  21. SUMMARY Total emission of PAH16 in China: 116,000 ton in 2003 10% carcinogenic compounds Major sources: indoor biomass burning, small-scale coke ovens Increased over time Global emission of PAH16: 522,000 ton in 2003

  22. 3 • INTRODUCTION • EMISSION INVENTORY • DISPERSION MODELINGIN GUANGDONG

  23. METHODOLOGY Spatial resolved emission Forward trajectories (HYSPLIT) Partitioning, degradation, dry/wet deposition Potential Receptor Influence Function (PRIF) The probability of PAHs arriving at a receptor site, or cell, during a given emission duration and a known period of transport time

  24. China Guangdong EMISSION OF PHE, FLA, PYR, BaP in 2001 210,000 km2, over 80 million population 60 x 60 km2 resolution

  25. ANNUAL MEAN OUTFLOW OF PYRENE 2001 Annual mean PRIF (PYR) from Guangdong based on daily trajectory calculation Total PRIF: 5.37x10-1, 2.56x10-3 and 8.92x10-5

  26. SEASONAL VARIATION IN OUTFLOW Summer vs. winter The East Asian monsoons domination

  27. SPECIAL WEATHER CONDITIONS Stagnation (May 7, 2001), typhoon (July 6, 2001), uplifting (Jan. 23, 2001) One day emission, 5 days transport

  28. INTERANNUAL VARIATION PYRENE 0-5 day transport period, three sites representing source and receptor regions PRIFs peaked in Dec. in southeast Asia (P2) and in July in northern China (P3) Abnormally high (low) PRIF – cold (warm) episodes (Ocean Nino Index)

  29. MODELING FOR CHINA, PRELIMINARY Forward trajectory, PRIF PRIF of PYR and BaP Euler atmospheric transport model coupled with a fugacity multi-media model Resolution: 24 km x 24km x 12 min 1.5, 3.9, 10, 100, 500, 1000, 2000, 3000, 7000 m Annual mean conc. at 1.5 m height, log(pg/m3

  30. SUMMARY 48% remained in Guangdong under 200 m in 5 days PAHs traveled to south and southeast predominantly Strong seasonality Occasionally uplifted and traveled toward the Pacific
