Influence of Regional Pollution Outflow on Particle Number Concentration and Particle Size in Airshed of Guangzhou, South China by Hing Cho Cheung, Chengyu Nie, Mintao Huang, Tingting Yang, Hao Wang, Celine Siu Lan Lee, Chenglei Pei, Jun Zhao, Baoling Liang

“…The PNC in the region was influenced by monsoon and the land–sea breeze systems. During monsoon seasons, PM pollution occurred at a regional scale affecting the urban and suburban areas as indicated by the high PNC correlation (r value = 0.70), but the PNCs were lower than that during land-sea breeze period (with lower PNCM1/PNCLSB1 and PNCM2/PNCLSB2 ratios) due to the higher atmospheric dispersion. …”
