This action has affected air pollution due to a decline in transportation. Therefore, this study investigates spatial and temporal change in the PM 2.5 concentrations during the first 4 months of 2020 in Hanoi metropolitan area. Spatial distribution maps of the PM 2.5 concentration in Hanoi were provided for the first time. The average PM 2.5 concentrations at the 22 air monitoring stations were strongly correlated with the population. April had a significantly lower level of PM 2.5 than the other 3 months. In particular, the concentrations of PM 2.5 and NO 2 decreased by 12 and 54%, respectively, between March and April, especially at areas for commercial activities. In April, a higher level of PM 2.5 was recorded between Tuesday–Thursday, which is a reverse trend with that in March. Furthermore, Monday and Friday did not show ...
