Abstract: Study on the interaction between urbanization and ambient air quality is an essential basis to guide urban sustainable development and formulate environmental policies. Firstly we evaluated the urbanization and ambient air quality of Wuhan Urban Agglomeration by combining Principal Component Analysis and integrated AQI. And then we explored relationship between urbanization and ambient air quality through curve fitting analysis make. The results revealed that: (1) The integrated level of urbanization in Wuhan Urban Agglomeration entered the stage of rapid development, with a hierarchical structure taking Wuhan as the core, Huangshi and Ezhou as the sub-core, and Xianning and Xiaogan as the margin. (2) The centers of the air pollution mainly concentrated in Wuhan, Huanggang, Ezhou and Huangshi, with PM10 as the principle pollutant. (3) The air-urbanization curve was wavy, complex and changeable. Different cities have various effects of ambient air due to the differences in their natural geographical backgrounds, urban development type and economic industrial structure. There are mainly three types in Wuhan Urban Agglomeration: compound air pollution in Wuhan, soot-dominated air pollution in Huangshi and Ezhou, transformational air pollution mixed by soot and motor vehicle exhaust in Xianning and Tianmen. In the future, we need to strengthen the joint prevention on air pollution during the process of integrity. And we also need to take targeted measure to abate pollution according to the characteristics of the city.

Key words: urbanization, ambient air, IAQI, Wuhan Urban Agglomeratio
