英文摘要	To better characterize anthropogenic emissionrelevant aerosol species, the Gridpoint Statistical Interpolation (GSI) and Weather Research and Forecasting with Chemistry (WRF/Chem) data assimilation system was updated from the GOCART aerosol scheme to the Model for Simulating Aerosol Interactions and Chemistry (MOSAIC) 4-bin (MOSAIC-4BIN) aerosol scheme. Three years (2015-2017) of wintertime (January) surface PM2:5 (fine particulate matter with an aerodynamic diameter smaller than 2.5 μ m) observations from more than 1600 sites were assimilated hourly using the updated three-dimensional variational (3DVAR) system. In the control experiment (without assimilation) using Multi-resolution Emission Inventory for China 2010 (MEIC-2010) emissions, the modeled January averaged PM2:5 concentrations were severely overestimated in the Sichuan Basin, central China, the Yangtze River Delta and the Pearl River Delta by 98-134, 46-101, 32-59 and 19-60 μg m-3, respectively, indicating that the emissions for 2010 are not appropriate for 2015-2017, as strict emission control strategies were implemented in recent years. Meanwhile, underestimations of 11-12, 53-96 and 22-40 μg m-3 were observed in northeastern China, Xinjiang and the Energy Golden Triangle, respectively. The assimilation experiment significantly reduced both high and low biases to within ±5 μg m-3. The observations and the reanalysis data from the assimilation experiment were used to investigate the year-to-year changes and the driving factors. The role of emissions was obtained by subtracting the meteorological impacts (by control experiments) from the total combined differences (by assimilation experiments). The results show a reduction in PM2:5 of approximately 15 μg m-3 for the month of January from 2015 to 2016 in the North China Plain (NCP), but meteorology played the dominant role (contributing a reduction of approximately 12 μg m-3). The change (for January) from 2016 to 2017 in NCP was different; meteorology caused an increase in PM2:5 of approximately 23 μg m-3, while emission control measures caused a decrease of 8 μg m-3, and the combined effects still showed a PM2:5 increase for that region. The analysis confirmed that emission control strategies were indeed implemented and emissions were reduced in both years. Using a data assimilation approach, this study helps identify the reasons why emission control strategies may or may not have an immediately visible impact. There are still large uncertainties in this approach, especially the inaccurate emission inputs, and neglecting aerosol-meteorology feedbacks in the model can generate large uncertainties in the analysis as well. © 2019 Author(s).
