TL;DR: In this article, the authors show that black carbon aerosols play a key role in modifying the PBL meteorology and hence enhancing the haze pollution in megacities in China.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors show that the surface wind speed associated with the east Asian monsoon has significantly weakened in both winter and summer in the recent three decades, and they found that the monsoon wind speed is also highly correlated with incoming solar radiation at the surface.

TL;DR: In this paper, an analysis of the year-month mean maximum and minimum surface thermometric record for three large countries in the Northern Hemisphere (the contiguous United States, the Soviet Union, and the People's Republic of China) is presented.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present an overview of 1 yr measurements of ozone (O3) and fine particular matter (PM2.5) and related trace gases at a recently developed regional background site, the Station for Observing Regional Processes of the Earth System (SORPES), in the western part of the Yangtze River Delta (YRD) in eastern China.

TL;DR: It is shown that a high concentration of particulate matter will enhance the stability of an urban boundary layer, which in turn decreases the boundary layer height and consequently cause further increases in PM concentrations.
