摘要

To study the pollution features and underlying mechanism of PM2.5 in Luoyang,a typical developing urban site in the central plain of China,303 PM2.5 samples were collected from April 16 to December 29,2015 to analyze the elements,water soluble inorganic ions,organic carbon and elemental carbon.The annual mean concentration of PM2.5 was 142.3 μg/m3,and 75％ of the daily PM2.5 concentrations exceeded the 75μg/m3.The secondary inorganic ions,organic matter and mineral dust were the most abundant species,accounting for 39.6％,19.2％ and 9.3％ of the total mass concentration,respectively.But the major chemical components showed clear seasonal dependence.SO42-was most abundant specie in spring and summer,which related to intensive photochemical reaction under high O3 concentration.In contrast,the secondary organic carbon and ammonium while primary organic carbon and ammonium significantly contributed to haze formation in autumn and winter,respectively.This indicated that the collaboration effect of secondary inorganic aerosols and carbonaceous matters result in heavy haze in autumn and winter.Six main sources were identified by positive matrix factorization model: industrial emission,combustion sources,traffic emission,mineral dust,oil combustion and secondary sulfate,with the annual contribution of 24％,20％,24％,4％,5％ and 23％,respectively.The potential source contribution function analysis pointed that the contribution of the local and short-range regional transportation had significant impact.This result highlighted that local primary carbonaceous and precursor of secondary carbonaceous mitigation would be key to reduce PM2.5 and O3 during heavy haze episodes in winter and autumn.
