Ozone Formation from NOx in “Clean Air”
Published
Journal Article
We present a theoretical model to explain recent observations of ozone in excess of 80 ppb in relatively rural areas. The proposed mechanism involves the interaction of anthropogenic nitrogen oxides from urban areas with the natural photochemical methane oxidation chain. This mechanism can cause the production of large quantities of ozone in the urban pollution plume, leading to high ozoneair pollution events in rural areas downwind of the urban pollution source. © 1976, American Chemical Society.
