but had little effect on the number concentration of accumulation and coarse mode aerosols. The temperature, wind speed, and total solar radiation during NPF days were usually higher than those in non-NPF days, and the RH during NPF days was lower. On NPF days, the mass concentrations of PM2.5, PM10, CO, and NO2 were lower than those on non-NPF days, while the mass concentrations of O3 and SO2 were higher. NPF events were observed in 40.0% of northern air masses and 29.6% of southern air masses. There were significant differences in meteorological elements in different NPF event air mass types. The southern NPF event air mass type had the lowest wind speed and the highest RH, with averages of (2.4±1.5) m•s-1and (48.8±10.8)%, respectively. The northern NPF event air mass type had the highest wind speed and total solar radiation, with averages of (4.2±1.9) m•s-1 and (664.5±255.6) W•m-2, respectively. The western air mass type of NPF event had the lowest RH, with an average of (29.8±12.7)%. The formation rates of new particles in the different air mass types of NPF events were similar, ranging from 1.5 to 1.8 cm-3•s-1. The largest growth rate was (12.7±13.6) nm•h-1 in the southern NPF event air mass type, which was 1.2 times and 1.4 times higher than the NPF events of northern air masses and western air masses. © 2020, Science Press.
