Short summary

A yearlong (2013) air-quality simulation was conducted to provide detailed temporal and spatial information of ozone, PM_2.5 total and chemical components. The paper firstly compared the simulated air pollutants in China with country-wide public available observations for a whole year. It proves the ability of CMAQ in reproducing severe air pollution in China, shows directions that need to be improved, and benefits future source apportionment and human exposure studies.
