摘要PM2.5 samples were collected in four segregate one-month periods, each representing one season, for analyzing their contents of water soluble inorganic ions (WSIIs) in a small city inside Sichuan Basin. Daily PM2.5 concentrations ranged from 23.2 to 203.1 mu g m(-3) with an annual mean of 66.9 +/- 33.6 mu g m(-3). Annual mean concentrations of WSIIs was 28.8 +/- 20.3 mu g m(-3), accounting for 43.1% of PM2.5. Seasonal mean concentrations of WSIIs ranged from 17.5 +/- 9.3 mu g m(-3) in summer to 46.5 +/- 27.6 mu g m(-3) in winter. Annual mean mass ratio of NO3-/SO42- was 0.49, demonstrating predominant stationary sources for secondary inorganic aerosols (SNA, including SO42-, NH4+ and NO3-); whereas annual mean molar ratio of [NH4+]/[NO3-] was 3.5, suggesting dominant agriculture emissions contributing to the total nitrogen. During a severe and long-lasting (13 days) winter pollution period when mean PM2.5 concentration reached to 132.5 mu g m(-3), PM2.5 concentration was enhanced by a factor of 2.6 while that of SNA by a factor of 2.9 compared to those before the pollution event, and the fraction of SNA in PM2.5 only increased slightly (from 46.7% to 50.6%). Thus, local accumulation of pollutants under poor diffusion conditions played a major role causing the extremely high PM2.5 concentration, besides the contributions from the enhanced SNA formation under specific weather conditions.
