近二十年来，中国经济发展迅速。经济发展通常与能源消耗和消费排放的增加有关，这反过来又导致空气质量恶化。由于采取了各种控制措施，中国一些大城市的环境空气质量实际上有所改善。近10年来，我国环境空气中TSP和SO2浓度呈下降趋势。然而，由于机动车数量的增加，环境空气中的NO2水平一直在增加。煤炭过去是，现在仍然是中国的主要能源。大城市环境空气污染已由传统的燃煤型向燃煤/机动车混合排放型转变。在中国进行了一系列关于空气污染和健康影响的流行病学研究，从死亡率、发病率到功能变化。结果表明，环境空气污染对死亡率、发病率、住院率、临床症状、肺功能变化等均有急性和慢性效应，并建立了空气污染物与每日死亡率、发病率、住院率和肺功能之间的因果关系。(C)2004爱思唯尔爱尔兰有限公司保留所有权利。
China's economy has developed rapidly in the recent two decades. Economic development is usually linked with increase in energy consumption and consumption emissions, which in turn leads to worsening of air quality. Due to the adoption of various control measures, the ambient air quality in a number of large cities in China has actually improved. The ambient air TSP and SO2 levels in China have been decreasing in the last decade. However, ambient air NO2 level has been increasing due to the increased number of motor vehicles. Coal has been and is still the major source of energy in China. Ambient air pollution in large cities has changed from the conventional coal combustion type to the mixed coal combustion/motor vehicle emission type. A series of epidemiological studies on air pollution and health effects ranging from mortality, morbidity to functional changes have been conducted in China. The results showed that ambient air pollution had acute and chronic effects on mortality, morbidity, hospital admissions, clinical symptoms, lung function changes, etc. The exposure-response relationship between air pollutants and daily mortality, morbidity, hospital admissions, and lung function has been established accordingly.
