Background & Key Questions
O3 in Japanese sites Surface ozone in Japanese sites are increasing. Asian emissions are rapidly growing and will increase in future. What is influence of increasing emissions on evolution of O3 ? What is the impact of changing emissions on O3 in future ?

Objectives & Approach Future projection of surface ozone over East Asia. To do so, Ozone simulation between 1980 and 2003 with CMAQ and emission inventory (REAS). Validation of modeled seasonal and long-term variations by ground-based observations. Future projection of O3 based on emission scenarios for 2010 and 2020. O3 meas. at multiple sites Regional CTM (CMAQ) - validation improvement Emission inventory (REAS) - historical, current, and future emissions

China Japan Other East Asia Southeast Asia India Other South Asia ・Asian NOx emissions will be growing in future in any scenario. ・Chinese NOx, which dominate Asian growth, depends strongly on scenario. ・Recent growth in China exceeds “the worst case”.

Impacts of ozone from Asian continent (June)
Monthly ozone concentration Ozone from Asian continent > 60 ppb 5~15 ppb Contribution of Asian continent = 1/10 ~ 1/5 Japanese O3 is strongly influenced by that produced from Asian continent. Tanimoto et al. (2005)
16
Long-term variations of surface ozone over Japan & Chinese emissions
Observed O3 over Japan (average of 350 monitoring stations) d(O3) = (O3)year– (O3) (ppb) Modeled O3 over Japan d (Emis.) = Eyear – E Mt yr-1 NOx & NMVOC emissions in China Year ・ CMAQ can reproduce the long-term trend of surface O3 over Japan. ・ O3 trend in Japan is correlated with that of Chinese emissions.

Trends and future changes of surface ozone over Japan and Chinese emissions
NOx VOC Past Future High sensitive to NOx Low sensitive to VOC d(Emis.)/E % ・O3 growth seems to be more sensitive to Chinese emissions for NOx than for NMVOC. Modeled O3 over Japan PFC REF PSC d(O3) = (O3)year– (O3) (ppb) d(Emis.) = Eyear – E Mt yr-1 NOx & NMVOC emissions in China Year ・In future, surface O3 over Japan is proportional with Chinese emissions.

22
Summary and conclusions
● Increases of Asian emissions are continuing at present. (e.g.) NOx increased 3 times from 1980 to 2003. ● Asian emissions will increase in future, but it depends on the scenarios. ● REAS/RAMS/CMAQ can catch the feature of seasonal and long-term variations of O3 observation. ● Model with an emission scenario predicts that future O3 may be an important environmental issue in Asia. ● Grow of Chinese emissions influences the evolution of O3 over Japan. This will be going in future.
