aerosols with different vertical distribution and various optical properties induce diverse heating rates and thereby affecting convective boundary layer (CBL) development. Our results showed consistent CBL-suppression of aerosols during daytime with numerical experiments, in which aerosols were specified at different heights with synthesized single scattering albedo from 64 studies and asymmetry factor from 20 studies globally. Absorbing aerosols concentrated below but close to the CBL top had the strongest suppression effect on CBL development relative to that concentrated near surface or above CBL. Aerosol cooling effect by attenuating incident solar radiation and surface heat flux exceeded its warming effect by reheating the atmosphere layer with absorbed shortwave radiation, and eventually declined net heating rate, which inhibited CBL development, lowered mixed-layer potential temperature and stabilized atmospheric stratification. Stove effect of absorbing aerosols (CBL enhancement) under a zero background aerosol extinction coefficient is negligible for dominant dome effect (CBL suppression) which consistently suppresses CBL development regardless of aerosol vertical height and background aerosol extinction coefficient. Our study also highlighted the importance of specifying background aerosol extinction coefficient in numerical experiments for accurate assessment of aerosol radiative forcing and CBL-aerosol interactions.

Air pollution represents a complex phenomenon defined by the presence of various gases and particulate matter, leading to intricate spatio-temporal fluctuations. This study aims to enhance our understanding of how meteorological factors influence trace gases and aerosols, exacerbating air pollution in various geographical locations, specifically in Beijing's Fengtai (BJFT), Taiyuan City (SXTY), and Hefei's Science Island (HFDP). The study employs 2D-MAX-DOAS observations and utilizes the Random Forest (RF) model to decouple the influence of meteorological conditions from pollutant data. The vertical profile of nitrogen dioxide (NO2), sulfur dioxide (SO2), formaldehyde (HCHO), and aerosols at each study site was classified into four distinct layers, followed by conducting a meteorological decoupling analysis on each layer. This decoupling analysis demonstrates that meteorology significantly influences aerosols across all sites, with reductions ranging from 75% to 95% after de-weathering. SO2 shows minimal susceptibility, with the changes ranging from ±20% to ±60% after de-weathering. Among all sites, BJFT's pollutants exhibit less susceptibility overall, while pollutants at HFDP are more susceptible. The findings further reveal significant meteorological interventions in pollutants in surface layers (0.05 km and 0.2 – 0.4 km) at BJFT, with some exceptions at SXTY. However, pollutants, particularly NO2 and aerosols in higher layers (0.6 – 0.8 km and 1.0 – 1.2 km) at HFDP, also experience significant meteorological interferences. The findings at HFDP and SXTY reveal that removing meteorological influence also adjusts the profile shape of pollutants. For instance, the NO2 profile at HFDP during the winter season shifted from a bimodal to an exponential shape after de-weathering. Overall, this study sheds light on the complex interplay between meteorological factors and trace gases at various altitudes across different geographic locations, offering insights crucial for
