Impact of greening trends on biogenic volatile organic compound emissions in China from 1985 to 2022: Contributions of afforestation projects.

The rapid expansion of green areas in China has enhanced carbon sinks, but it also presents challenges regarding increased biogenic volatile organic compound (BVOC) emissions. This study examines the impact of greening trends on BVOC emissions in China from 1985 to 2001 and from 2001 to 2022, focusing on evaluating long-term trends in BVOC emissions within eight afforestation project areas during these two periods. Emission factors for 62 dominant tree species and provincial Plant Functional Types were updated.

High spatiotemporal resolution ammonia emission inventory from typical industrial and agricultural province of China from 2000 to 2020.

As a typical industrial and agricultural province, Shandong is one of China's most seriously air-polluted regions. One comprehensive ammonia emission inventory with a high spatial resolution (1 km × 1 km) for 136 county-level administrative divisions in Shandong from 2000 to 2020 is developed based on county-level activity data with the corrected and updated emission factors of seventy-seven subcategories. Annual ammonia emissions decrease from 1003.

Characterization of photochemical losses of volatile organic compounds and their implications for ozone formation potential and source apportionment during summer in suburban Jinan, China.

Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) undergo substantial photochemical losses during their transport from emission sources to receptor sites, resulting in serious implications for their source apportionment and ozone (O) formation. Based on the continuous measurements of VOCs in suburban Jinan in August 2022, the effects of photochemical losses on VOC source contributions and O formation were evaluated in this study. The observed and initial concentrations of total VOCs (TVOC) were 12.
