[Difference in PM Pollution and Transport Characteristics Between Urban and Suburban Areas].

Based on multi-source observation data, such as lidar ceilometer, aircraft AMDAR, and conventional sites, combined with numerical simulation (CAMx-PSAT), this study took the typical cities of the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region-Beijing (BJ) urban area and suburbs (Miyun) and Shijiazhuang (SJZ) urban area and suburbs (Pingshan) as the case study areas. The differences in boundary layer height between urban areas and suburbs (ΔPBLH), surface PM mass concentration (ΔSurf_PM), vertical PM mass concentration (ΔVert_PM), and transmission flux intensity and height distribution characteristics were analyzed. The results showed:due to factors such as anthropogenic heat sources, short-wave radiation, and thermal turbulence, the annual average planetary boundary layer height in urban areas was 8%-29% higher than that in the suburbs, and in different seasons, the monthly average planetary boundary layer height in urban areas was 2% (April in SJZ)-47% (July in BJ) higher than that in the suburbs.
