New particle formation in Beijing, China: Statistical analysis of a 1‐year data set
Abstract
Particle number size distributions between 3 nm and 10 μ m were measured in Beijing, China. New particle formation events were observed on around 40% of the measurement days from March 2004 to February 2005 and were generally observed under low relative humidity and sunny conditions. Though occurring during all seasons, new particle formation events had highest frequency in spring and lowest frequency in summer. Events were classified as “clean” or “polluted” groups mainly according to the condensational sink and the local wind. The formation rate range was from 3.3 to 81.4 cm−3 s−1. The growth rate varied from 0.1 to 11.2 nm h−1. The seasonal variation of condensable vapor concentration showed the highest values during summer months due to enhanced photochemical and biological activities as well as stagnant air masses preventing exchange with cleaner air.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
