Abstract

pollution in the world. In the previous study of air pollution in Chengdu, it was only for a short period of pollution. It is impossible to fully understand the spatio-temporal trajectory and cause of air pollution. Chengdu is surrounded by mountains, and the meteorological conditions have been stagnant for a long time. The research on the spatio-temporal evolution of the main air pollution trajectories in each pollution period in Chengdu is particularly important. Quantifying the pollution trajectory and air pollution concentration is helpful to fully understand the air quality in Chengdu. The comprehensive analysis of multi-source data such as air pollution and meteorology has focused on strengthening the in-depth research on the transmission law of air pollution, the spatio-temporal change trend of air pollution, the sources of air pollution and the causes of air pollution, so as to help people fully understand the sources and causes of pollution in Chengdu. Aiming at the trajectory law, causes and occurrence time of air pollution, it is conducive for the government to formulate corresponding policies, carry out regional emission reduction and joint prevention and control, improve air quality and minimize the harm of air pollution to the public.
