Abstract: Climate change and air pollution are important environmental problems facing humankind. The effects of air pollution on climate change and its feedback mechanisms have become a research focus in the air pollution and climate change fields. In this paper, an air pollution and climate change interaction mechanism was synthesized, and domestic and international research results on air pollution impacts on climate change and on feedback mechanisms were systematically analyzed. In particular, black carbon and sulfate aerosol radiative forcing and their climatic effects, as well as the impacts of climate change on ground-level ozone and particulate matter, were investigated. The review shows that there are no an integrated effects mechanism model of air pollution which has integrated the whole process include meteorological conditions, emissions sources, earth surface etc. So it is difficult to quantitatively to study the atmospheric composition evolution process under different meteorological situation. Problems in the present research area were discussed, and some ideas on developing research trends were introduced, including efforts to better understand the mechanisms and to reduce the uncertainty of the model. Future research should be strengthened in the following areas:preparation of emission inventories, building of three-dimensional observation networks, mutual feed-forward mechanism tests and integration and coupling of different models.
