Soil nitrogen dioxide (NOX= NO2+ NO) emissions have been measured and estimated to be the second most significant contributor to the NOXburden following the fossil fuel combustion source globally. NOXemissions from croplands are subject to being underestimated or overlooked in air pollution simulations of regional atmospheric chemistry models. With constraints of ground and space observations of NO2, the WRF-Chem model is used to investigate the cropland NOXemission and its contribution to the near-surface ozone (O3) pollution in North China Plain (NCP) during a growing season as a case study. Model simulations have revealed that the cropland NOXemissions are underestimated by around 80% without constraints of satellite measured NO2column densities. The biogenic NOXsource is estimated to account for half of the anthropogenic NOXemissions in the NCP during the growing season. Additionally, the cropland NOXsource contributes around 5.0% of the maximum daily average 8h O3concentration and 27.7% of NO2concentration in the NCP. Our results suggest the agriculture NOXemission exerts non-negligible impacts on the summertime air quality and needs to be considered when designing emission abatement strategies.
