Double Compressions of Atmospheric Depth by Geopotential Tendency, Vorticity, and Atmospheric Boundary Layer Affected Abrupt High Particulate Matter Concentrations at a Coastal City for a Yellow Dust Period in October

Figure 5

As shown in Figure 3, except for (a) 09:00 LST (00:00 UTC), (b) 15:00 LST (06:00 UTC), (c) 21:00 LST (12:00 UTC), October 27, 2003, and (d) 03:00 LST (18:00 UTC), October 28. Dust particles originated from Gobi Desert move toward eastern Nei-Mongo, Manchuria, and northern Korea with their flowing southwestward in the left of cold front and northeastward in the right of the front, as the front moves toward the Korean peninsula, sequentially with time.
