インドでは気候変動による熱波と大気汚染が複合し、PM2.5と高温の同時極端現象が増加。2020年以降、前モンスーン期にこの複合現象が再活性化し、2022年4月には地域平均17.5日を記録。GEOS-Chemモデルにより、気象条件の変化が主因で、北インドの高気圧循環強化が熱波と汚染物質輸送を促進し、二次有機エアロゾル生成が約2.3倍増加することが示された。
English
India faces a dangerous convergence of climate change and air pollution, with compound heat–PM2.5 extremes increasing. After 2020, pre-monsoon co-extremes revived, peaking at 17.5 regional days in April 2022. GEOS-Chem modeling reveals that strengthened anticyclonic circulation over northern India drives extreme heat and pollutant transport, boosting secondary organic aerosol formation by ~2.3 times, dominating these co-extremes.

📄 Abstract（原文）
The dual crises of climate change and air pollution are creating a dangerous convergence. Climate change is already fueling more frequent, intense, and longer-lasting heat waves worldwide. When these extreme heat events combine with polluted air, they produce a synergistic effect, posing health threats far greater than either would alone. India has emerged as a critical hotspot for these compound risks, with Delhi alone experiencing 388 heat–PM 2.5 co-extreme [PM 2.5 > 75 µg m −3 and daily maximum 2-m air temperature ( T max ) > 35°C] days during 2017–24. However, such co-extremes have received limited attention. By integrating surface and satellite observations with GEOS-Chem modeling, we find a marked revival of pre-monsoon heat–PM 2.5 co-extremes over India after 2020. The regional mean reaches 17.5 days in April 2022, accounting for over 70% of recent PM 2.5 extremes. Satellite observations reveal substantial increases in major PM 2.5 precursors during this time, and GEOS-Chem sensitivity experiments show that changing meteorological conditions act as primary amplifiers. The meteorological shift features a strengthened anticyclonic circulation over northern India, inducing extreme heat and southeasterly anomalies that facilitate greater pollutant transport. As a result, secondary organic aerosol formation increases markedly and organic carbon yields rise by ∼2.3 times, thus dominating these co-extremes. These insights provide an important early warning about how circulation shifts could drive future increases in co-extremes in India.
