摘要
Based on the analysis of air quality data in Yunnan Province from 2015 to 2020, combined with spatial interpolation analysis and geographic detector factor analysis, the spatial-temporal evolution characteristics of air quality in Yunnan Province have been studied, and the main driving factors, the mechanisms, and the impact of regional COVID-19 control measures affecting air quality have been discussed. The results show that the air quality in Yunnan Province was generally good (superior rate > 98%) from 2015 to 2020, that the Air Quality Index (AQI) value is better in the wet season than in the dry season, and that the concentration of major pollutants shows a decreasing trend. AQI values are spatially high in the east and low in the west. The relative humidity, precipitation, population density, building construction area, and civil vehicles have a greater degree of explanation for the spatial differentiation of AQI, whereas the synergistic influence (maximum value 0.92) of socio-economic factors and meteorological factors is significantly greater than that of a single factor (maximum value 0.80) by the geographic detector model. The control measures for COVID-19 in 2020 reduced the concentration of major pollutants in the atmosphere to a certain extent. Controlling regional air pollution in urban agglomerations in low-latitude plateau areas can improve their air quality by reducing human activities. However, the control of O-3 concentration is more complex, and more restrictive factors need to be considered. The results will provide a scientific basis for the prevention and control of air pollution in plateau cities.
