samples were collected in four seasons to investigate the seasonal variation of water-soluble organic carbon(WSOC)over Xi'an
China. The total organic carbon analyzer and the thermal optical carbon analyzer were used to detect the concentration of WSOC
organic carbon(OC)
and element carbon(EC)
respectively. The results show that the average concentration of WSOC was 17.2 μg/m

14.9 μg/m

28.3 μg/m

and 32.5 μg/m

from spring to winter. The percentage of WSOC in OC was highest in summer and lowest in winter. WSOC had a good correlation with OC(R=0.86)and had a poor relationship with EC(R=0.22). Moreover
the signi
ficant correlation was observed between WSOC and secondary organic carbon(SOC)(R=0.87)
indicating that the WSOC in PM
10
might be mainly caused by the photochemical reaction.
