多源卫星遥感的华北平原大气NO2浓度时空变化

为探讨1996年以来华北平原对流层NO_2柱浓度变化的空间特征,基于GOME、SCIAMACHY和OMI卫星传感器的监测数据,以SCIAMACHY的NO_2柱浓度为基准,根据建立的GOME和SCIAMACHY,SCIAMACHY和OMI之间的相关关系,校正GOME和OMI监测的NO_2数据;利用线性正弦曲线模型拟合方法研究1996年—2016年长时间序列华北平原对流层NO_2变化的空间分布特征。结果显示,华北平原对流层NO_2浓度自1996年开始持续上升,到2011年达到最高值,然后呈现下降趋势。该变化趋势主要受经济发展和环保政策的双重影响。1996年—2011年,NO_2柱浓度高值区分布在北京市、天津市、河北唐山市和保定市、山东德州市和济南市、安徽滁州市以及江苏南京市、常州市和无锡市,并且具有较高增长率;2012年—2016年NO_2柱浓度平均值远高于1996年—2011年NO_2柱浓度平均值,高值地区范围扩大,分布在河北南部、河南北部和山东西部,但华北平原地区NO_2柱浓度均呈现负增长,表明"十二五"规划提出的大气环保政策取得了显著成效。同时,对流层NO_2柱浓度可以反映典型环保事件如北京奥运会、国庆阅兵和南京青奥会时期大气环保政策的实施效果。

Spatial variations in NO2 trend in North China Plain based on multi-source satellite remote sensing

A trend analysis based on observations from GOME, SCIAMACHY, and OMI of the tropospheric NO₂ column from 1996 to 2016 in North China Plain is presented. The columnar NO₂ showed a rapid increase from 1996 to 2011, especially in Beijing, Tianjin, and Hebei. On the contrary, a significant decrease in tropospheric NO₂ column was observed in North China Plain from 2012 to 2016 because of the effective control strategies from the twelfth Five-Year Plan.This study aims to investigate the spatial variations in tropospheric NO₂ trend from 1996 to 2016 in North China Plain, from which the driving factors of economic development and polices were derived. First, the liner regression analysis method was used among tropospheric NO₂ columns from GOME, SCIAMCHY, and OMI. Second, the spatial variations in NO₂ trend in North China Plain were investigated using multivariate linear regression.Results showed that NO₂ columns in North China Plain increased by 10.3% per year from 1996 to 2011, and then decreased by 8.77% per year from 2012 to 2016 because of the rapid economic development, environmental protection policy, and rainfall. From 1996 to 2011, high NO₂ columns were mainly concentrated in Beijing, Tianjin, Tangshan, Baoding, Dezhou, Jinan, Nanjing, Changzhou, and Wuxi, with the value of NO₂ columns being larger than 600×10¹³ molec·/cm². Low NO₂ columns were mainly concentrated in northern Hebei and southwestern Henan provinces, with the value of NO₂ columns being less than 200×10¹³ molec·/cm². The trend of NO₂ columns had an acceptable agreement (0.54) with NO₂ concentration in the space, indicating that the increase was mostly distributed in the region with high value. From 2012 to 2016, the high value of NO₂ columns spread to southern Hebei, northern Henan, and western Shandong. Generally, the average NO₂ column from 2012 to 2016 was considerably higher than that from 1996 to 2011. The trend of NO₂ column decreased from 2012 to 2016 over North China Plain probably because of the effective control strategies implemented during the twelfth Five-Year Plan. In addition, tropospheric NO₂ column showed a significant reduction during typical events in North China Plain, such as, Beijing Olympics, military parade, and Nanjing Youth Olympic Games.The tropospheric NO₂ columns measured by GOME, SCIAMACHY, and OMI could be used to indicate the variations of NO_x emissions. Results showed that the increase and decrease trends may be affected by rapid economic development, environmental protection policies, and rainfall.
