Abstract:

Using the hourly observation data of precipitation, wind, and PM2.5 in Tai'an from 2018 to 2019, the impacts of precipitation and wind on PM2.5 concentration as well as the source of PM2.5 were analyzed.The results showed that precipitation has a certain scavenging effect on PM2.5.The average mass concentration of PM2.5 on rainy days is about 7.2% lower than that on non-rainy days, especially in autumn and winter.The scavenging rate of PM2.5 by precipitation is related to precipitation intensity, initial PM2.5 concentration before precipitation, and precipitation duration.The scavenging rate of PM2.5 is higher than 40% when the precipitation intensity is greater than 4 mm·h-1.The PM2.5 concentration tends to rebound under conditions of precipitation intensity < 2 mm·h-1, or the initial PM2.5 concentration < 75 μg·m-3 and precipitation intensity < 1 mm·h-1, or the initial PM2.5 concentration within the range of 75-100 μg·m-3 and precipitation duration < 5 h.Different wind directions and wind speeds show different impacts on the scavenging of haze particles in Tai'an.The west-southwesterly wind and the east-northeasterly wind are more likely to cause haze pollution in the Tai'an area.During heavy pollution, the southerly winds > 5 m·s-1 and the northerly winds > 3 m·s-1 can effectively remove pollutants.PM2.5 is mainly transported from Guangxi-Hu'nan-Jiangxi provinces, southern Anhui province, and northern Zhejiang province to Tai'an by southwesterly airflows, and less contribution is from the local emissions.
