Local air pollution is strongly affected by synoptic weather systems,such as fronts,troughs,low-altitude vortices,or high-altitude ridges.Nevertheless,few studies have analyzed the meteorological properties of cold or warm air masses associated to these systems and their impact on local air quality.In this study,hourly observations of fine par-ticulate matter(diameter of up to 2.5 pm,i.e.,PM2.5),wind(V),temperature(T),pressure(P),and precipitation(R),acquired in Hangzhou in 2014-2020,were analyzed.From this analysis,weather patterns were categorized into 27 types;89 and 94 cases illustrating the passage of warm and cold air masses over Hangzhou were identified,respect-ively;the influence of air mass temperature,wind speed,and wind direction on PM2.5 concentrations and local accu-mulation or removal was quantified.The main results are as follows.(1)Pollution events occurred more frequently for cold than for warm air masses,but average pollutant concentration was lower for cold air masses;(2)48％of the cold air mass cases corresponded to PM2.5 decreases and 52％to PM2.5 increases,with strong cold air masses(ΔT24h＞4℃;|V|average＞4 m s-1)markedly reducing local pollution,but weak cold air masses(ΔT24h＜2℃;|V|average＜2 m s-1)primarily inducing pollutant transport and accumulation;(3)for warm air masses,PM2.5 accumu-lation or removal occurred in 60％and 40％of the cases,respectively:warm air masses(ΔT24h＞4℃)reduced the PM2.5 concentration whereas weaker winds(|V|average＜2 m s-1)increased it;and(4)PM2.5 concentration decreased sharply within 4 h after the passage of strong cold air masses,but more gradually within 14 h after the passage of strong warm air masses.These results considerably improve the current understanding of the influence of cold and warm air masses on local pollution patterns.
