“Bad” Ozone Formation Urban or photochemical smog O2 + O O3 VOCs + NOx + sunlight smog VOCs or hydrocarbons: solvents, fuels, chemicals NOx: fossil fuels
Health Concerns Irritant Respiratory Problems Headaches More problematic for elderly & children
Calibration Results 9223 SSE value
How to Model AQI for Distant Locations Meteorological: temperature, precipitation, pressure Wind: speed and direction Topography variations between the locations Dispersion equations
