摘要：To evaluate the effectiveness of control strategies during the G20 Summit (August 24–September 6, 2016), five sites were selected for investigating the variation in air pollution in the city of Hangzhou and its surrounding areas. The results showed that the air quality in Hangzhou greatly improved after the implementation of strict emission controls. Compared to the same dates from the five preceding years, the G20 period exhibited low relative humidity during the early stage (August 27–31) and no significant differences in other meteorological conditions. The SO2, NO2, PM10, and PM2.5 concentrations averaged across the five sites in Hangzhou decreased by 42.6%, 57.1%, 36%, and 38.5%, respectively, although the average O3 concentration increased by 19%. These changes indicate that the emission reduction measures decreased the concentrations of several pollutants. Compared to the same dates from the previous year (August 24–September 6, 2015), the G20 period exhibited significantly decreased concentrations for most of the chemical components of PM2.5, particularly SO42–, NO3–, and NH4+. Additionally, the aerosol optical depth (AOD) and the NO2 column densities were found to exhibit similar trends with that of the pollutants in this city.
