英文摘要 | Field burning of crop residue in early summer releases a large amount of pollutants into the atmosphere with significant impacts on the air quality and aerosol properties in the North China Plain (NCP). In order to investigate the influence of this regional anthropogenic activity on molecular characteristics of organic aerosols, PM2.5 filter samples were collected with a 3 h interval at a rural site of NCP from 10 to 25 June 2013 and analyzed for more than 100 organic tracer compounds, including both primary (n-alkanes, fatty acids/alcohols, sugar compounds, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, hopanes, and phthalate esters) and secondary organic aerosol (SOA) tracers (phthalic acids, isoprene-, alpha-/beta-pinene, beta-caryophyllene, and toluene-derived products), as well as organic carbon (OC), elemental carbon (EC), and water-soluble organic carbon (WSOC). Total concentrations of the measured organics ranged from 177 to 6248 ng m(-3) (mean 1806 +/- 1308 ng m(-3)) during the study period, most of which were contributed by sugar compounds, followed by fatty acids and fatty alcohols. Levoglucosan (240 +/- 288 ng m(-3)) was the most abundant single compound and strongly correlated with OC and WSOC, suggesting that biomass burning (BB) is an important source of summertime organic aerosols in this rural region. Based on the analysis of fire spots and backward trajectories of air masses, two representative periods were classified, which are (1) Period 1 (P1), 13 June 21:00-16 June at 15:00 CST China Standard Time), when air masses were uniformly distributed from the southeast part of NCP, where intensive open-field biomass burning occurred; and (2) Period 2 (P2), 22 June at 12:00 to 24 June at 06:00 CST, which is representative of local emission. Nearly all the measured PM components showed much higher concentrations in P1 than in P2. Although n-alkanes, fatty acids, and fatty alcohols presented similar temporal-diurnal variations as those of levoglucosan throughout the entire period, their molecular distributions were more dominated by high molecular weight (HMW) compounds in P1, demonstrating an enhanced contribution from BB emissions. In contrast, intensive BB emission in P1 seems to have limited influence on the concentrations of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), hopanes, and phthalate esters. Both 3-hydroxyglutaric acid and beta-caryophyllinic acid showed strong linearly correlations with levoglucosan (R-2 = 0.72 and 0.80, respectively), indicating that BB is also an important source for terpene-derived SOA formation. A tracer-based method was used to estimate the distributions of biomass-burning OC, fungal-spore OC, and secondary organic carbon (SOC) derived from isoprene, alpha-/beta-pinene, beta-caryophyllene, and toluene in the different periods. The results showed that the contribution of biomassburning OC to total OC in P1 (27.6 %) was 1.7 times that in P2 (17.1 %). However, the contribution of SOC from oxidation of the four kinds of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) increased slightly from 16.3 % in P1 to 21.1 % in P2. |
