Fine particulate matter (PM2.5) is a major source of air pollution and exerts serious impacts on human health. The 3D urban landscape patterns can significantly affect the diffusion and emissions of PM2.5. However, studies on the relationships between 3D urban landscape patterns and PM2.5 pollution across different seasons remain understudied. With the ground-level air pollutants estimated by the remote sensing and fine-scale building information, this study applied the multiscale geographically weighted regression model to explore such relationships. Wuhan, the largest metropolis in Central China, was selected as the study area for the application of our methodology. The results showed that the direction, degree, and scale of the effect of 3D urban landscape patterns on PM2.5 pollution varied across seasons. For building height, the standard deviation of building height had a significant positive correlation with PM2.5 all year round. For building density, the building count density showed a significant positive correlation with PM2.5 in general, with the bandwidth in winter and autumn smaller than in spring and summer. The building plan area fraction exerted both positive and negative influences on PM2.5, dependent on season and location. The bandwidth of it gradually increased from spring to winter, with the effect changing from local to regional scale. For building volume, the floor area ratio showed a significant negative correlation with PM2.5 in winter and autumn, and a localized effect was found, especially in winter. The findings of this study provide practical implications for urban planning and policy making to mitigate PM2.5 pollution in the rapidly urbanizing regions.
