Abstract

Nitrous pentoxide (N2O5) and nitryl chloride (ClNO2) are recognized as crucial reactive nitrogen species in the polluted troposphere. ClNO2 serves as a precursor to highly reactive chlorine radicals, influencing atmospheric oxidation processes. This study conducted long-term field observations of N2O5 and ClNO2, coupled with the CAMx three-dimensional numerical model, to examine ClNO2 concentration variations during the snow cover period in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei and Northeast regions. Research findings indicated that the BT09 scheme outperformed the YU20 scheme in simulating ClNO2 concentrations. This discrepancy might be attributed to the formation of ice films on aerosol surfaces during snow cover, altering aerosol water content and consequently affecting γN2O5 and φClNO2. Annual emissions of HCl, PCl, and Cl2, primary anthropogenic chlorine species emitted during coal combustion, were substantial, totaling 180.53 Gg, 20.51 Gg and 7.29 Gg, respectively. Under snow cover conditions, the increase in temperature in coastal urban areas led to an increase in liquid water on the surface of snow particles, enhancing N2O5 hydrolysis. Incorporating anthropogenic chlorine emissions from coal combustion alongside heterogeneous N2O5 chemical processes on surfaces markedly improved ClNO2 simulation accuracy, emphasizing the decisive influence of anthropogenic chlorine emissions on regional ClNO2 concentrations. This study provides essential scientific foundations for a comprehensive understanding of atmospheric oxidation and the development of control strategies.
