RESUMEN
The widespread nature of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic is gradually changing people’s lives and impacting economic development worldwide. Owing to the curtailment of daily activities during the lockdown period, anthropogenic emissions of air pollutants have greatly reduced, and this influence is expected to continue in the foreseeable future. Spatiotemporal variations in aerosol optical depth (AOD) can be used to analyze this influence. In this study, we comprehensively analyzed AOD and NO2 data obtained from satellite remote sensing data inversion. First, data were corrected using Eidetic three-dimensional‒long short-term memory to eliminate errors related to sensors and algorithms. Second, taking Hubei Province in China as the experimental area, spatiotemporal variations in AOD and NO2 concentration during the pandemic were analyzed. Finally, based on the results obtained, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on human life has been summarized. This work will be of great significance to the formulation of regional epidemic prevention and control policies and the analysis of spatiotemporal changes in aerosols.
