Abstract:

This study explores the effects of physical structures of riparian buffers (RBs) on the dispersion of traffic pollutants in north moat of Beijing. The results show that the RBs with different physical structures correspond to different distributions of ground concentrations of traffic pollutants (ρ) and different landing locations with the maximum concentration (xρmax) in different seasons. Specifically, the horizontal distance between RB and line source has the strongest effect on xρmax, and the vertical distance between RB and line source has also effects on both ρ and xρmax.

Key words: ground concentration, landing location with the maximum concentration, vertical distance between riparian buffer and line source, horizontal distance between riparian buffer and line source, riparian width, meteorological parameters
