Top-Down Emissions Analyses, Oral Session 2
Background information of Nanjing Location: western Yangtze River Delta region in eastern China Intensive population and heavy industry (power, refinery, and steel) Large fossil fuel use (35 million metric tons coal in 2012) Serious air pollution (annual PM10 in 2013 over 130 ug/m3)
Strong motivation to develop and improve city-scale EI
Development and evaluation of EI in Nanjing
Lots of efforts. But do those efforts REALLY improve the quality of bottom-up city-scale EI ?
Emissions for typical sources/pollutants MEIC This work
Power SO2
Industrial PM2.5
Spatial distribution of NOX emissions and NO2 VCDs
Agrees better with OMI observation compared to downscaled national
EI Still missed source along the Yangtze River (ships and factories)
Is the spatial distribution better captured ? Probably
Correlation between emissions and VCDs
Particularly, emissions of medium/small sources are better detected.
Correlation between species: emissions vs observation
BC/CO CO2/CO
Top-down constraint: 0.0084Bottom-up emissions:0.0097 (this work)/0.0095 (MEIC)
Top-down constraint: 86.9Bottom-up emissions:76.1 (this work)/52.8 (MEIC)
Can the correlations be tested by observation? Probably

Large point sources and super emitters play a key role on the level and spatial distribution of Nanjing emissions.
The improved spatial distribution of NOX emissions at city level
can be tested by satellite observation.
Correlations between certain species in emissions can be tested through top-down constraints from ground observation.
