Research Abstract

In Japanese mega-cities, emissions of air pollutants from industrial sector have been largely reduced because of various regulations. However, air pollution due to PM10 and NO_2 is not fully overcome in urban area because of increase in energy consumption from office, household, and transport sectors. On the other hand, in Chinese mega-cities, air pollution is extremely severe because they not only experience rapid increase of pollutants' emissions based on energy consumption in all sectors but also have various natural emissions such as soil dust ("yellow sand") in northern area and biomass burning in southern area of China. For atmospheric environment in Asian mega-cities under these different conditions, it will be valuable to establish a system which can predict future air pollution concentration fields under various air pollution control scenarios, can evaluate health effects by the air pollution fields, and can finally compare the costs between health damages and emission-control … More . measures. In this study, for the final goal described above, the followings were investigated : (1) a global scale aerosol transport model has been developed and applied for one month simulation in March, 2001 to evaluate contribution of natural and anthropogenic emission sources in mega-cities in Eastern Asia, (2) contrast of SPM concentrations in Chinese cities and Japanese cities (Tokyo and Osaka) has been well reproduced with high contribution of soil dust in northern Chinese cities and significant effects of biomass burning in southwestern Chinese cities. (3) in addition, air pollution characteristics in a mega-city in southeastern Asia, Jakarta, has been clarified at the first time, (4) a statistical analysis was made to evaluate effect of PM10 concentration on premature mortality rate in Nagoya, Japan for the use of evaluation connecting air pollution level to health risk, (5) a method for estimation of emission intensity in urban area has been developed and applied to eastern Asia, (6) by using the estimated emissions and transport/chemistry model (NIM5/CMAQ), distributions of NOx and SOx concentrations and depositions have been derived for east Asia., (7) effect of emissions in China and Korea on ozone in Japan has been also estimated Less
