【环球时报特约记者 李佳寅】"'有毒'空气正在威胁印度的2036年申奥愿景。"《今日印度》近日在专题节目中抛出话题，强调"空气问题如今已不仅是印度 人民的健康隐患，更是国家的负担"。报道举例说，包括羽毛球名将安赛龙、安东森在内的多名国际运动员，曾因对印度的空气质量表示担心而选择弃赛。 不仅是国外选手担忧前往印度参赛的健康问题，空气污染也严重影响到本国选手的训练质量和身体健康。普丽蒂·潘查尔曾担任2023年曲棍球世青赛印度队 队长，她讲述了日益严重的污染如何让自己饱受健康困扰。潘查尔坦言："空气污染直接影响了队员们的训练——跑步变得吃力，呼吸变得困难，不少曲棍 球队员都出现了过敏症状。训练馆附近还有一家大米加工厂，厂区产生的粉尘常年漂浮在空气中。受粉尘影响，训练场地草坪老化速度很快，还会变得湿 滑，导致队员们频繁受伤。我相信运动员总能学会适应和应对各种状况，但如果能有更好的训练环境，我们的竞技水平无疑能再上一个台阶。" 潘查尔和队友的遭遇不是个例。《印度快报》的一项调查显示，冬季重度空气污染叠加夏季逼近50摄氏度的酷热，正让印度顶尖运动员的训练周期遭遇"缓 慢且持续的侵蚀"。对于印度的顶尖运动员而言，训练已从对 ...

Core Viewpoint - Beijing is currently experiencing air pollution, but conditions are expected to improve, leading to a return to good air quality levels by Saturday [1][2] Group 1: Air Quality Status - As of today, Beijing's air quality is at a light pollution level, with PM2.5 concentrations reaching 79 micrograms per cubic meter at 16:00 on the 17th, indicating light pollution [1] - On the 18th at 08:00, PM2.5 concentrations rose to 116 micrograms per cubic meter, entering moderate pollution levels, and further increased to 148 micrograms per cubic meter by 16:00 [1] Group 2: Contributing Factors - The increase in PM2.5 levels is attributed to regional transmission, with 70% of the pollution being influenced by external sources, particularly from coal burning [1] - During the pollution event, coal source tracers in PM2.5 components increased by 6.6 times, indicating significant contributions from regional coal sources [1] - Local pollution accounted for 28% of PM2.5 levels, while regional transmission pollution made up 72%, highlighting the combined impact of local generation and regional transport [1]

Core Viewpoint - The air pollution process in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region began on December 15, with PM2.5 concentrations reaching significant levels, indicating a deterioration in air quality due to unfavorable diffusion conditions and regional transmission of pollutants [1][2]. Overall Situation - On December 15, PM2.5 concentrations in cities near the Taihang and Yanshan mountains rose to light pollution levels, with Langfang experiencing moderate pollution. On December 16, under the influence of northern winds, pollutant concentrations decreased in the northern region while accumulating in the south, leading to widespread light pollution and moderate pollution at the Hebei-Shandong-Henan border. By December 17, pollution spread to the Yangtze River basin, reaching moderate to heavy pollution levels, and by December 18, severe pollution was reported in most of Henan and southern Hebei [1]. Pollution Cause Analysis - The pollution process was primarily driven by unfavorable diffusion conditions and local accumulation, compounded by regional transmission, which collectively raised PM2.5 concentrations in Beijing. Recent weak surface pressure systems and persistent warming in the middle atmosphere contributed to the formation of regional pollution [2]. Regional Transmission Impact - During the pollution event, regional transmission accounted for 72% of the PM2.5 concentration increase in Beijing, with coal combustion sources contributing significantly, as evidenced by a 6.6-fold increase in coal source tracers. The local contribution was only 28%, indicating that the majority of pollution was transported from surrounding areas, particularly from Hebei province [3]. PM2.5 Composition - The composition of PM2.5 during the pollution event showed a significant presence of nitrates, with nitrate, ammonium, and sulfate accounting for 39%, 16%, and 11% of the total PM2.5, respectively. Secondary components made up over 60% of the total, highlighting the need for enhanced control of emissions from mobile sources in Beijing [3]. Protective Recommendations - Forecast models indicate that the pollution process will only be alleviated after the arrival of cold air on the afternoon of December 19, improving diffusion conditions. Citizens are advised to minimize unnecessary travel and wear masks for protection until conditions improve [3].

Group 1 - The air quality in Beijing is currently at a moderate pollution level, primarily due to PM2.5, with similar pollution observed in eastern China [1] - Since December 14, air quality has deteriorated in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region and surrounding areas due to reduced wind, increased humidity, and temperature inversions [1][2] - The current pollution process is attributed to unfavorable meteorological conditions combined with high emissions from various industries, leading to the accumulation and transformation of pollutants [2] Group 2 - In the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region, the activity level in the thermal power and heating sector has increased by approximately 20 percentage points compared to pre-heating season levels [2] - Key industries such as steel, petrochemicals, and construction are maintaining high operational levels, contributing to persistent PM2.5 pollution [2] - The proportion of nitrates in PM2.5 has exceeded 30%, indicating that emissions from key industries and diesel vehicles are significant contributors to pollution [2] Group 3 - In response to the pollution, 86 cities in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, Yangtze River Delta, and central Yangtze River regions have activated early warning responses [2] - Specific measures include differentiated control strategies for industrial enterprises based on environmental performance, such as production halts and emission limits [2] - In Hubei province, nitrogen oxide emissions from industrial sources decreased by 10.1% as part of the coordinated response to pollution [3] Group 4 - Air quality in cities like Ezhou, Xiangyang, and Suizhou improved from heavy to moderate pollution levels by December 18 [3] - Public health recommendations include minimizing outdoor activities and using public transportation to reduce traffic emissions during poor air quality [3] - Air quality is expected to gradually improve in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region starting December 20, with further improvements in the Yangtze River Delta and central Yangtze River regions on December 21 [3]
