Study on the evolution patterns and predictive modeling of ambient air quality in oasis cities of arid regions: a case study of Urumqi by Bian Jing, Ren Xiaofeng

“…Our aim is to elucidate the contributions of atmospheric pollutants to ambient air quality in arid oasis cities.ResultsThe results show that: (1) In 2022, Urumqi’s AQI ranged from 24 to 363, with exceed rates of 2.5% for severely polluted weather, 6.15% for heavily polluted conditions, 5.8% for moderate pollution, and 10% for mild pollution. (2) Dust events elevated inhalable particulate matter (PM) concentrations by 5 μg·m−3, contributing 6.5% to pollution levels, while the ambient air quality composite index reached 4.45. …”
