TLDR

Air quality modeling and cost-benefits analysis of emission reduction scenarios and corresponding health benefits in meeting the site-specific annual PM2.5 concentrations in China are expected to be 24.0%, 44.8%, 70.8, and 85.2% of the total current mortalities when the PWA PM3.5 meets the WHO IT-1,IT-2, IT-3, and AQG, respectively.

Scientific Reports

TL;DR: Temperature was the key influencing factor for PM 2.5 and PM 10 concentrations, while nebulosity and solar radiation exerted major influences on ambient SO 2 and O 3 concentrations, and there is a moderate coupling between wind speed and NO 2 and CO concentrations.
