Ru-Jin Huang,Yan-Lin Zhang,Carlo Bozzetti,Kin Fai Ho,Junji Cao,Yongming Han,Kaspar R. Daellenbach,Jay G. Slowik,Stephen Matthew Platt,Francesco Canonaco,Peter Zotter,Robert Wolf,Simone M. Pieber,Emily A. Bruns,Monica Crippa,Giancarlo Ciarelli,Andrea Piazzalunga,Margit Schwikowski,Gülcin Abbaszade,Jürgen Schnelle-Kreis,Ralf Zimmermann,Zhisheng An,Sönke Szidat,Urs Baltensperger,Imad El Haddad,André S. H. Prévôt +25 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that, in addition to mitigating primary particulate emissions, reducing the emissions of secondary aerosol precursors from fossil fuel combustion and biomass burning is likely to be important for controlling China’s PM2.5 levels and for reducing the environmental, economic and health impacts resulting from particulate pollution.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation of the absorption Ångström exponents for traffic and wood burning in the Aethalometer-based source apportionment using radiocarbon measurements of ambient aerosol
Peter Zotter,Peter Zotter,Hanna Herich,Hanna Herich,Martin Gysel,Imad El-Haddad,Yan-Lin Zhang,Griša Močnik,Christoph Hüglin,Urs Baltensperger,Sönke Szidat,Sönke Szidat,André S. H. Prévôt +12 more
TL;DR: In this article, the Aethalometer model was used to estimate the source-specific absorption Angstrom exponent (α) of EBC emissions from both traffic and wood burning.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fossil vs. non-fossil sources of fine carbonaceous aerosols in four Chinese cities during the extreme winter haze episode of 2013
Yan-Lin Zhang,Ru-Jin Huang,Ru-Jin Huang,I. El Haddad,Kin Fai Ho,Kin Fai Ho,J. J. Cao,Yongming Han,Peter Zotter,Carlo Bozzetti,Kaspar R. Daellenbach,Francesco Canonaco,Jay G.

TL;DR: In this paper, extremely high concentrations (i.e., 4-20 times higher than the World Health Organization guideline) of PM2.5 (particulate matter with an aerodynamic diameter) were reported during winter 2013.
Journal ArticleDOI
A versatile gas interface for routine radiocarbon analysis with a gas ion source
Lukas Wacker,Simon Fahrni,Simon Fahrni,Simon Fahrni,Irka Hajdas,M Molnár,M Molnár,H.-A. Synal,Sönke Szidat,Sönke Szidat,Yan-Lin Zhang,Yan-Lin Zhang,Yan-Lin Zhang +12 more
TL;DR: In this article, a stepping-motor-driven syringe presses a mixture of helium and sample CO2 into the gas ion source, allowing continuous and stable measurements of different kinds of samples.

Source Apportionment Using Radiocarbon and Organic Tracers for PM2.5 Carbonaceous Aerosols in Guangzhou, South China: Contrasting Local- and Regional-Scale Haze Events
Junwen Liu,Jun Li,Yan-Lin Zhang,Di Liu,Ping Ding,Chengde Shen,Kaijun Shen,Quanfu He,Xiang Ding,Xinming Wang,Duohong Chen,Soenke Szidat,Gan Zhang +12 more
TL;DR: Investigation of the atmospheric behavior of carbonaceous aerosols during hazy and normal days using radiocarbon ((14)C) and biomass burning/secondary organic aerosol (SOA) tracers during winter in Guangzhou, China found that haze episodes were formed either abruptly by local emissions or through the accumulation of particles transported from other areas.
