Scientific objectives (1) Establish an effective measurement network to study ozone and ozone precursors, and use the measured result to evaluate WRF-Chem calculations. (2) Study whether the ozone formation is NOx inhibited or VOC limited in the city. How strong is the VOC-limitation to ozone formation in different locations in the Shanghai region? (3) Understand the impacts of different anthropogenic activities (e.g., traffic, chemical industry) on ozone formation in this region.
(4) Study the impact of high aerosol loading on photochemistry. How strong is the photon-limitation to ozone formation in different locations in the Shanghai region? (5) Understand the effect of biogenic emission on ozone concentrations in Shanghai and the surrounding region. How do biogenic emissions interact with anthropogenic emissions to form ozone ? (6) Assess the interactions between the city and surrounding area for ozone formation. (7) Establish a chemical weather forecast system (CWFS) to forecast O 3 and visibility and to assess the impact of the rapid economical development on the future air quality in YRD
