Variation Characteristics of Aerosol Optical Depth in Northeast China from 2003 to 2022
Based on the MODIS(moderate-resolution imaging spectroradiometer)AOD(aerosol optical depth)and MEIC(multi-resolution emission inventory for China)in Northeast China from 2003 to 2022,the spa-tial distribution and interannual trend of AOD in Northeast China are analyzed.Effects of meteorological factors and anthropogenic emissions on AOD changes in Northeast China are discussed.Results show that the AOD maximum in central Liaoning is 0.6,followed by an average AOD of 0.4 in western Jilin and 0.3 in Heilongjiang.The average AOD in Northeast China is lower than that in north China,Yangtze Riv-er Delta and other frequent pollution areas.High AOD occurs in spring and summer in Northeast China,and it decreases spatially in autumn while increases in winter.The summer AOD in Liaoning is significant-ly higher than that in other regions,when the average value in central Liaoning and the Bohai Rim increa-ses to 0.6.The highest values of AOD in different seasons occur in Liaoning,followed by Jilin and Hei-longjiang.The increase of AOD in summer is mainly related to environmental humidity,and adverse me-teorological conditions and local emissions have certain effects on near-surface atmospheric extinction in winter.The annual occurrence frequency of AOD in the range of[0.1,0.2)and[0.2,0.3)in Liaoning is up to 50％,the annual occurrence frequency of AOD in the range of[0.1,0.2)in Jilin and Heilongjiang is up to 25％-30％,and the annual occurrence frequency of extreme clean condition in Heilongjiang is up to 15％.Affected by dust events in spring,the occurrence frequency of AOD[0.2,0.3)and AOD[0.3,0.4)in Northeast China is 25％.The regional average value of AOD in Northeast China is higher in 2003 and 2014,which is mainly influenced by boundary layer meteorological elements and anthropogenic emis-sion of SO2,PM2.5,organic carbon(OC)and NO2.In Northeast China,AOD is negatively correlated with boundary layer height and average wind speed,and positively correlated with anthropogenic emis-sions.The correlation coefficient between AOD and anthropogenic emissions of SO2,PM2.5 and OC is the highest in Liaoning.From 2003 to 2022,AOD in Liaoning shows a weak negative growth trend(about-0.1 per decade),while the AOD in Jilin and Heilongjiang shows little change trend.From the perspec-tive of seasonal interannual trend,there is a transition from a negative increasing trend in spring to a posi-tive increasing trend in summer before 2012.After 2013,the summer AOD in Northeast China shows a negative growth trend(-0.3 per decade),which confirms that the contribution of summer aerosol to at-mospheric extinction in Northeast China is decreasing in the past 10 years.
