Ozone pollution in China: A review of concentrations, meteorological influences, chemical precursors, and effects
TL;DR: This review summarizes the main findings from published papers on the characteristics and sources and processes of ozone and ozone precursors in the boundary layer of urban and rural areas of China, including concentration levels, seasonal variation, meteorology conducive to photochemistry and pollution transport, key production and loss processes, ozone dependence on nitrogen oxides and volatile organic compounds, and the effects of ozone on crops and human health.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The aim of this work was to comprehensively review most of the studies published on this topic in China, including literature concerning field measurements, laboratory studies and the impacts of BB indoors and outdoors in China to provide a basis for formulation of policies and regulations by policy makers in China.
Journal ArticleDOI
Simulation study on the impact of tree-configuration, planting pattern and wind condition on street-canyon's micro-climate and thermal comfort
TL;DR: In this article, numerical experiments involving street canyons with embedded trees of varying aspect ratio (ART), leaf area index (LAI), and trunk height under different wind conditions were conducted using a micro-meteorological model, ENVI-met.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impact assessment of biomass burning on air quality in Southeast and East Asia during BASE-ASIA
Kan Huang,Joshua S. Fu,Joshua S. Fu,N. Christina Hsu,Yang Gao,Xinyi Dong,Si-Chee Tsay,Yun Fat Lam +7 more
TL;DR: A synergy of numerical simulation, ground-based measurement and satellite observation was applied to evaluate the impact of biomass burning originating from Southeast Asia (SE Asia) within the framework of NASA's 2006 Biomass burning Aerosols in Southeast Asia: Smoke Impact Assessment (BASE-ASIA) as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Impacts of future climate change and effects of biogenic emissions on surface ozone and particulate matter concentrations in the United States
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the potential impacts of global cli- mate change and emissions on regional air quality using CMAQ and found that the impact of global climate change has shown insignificant effect, while the impacts of an- ticipated future emissions reduction account for the major contribution of overall PM2.5 reductions.
