Air pollution is a serious and growing environmental problem affecting the health and well-being of people and ecosystems all over the world. Air pollution contributes to a range of health problems, including respiratory diseases, heart disease, and stroke, and can also damage crops, forests, and bodies of water.
A recent study has uncovered that China is a major source of nitrate radicals during nighttime hours, which could significantly affect the levels of health-threatening ozone and fine particulates and PM.
The study shows that, if recent increasing ozone pollution trends continue, nighttime oxidation in China will increase further even if NOemissions are reduced. However, based on the trend in Los Angeles since 1980 and global changes since thelockdown, scientists believe that, currently, reducing the emissions of volatile organic compounds would simultaneously reduce daytime ozone and nighttime oxidation in China and similar regions.
