Xibeijie in Gansu reflects the Gansu Loess Plateau's semi-arid corridor position, with vehicle traffic on surrounding roads and agricultural and local manufacturing operations contributing modest local sources. Windblown loess plateau dust generates elevated PM10, while the relatively low industrial density and the elevated plateau position generally maintain moderate northwestern China Loess Plateau readings throughout most of the year.
