| 2 | Impact of transport of fine and ultrafine particles from open biomass burning on air quality during 2019 Bangkok haze episode显示文摘Transboundary and domestic aerosol transport during 2018–2019 affecting Bangkok air quality has been investigated.Physicochemical characteristics of size-segregated ambient particles down to nano-particles collected during 2017 non-haze and 2018–2019 haze periods were analyzed.The average PM2.5 concentrations at KU and KMUTNB sites in Bangkok,Thailand during the haze periods were about 4 times higher than in non-haze periods.The highest average organic carbon and elemental carbon concentrations were 4.6±2.1μg/m3 and 1.0±0.4μg/m3,respectively,in PM0.5–1.0 range at KU site.The values of OC/EC and charEC/soot-EC ratios in accumulation mode particles suggested the significant influence of biomass burning,while the nuclei and coarse mode particles were from mixed sources.PAH concentrations during 2018–2019 haze period at KU and KMUTNB were 3.4±0.9 ng/m3 and 1.8±0.2 ng/m3,respectively.The PAH diagnostic ratio of PM2.5 also suggested the main contributions were from biomass combustion.This is supported by the 48-hrs backward trajectory simulation.The higher PM2.5 concentrations during 2018–2019 haze period are also associated with the meteorological conditions that induce thermal inversions and weak winds in the morning and evening.Average values of benzo(a)pyrene toxic equivalency quotient during haze period were about 3–6 times higher than during non-haze period.This should raise a concern of potential human health risk in Bangkok and vicinity exposing to fine and ultrafine particulate matters in addition to regular exposure to traffic emission. | Racha Dejchanchaiwong Perapong Tekasakul Surajit Tekasakul Worradorn Phairuang Nobchonnee Nim Chaiyoth Sresawasd Kunchira Thongboon Thunyapat Thongyen Panwadee Suwattiga | 2020 | Journal of Environmental Sciences2020，32，11： | 1 |
