2011年重庆地区灰霾污染特征初步研究

本文结合2011年重庆区域灰霾统计结果表明，灰霾污染状况已逐步由重度和严重灰霾向轻中度灰霾污染过渡，污染程度得到好转。灰霾／非灰霾对比发现颗粒物PM2.5污染浓度较高，超标率较大，占颗粒物污染较大比重，且对能见度影响显著。2011年BC／PM2.5平均比值为18％左右，且比值时间序列变化趋势与全年灰霾污染总体发生趋势相符。     

能见度降低条件下楼梯上行疏散实验研究*

为探究地下公共建筑能见度降低场景中,个体及小群体楼梯上行疏散特征,在某公共建筑楼梯间进行个体疏散和小群体疏散实验,分析不同能见度条件下个体在梯段及平台上的疏散速度、疏散行为、小群体特征等关键参数。研究结果表明:梯段速度受能见度影响程度大于平台速度,在正常能见度条件下,小群体行为会对疏散移动速度产生负面影响,在低能见度条件下,小群体行为有助于提升疏散效率,表现在小群体平均速度高于群体中最慢个体速度且小群体和个体之间的速度差异较小。     

1980—2011年北京城区能见度变化趋势及突变分析

选取1980-2011年5个位于北京城区的国家级地面气象台站(海淀、朝阳、北京观象台、石景山、丰台)人工观测的大气水平能见度(下称能见度)数据,采用Mann-Kendall趋势分析及突变检验法、滑动t检验方法对能见度进行分析,以了解其变化趋势和突变.结果表明:海淀和石景山站的年均能见度呈下降趋势,而朝阳、北京观象台和丰台站则呈上升趋势;能见度最大和最小变率分别出现在朝阳和丰台站,分别为2.50、1.11 km/10 a;北京城区年均能见度(对5个台站数据平均得到)呈上升趋势,变率为0.47 km/10 a.2007-2011年北京城区平均能见度为18.5 km.突变分析表明,海淀、石景山、北京观象台和丰台站的年均能见度均出现了突变,但突变类型不尽相同,而朝阳站和北京城区的年均能见度未出现显著突变.     

2012年-2014年常州市大气污染特征分析研究

利用2012年-2014年常州市大气污染数据、气象观测数据,通过分析污染物浓度的月变化、季节变化,污染物浓度与能见度及各气象要素间的关系,得到以下结论:风对大气污染物具有较好的扩散、稀释作用,风力越大,污染物浓度越低;降水对大气污染物具有较好的冲刷、沉降作用,降水量越大,持续时间越长,污染物浓度越低;气温与污染物浓度直接关系较小,但由于夏季污染物浓度较低,表现为气温越高污染物浓度越低;冬季反之,故从整体上看气温与污染物浓度呈反相关关系;相对湿度对各污染物浓度有一定影响,在适宜的湿度条件下,水汽对污染物有较好的吸附作用,有利于颗粒物等的生成和增长.     

南京冬季大气气溶胶粒子谱分布及其对能见度的影响

2009年11～12月采用宽范围气溶胶粒径谱仪（WPS）、自动气象站和能见度仪等高分辨率仪器对南京北郊气溶胶粒子的谱分布特征与气象因子的关系及其对大气能见度的影响进行研究.结果表明,数浓度谱呈双峰分布,主峰集中在0.04～0.1μm;质量浓度谱的2个主峰位于0.5～0.7μm和2.7μm左右;表面积谱的2个主峰分别位于...     

基于MODIS AOD数据的南京市大气能见度估算

以南京市为研究区,利用MODIS气溶胶产品数据(MOD04L2)获取研究区气溶胶标高数据,结合地面气象站点能见度观测数据,构建研究区不同季节能见度估算模型,估算南京市2013年能见度时空分布。研究结果表明,研究区能见度模型估算值与实测值总体趋势较为一致,分季节模型能见度估算均值相对误差为14.3%;南京市2013年能见度年均值为6.07km,大致呈现出由市区向周边郊区逐渐升高的趋势;研究区不同季节能见度差异明显,夏季能见度显著高于其他3个季节,在该季节全市能见度均值达到9.93km,约为其余3个季节均值的2倍左右,气候状况与经济社会发展布局是影响研究区能见度时空差异的主要因素。     

Perceptions of visibility degradation in Hong Kong

The human dimensions of visibility degradation remain under-researched academically. Based on Zube and Sell's Process Model of the Perception of, and Response to, Environmental Change, a questionnaire survey was conducted in Hong Kong between 5 June 2012 and 26 January 2013 (n = 1,203). The respondents’ perceptions towards visibility degradation were collected. The results show that respondents were moderately knowledgeable to visibility degradation, perceiving the problem as anthropogenic and unfavorable and identifying the fight against the degradation as an important environmental issue. It is further deduced that the respondents’ physical and sociocultural attributes, and the way they gain information about visibility degradation, can affect their perceptions of visibility degradation. The results reveal that improving information channels can positively promote human sensitivity to and understanding of visibility degradation in order to mitigate it. Yet, any attempts to educate the lay public should not assume the existence of a homogenous community of like-minded people.     

珠三角地区利用PM2.5反演气溶胶数浓度谱方法

大气气溶胶数浓度谱分布(PNSD)对于大气辐射和光学计算至关重要,利用目前普遍观测的气溶胶质量浓度(PM_(2.5))来反演计算PNSD,能有效补充PNSD观测的不足,对于需要PNSD信息的研究工作如大气能见度计算等有重要的实用价值.本文利用2014年11月～2015年1月在广州城市站进行同期连续观测的干气溶胶粒子的PM_(2.5)、PNSD数据进行客观分析,建立了一种使用PM_(2.5)反演PNSD的方法,并评估了该方法的适用性.结果表明该反演算法具有较好地适用性和稳定性,对于积聚模态的PNSD反演效果较好,但对于PM_(2.5)高浓度的反演结果差异较大.该反演方法将为珠三角地区的大气能见度计算和应用提供有利的依据和支撑.     

Documenting the sustainability of a mature Click It or Ticket program: the North Carolina experience

North Carolina was the first United States jurisdiction to implement a statewide program (called Click It or Ticket) coupling concentrated enforcement with massive publicity to increase seat belt use. After a successful pilot program in three very different North Carolina communities, the statewide program was launched in October 1993, and has been most active and productive as well as imitated by many other states over the past decade. This paper explores the combination of ingredients that have been employed and sustained over that period of time. These include: (a) a basic coalition of critical public-private agencies (central to the planning, execution, and publicity of the many Click It or Ticket programs); (b) critical top-down commitments (starting with the governor); (c) pervasive and innovative media events/press releases/ PSAs/ web site information; (d) vigorous and well-publicized law enforcement; (e) feedback on results with solid, updated data; (f) related statewide and local programs/activities; and last but not least (g) continuous funding.     

Effect of the air pollution on atmospheric visibility in Beijing-Tianjin area

Simultaneous measurements of air pollutant concentrations and atmospheric visibility were made in Beijing and Tianjin areas in 1983-1985. The relationship between air pollution and visibility was studied. It was found that atmospheric particulates have the most high contribution to visibility decreasing. The percentages of contributions of sulfates and soot are 52-58% and 22-29% respectively. According to the results, we suggest that the emission of SO2 and particulates must be controlled in order to improve the atmospheric visibility.
