Comprehensive Dataset on China's PM2.5 Emissions and Air Quality 2013-2020

This dataset provides a detailed account of China's PM2.5 emissions and air quality from 2013 to 2020, developed to assess the impact of national clean air policies. It includes emission inventories across six sectors for key pollutants, simulated PM2.5 concentrations using the WRF/CMAQ model, and quantified emission reductions from specific control measures. Additionally, it offers health impact assessments of PM2.5 reductions, such as avoided premature deaths. The dataset supports research in environmental science, public health, and policy analysis, enabling studies on air pollution dynamics, health outcomes, and policy effectiveness. The data is publicly accessible through the MEIC model portal and Figshare repository, providing a valuable resource for understanding and addressing air pollution challenges in China.
