Effect of Pollution Level on Size Distributions and Mixing State of Ambient Black Carbon Particles in an Urban Area during Wintertime by Kangning Li, XiaoFei Wang, Xiaohui Lu, Hong Chen, Xin Yang

“…Trajectory analyses of the air masses showed that they usually originated in local areas or on the North China Plain during haze episodes but mostly migrated from the East China Sea during clean episodes. Interestingly, the BC particles in the clean air masses contained V more frequently and generated intense mass spectrum signals for Ca+, suggesting that these particles probably arose from heavy machinery emissions near ports. …”

Characteristics of Cenozoic volcanic edifices in the Pingnan area, Xihu Sag by Naiquan SUN, Donghui JIANG, Jie PAN, Yang GAO, Renhai PU, Xinxu DONG

“…Significance Igneous rocks are well-developed in the southern Pinghu slope zone, Xihu Sag, East China Sea Shelf Basin. In this zone, the increased local geotemperature caused by magmatic activity produced significant impacts on the thermal evolution of source rocks and the formation of secondary pores in sandstone reservoirs and also serves as a significant indicator of regional tectonic movements, thus holding great significance for understanding the regional geological history. …”
