Recently, China has faced a large scale air pollution problem not only in urban but also in rural areas. To better understand the occurrence of haze events and properties of particulate matter (PM) in rural area, continuous monitoring of PM and its related characteristics is necessary. Consequently, in this study, a comprehensive observation was performed at a rural site of Zhongmu, Henan Province. The meteorological parameters, physical and chemical properties including number and mass concentration, size resolved and water soluble ions were measured. During the observation period, the highest hourly mass concentration of PM2.5 obtained from Electrical Low Pressure Impactor plus (ELPI+) was 560 μg/m3 on January 5, 2015. The Hybrid Single-Particle Lagrangian Integrated Trajectory model shows that the most polluted day (January 5) was under the influence of static stability meteorological conditions and greatly influenced by the surrounding regional (within 200 km). During new particle formation stage, higher number concentration in nucleation mode (<30 nm) was found. Through the measurement of water-soluble inorganic ions, it was found that Ca2+ was the highest water-soluble inorganic ions in the coarse fraction (PM2.1–10) while SO42−, NO3− and NH4+ were the three major species in the fine fraction (PM2.1). Furthermore, the ratio of [NH4+]/(2[SO42−] + [NO3−]) was higher in fine particulate and [NH4+]/[SO42−] was more than 2 in fine particulate, indicating the presence of both (NH4)2SO4 and NH4NO3 in fine particulate during haze days. The regional transport and to some extent local dust were responsible for haze formation in the observed site.
