Abstract:Atmospheric fine particulate matter is one of the major pollutants that threatens human health seriously. Taking Hubei Province as an example, in this paper LUR (land use regression) model is applied in spatializing the PM2.5 concentration data of each monitoring station, and the spatial variation of population exposure intensity is investigated on top of that, so as to provide reference for the prevention and control of pollution regionally. The results show as follows. 1) The concentration of 60 monitoring sites differ a lot and the average PM2.5 concentration of sites exceeds the second level of the national ambient air quality standard. The concentration is significantly affected by four factors, namely temperature, wind velocity, altitude and area of green space in buffer with 3 km radius. The rise of temperature will be contributed to increase the value of PM2.5, while other factors are opposite. 2) The spatial distribution simulation of PM2.5 based on LUR shows obvious gradient differences of PM2.5 concentration, which are high in the middle region, low in the east, and the lowest in the west on a provincial scale. Generally, the pollution in Wuhan Metropolitan, Jianghan Plain and part of Xiangyang are more severe than the western parts relatively. 3) Taking population density into consideration, the study of PM2.5 exposure intensity index built exhibits a high spatial correlation between the exposure intensity and population density. The majority of population and land in the province is in low exposure intensity. The highly exposed areas are comparatively dispersed, mainly distributed in the middle and east of Hubei centered in Wuhan metropolitan.
