[Transport Characteristics of Air Pollution in Tianjin Based on Weather Background].

Regional transport is an important factor when considering the prevention and control of air pollution. The aim of this study was to provide support for the joint prevention and control of air pollution in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region. With a focus on an analysis of the relationship between regional transport and meteorological conditions based on the weather background, an atmospheric chemical model was developed to quantitatively estimate the impact of regional transport on Tianjin from October 2016 to September 2017. The results showed that the contribution percentage of regional transport in cities in plains in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region was significantly higher than in cities in mountains. The local contribution of PM in the Tianjin area was 62.9% and the contribution of regional transport was 37.1%. This was mainly affected by transmissions of Chanzhou, Langfang, central and southern Hebei, Beijing, Tanshan, and Shandong. Regional transport was the most significant from April to June, the weakest from July to August, and the highest contributor to local emissions. Regional transport was closely related to weather situation, wind field, precipitation, and other meteorological conditions. Post-high pressure and pre-frontal low pressure were the two types of pollution weather with the highest proportion in regional transport, and the impact of air pollution transport under the southwest wind, westerly wind and south wind was the most apparent. Wind speed of 2-3 m·s was beneficial to the regional transport of PM, and precipitation above 5 mm will effectively reduce the regional transport of air pollutants. For different pollution types and heavy pollution stages, the contribution of regional transport was the most apparent in light pollution weather, being 20.5% higher than the average. The heavy pollution weather was controlled by static stable air mass, and because of the migration of high PM concentrations, pollution air mass in the surrounding area had a significant impact on the accumulation of pollution and transport in the region. The contribution ratio of PM transport in the heavy pollution period was more than the average and was approximately 10% and 15% higher. In the process of heavy pollution, the proportion of transport contribution in the initial accumulation stage and peak stage were higher than in other periods, and 14.5% and 19.5% higher than in the outbreak stage. The contribution of local emissions in the outbreak stage was more significant, being 9.9% higher than average.
