Reactive nitrogen chemistry in aerosol water as a source of sulfate during haze events in China
Yafang Cheng,Guangjie Zheng,Guangjie Zheng,Chao Wei,Qing Mu,Bo Zheng,Zhibin Wang,Meng Gao,Qiang Zhang,Kebin He,Gregory R. Carmichael,Ulrich Pöschl,Hang Su +12 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the missing source of sulfate and particulate matter can be explained by reactive nitrogen chemistry in aerosol water, where the alkaline aerosol components trap SO 2, which is oxidized by NO 2 to form sulfate, whereby high reaction rates are sustained by the high neutralizing capacity of the atmosphere.

Severe Surface Ozone Pollution in China: A Global Perspective
Xiao Lu,Jiayun Hong,Lin Zhang,Owen R. Cooper,Owen R. Cooper,Martin G. Schultz,Xiaobin Xu,Tao Wang,Meng Gao,Yuanhong Zhao,Yuanhang Zhang +10 more
TL;DR: Wang et al. as mentioned in this paper used the latest 5-year (2013-2017) surface ozone measurements from the Chinese monitoring network, combined with the recent Tropospheric Ozone Assessment Report (TOAR) database for other industrialized regions such as Japan, South Korea, Europe, and the United States (JKEU).

Health impacts and economic losses assessment of the 2013 severe haze event in Beijing area
Meng Gao,Sarath K. Guttikunda,Gregory R. Carmichael,Yuesi Wang,Zirui Liu,Charles O. Stanier,Pablo E. Saide,Man Yu +7 more
TL;DR: Results of the economic losses assessments suggest that the haze in January 2013 might lead to 253.8 million US$ losses, accounting for 0.08% (95% CI: (0.05%, 0.1%) of the total 2013 annual gross domestic product (GDP) of Beijing.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rapid Increases in Warm-Season Surface Ozone and Resulting Health Impact in China since 2013
TL;DR: Wang et al. as discussed by the authors reported quantitative estimates of the warm-season (April-September) surface ozone trends and resulting health impacts at Chinese cities in 2013-2019, and derived both the parametric and nonparametric linear trends for 12 ozone metrics relevant to human health and vegetation exposure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fine-particle pH for Beijing winter haze as inferred from different thermodynamic equilibrium models
Shaojie Song,Meng Gao,Weiqi Xu,Jingyuan Shao,Jingyuan Shao,Guo-Liang Shi,Shuxiao Wang,Yuxuan Wang,Yuxuan Wang,Yele Sun,Michael B. McElroy +10 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors calculated pH values with different assumptions with regard to model inputs and particle phase states and found that the large discrepancy is due primarily to differences in the model assumptions adopted in previous studies.
