英文摘要 | The evolution and the impacts of meteorological conditions on brown carbon (BrC) absorption are not understood, which hinders the assessment of BrC radiative forcing. To address this issue, 1-hr time-resolved PM2.5 samples collected during three haze events in the North China Plain prior to the COVID-19 pandemic were used to measure the optical properties of BrC. By coupling excitation-emission matrix spectroscopy, chemical tracer analysis with multiple model analysis including positive matrix factorization (PMF) and a deweather-random forest model, we found that a higher proportion of highly oxidized chromophoric components was present in water-soluble BrC than in methanol-soluble BrC, indicating the conversion of low-oxidized water-insoluble BrC into highly oxidized water-soluble BrC during the day. The results of the PMF and the deweather-random forest model showed that aqueous secondary processes were the major contributor to the BrC absorption (68% +/- 38%), and the changes in meteorological conditions such as relative humidity (RH) could significantly lead to the changes in the light-absorbing capacity of BrC, especially the enhancement for water-soluble BrC and bleaching for methanol-soluble BrC during the noon and afternoon. We further found that the BrC absorption capacity increased as RH increases to a maximum of similar to 65%, and then decreased when RH >65%, highlighting the important role of RH in the generation of water-soluble BrC. Plain Language Summary Severe haze events are still common in winter in northern China due to high anthropogenic emissions and adverse meteorological conditions. Atmospheric brown carbon (BrC) is one of the major components influencing the optical properties of aerosols and is closely related to the development of haze. Investigating the source and evolution of BrC, as well as the influence of meteorological factors on BrC absorption, is helpful in understanding the formation mechanism and evolution of haze. Here, we reveal the source, evolution and meteorological influencing factors of soluble BrC in three haze events using multiple model analyses including PMF and random forest. Our results emphasized the substantial impacts of aqueous-phase reactions of anthropogenic-related secondary organic aerosols on particle pollution, and meteorological factors are one of the main drivers leading to the increase in BrC absorption during haze periods. |
