I also thank the department for providing a one-semester fellowship for my dissertation research. I am deeply indebted to Minnesota Population Center for hosting me in its IT team for many years – it allowed me, a former software engineer, to keep abreast of the latest developments in computer technology while indulging in historical studies. Thanks are especially due to Steve Ruggles (MPC director) and Pete Clark (IT director) for giving me this great opportunity. The source materials for this dissertation mostly come from Liaoning Provincial Archives, Liaoning Provincial Library, and Meihekou Archives. I thank these institutions for their help. Liaoning Shekeyuan offered both warm reception and administrative help right after I arrived in Shenyang. My archival research in Shenyang also benefited greatly from Chris Isett’s help. Su Chen from East Asian Library at University of Minnesota has been helpful numerous times in locating important documents. My committee members, Mark Anderson, Ted Farmer, M.J.

There was a high visibility heavy pollution event in Shenyang on October 21st, 2014. This paper analyzes the formation and maintenance of the heavy pollution weather from the aspects of weather situation, meteorological elements, atmospheric stability and pollutants transportation. The results show that the heavy pollution weather process is due to the surface layer atmosphere transports local atmospheric pollutants into the air by turbulent motion, and the inversion of the upper block pollutants diffuse into the sky, plus the northeaster wind transport, the heavy pollution occurs in Shenyang area. In the event of heavy pollution, the relative humidity is relatively low, and the moisture absorption effect of particulate matter in the atmosphere is limited, so the atmospheric visibility is not reduced to a lower level.
