PM2.5: A complex mixture of extremely small particles and liquid droplets

Fine Particulate Matter (PM2.5) Affects Health and Longevity
WHO: 3.2 million premature DEATHS
per year worldwide
East Asia: 1 million
Lim, et al., The Lancet, 380 (9859) , pp. 2224-2260, 2012

Satellite-Derived PM2.5 in China
Satellite Remote Sensing
Chemical Transport Model
Satellite Remote Sensing Can Fill in These Gaps
Satellite-derived PM2.5: from Satellite Aerosol Optical Depth (AOD) and Modeled PM2.5/AOD
GEOS-ChemChemical Transport Model
GEOS-5 meteorological fields New Multi-resolution Emission
Inventory for China (MEIC) emission in 2010
New sulfate chemical formation mechanism (on aerosol surface at RH>60)
Model version v9-01-03Nested CH @ 0.5x0.666 deg horizontal resolution
(Geostationary Ocean Color Imager) Onboard Korean COMS
(Communication, Ocean, and Meteorological Satellite)
Geostationary observation satellite 6 visible bands + 2 near-IR bands Hourly coverage @ 500 m resolution
Aerosol Retrieval Algorithm Surface reflectance: clear-sky composite
method (30-day 2nd minimum reflectance) Cloud masking: spatial variability test &
threshold test We applied additional textural cloud filters
GOCI
Evaluating GOCI AOD by Comparing with Coincident AERONET Ground
Measurements
Evaluating Modeled PM2.5/AOD by Comparing with Coincident Ground Measurements
Time inconsistency:Model: 2012 May – 2013 AprilGround: 2013 Jan - Dec
Evaluation of GOCI-derived PM2.5
Annual Mean GOCI-derived PM2.5
Compared with Ground Measurements
In Situ PM2.5 is better represented by GOCI-derived PM2.5 (slope = 0.91) than by GEOS-Chem (slope =0.53)
Seasonal and Monthly GOCI-derived PM2.5 Compared with Ground Measurements
Monthly GOCI-derived PM2.5 and Chemical Speciation from GEOS-Chem over Eastern China
Model indicates:Massive OM emission comes from biomass burning and biofuel combustion for heating
Important PM2.5 components:OMSulfateDust (in
spring and fall)
Xing et al., ACP, 2013
Summary
GOCI provides reliable hourly AOD over Northeast Asia
GOCI-derived PM2.5 corrects the bias in the modeled PM2.5
GOCI-derived PM2.5 over Eastern China is in significant
correlation with ground measurements
