Air pollution in China has attracted much attention worldwide following the rapid industrialization and urbanization of the country. This talk first aims at giving an overview of the current infrastructure for the nationwide air quality monitoring network, highlighting its measurement capabilities (gas and particulate phases), spatial and temporal coverages, and the data quality control practices. Following this, more recent efforts (since 2013) on establishing modelling capabilities for air quality forecast in China will be presented, including the models used, their relative performance in comparison to real world measurements, and a few outstanding challenges that are specific to the Chinese atmospheric modelling.
