As a much finer particle, particulate matter less than 1 μm (PM1) plays an important role on the haze formation and human health. However, the capability of mapping PM1concentration is severely impaired by coarse temporal resolution and low estimation accuracy, largely due to the neglect of spatial or temporal autocorrelation of PM1. In order to improve the estimation of high-resolution PM1, here we developed a novel spatiotemporal model named extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost)-geographically and temporally weighted regression (GTWR) using Himawari-8 aerosol optical depth (AOD), meteorological factors, and geographical covariates. The estimation of PM1over Zhejiang province showed that XGBoost-GTWR method was characterized by greater predictive ability (10-fold cross-validation R2= 0.83, root mean squared error (RMSE) = 10.72 μg/m3) compared with other 11 models. Additionally, the extrapolation test was performed to validate the robustness of the hybrid model and the result demonstrated that XGBoost-GTWR can accurately predict the out-of-band PM1concentration (R2= 0.75 (0.60), RMSE = 12.71 (12.58) μg/m3). The PM1concentration displayed pronounced spatial heterogeneity, with the highest value in Quzhou (34.72 ± 1.77 μg/m3) and the lowest in Zhoushan (26.39 ± 1.56 μg/m3), respectively. In terms of the seasonality, the highest PM1concentration was observed in winter (39.06 ± 3.08 μg/m3), followed by those in spring (32.54 ± 3.09 μg/m3) and autumn (30.97 ± 4.50 μg/m3), and the lowest one in summer (25.57 ± 5.22 μg/m3). The high aerosol emission and adverse meteorological conditions (e.g., low boundary layer height and lack of precipitation) were key factors accounting for the peak PM1concentration observed in winter. Also, the PM1concentration exhibited significant diurnal variation, peaking at 1500 local solar time (LST) but reaching the lowest value at 1000 LST. This method enhances our capability of estimating hourly PM1from space, and lays a solid data foundation for improving the assessment of the fine particle-related health effect.
