To elucidate the critical factors influencing the ammonia (NH3) concentration in Beijing, this study combined observational analyses, backward trajectory calculations, and meteorology–chemistry coupled simulations to investigate the variations in the NH3 concentration from 11 May to 24 June, 2015. A significant positive correlation was found between the NH3 and PM2.5 concentrations in Beijing. By examining the relationships between meteorological parameters and the NH3 concentration, both near-surface temperature and relative humidity showed positive correlations with the NH3 concentration. The higher NH3 concentrations were usually associated with the warming of the upper atmosphere. Distinct wind directions were noted during the days of the top and bottom 33.3% NH3 concentrations. The top 33.3% concentrations were primarily related to southwesterly winds, while the bottom ones were associated with westerly and northerly winds. Since there are strong NH3 emissions in the southern plains adjacent to Beijing, the regional transport induced by the southerly prevailing winds would increase the NH3 concentration in Beijing significantly. From 23 to 25 May, more than one third of NH3 in Beijing was contributed by the southerly transport processes. Thus, joint efforts to reduce NH3 emissions in the whole Beijing–Tianjin–Hebei region are necessary to regulate the NH3 concentration in Beijing.
