In this study, we found that a cold front can transport air pollutants from the polluted North China Plain to the Yangtze River Delta (YRD), thereby deteriorating air quality over the YRD. Before the cold frontal passage, a warm and polluted air mass over YRD climbed to the free troposphere (1.0–2.0 km) along the frontal surface. After the cold frontal passage, high pressure behind the frontal zone resulted in a synoptic subsidence that trapped PM2.5 in the surface.
In this study, we found that a cold front can transport air pollutants from the polluted North...
