摘要

Tropospheric ozone(O3)continues to be a threat to human health and agricultural productivity.While O3 control is challenging,tracking underlying formation mechanisms provides insights for regulatory directions.Here,we describe a comprehensive analysis of the effects of changing emissions on O3 formation mechanisms with observational evidence.We present a new approach that provides a quantitative metric for the ozone production rate(OPR)and its sensitivity to precursor levels by interpreting two decades of in situ observations of the six criteria air pollutants(2001-2018).Applying to the South Coast Air Basin(SoCAB),California,we show that by 2016-2018,the basin was at the transition region between nitrogen oxide(NOx)-limited and volatile organic compound(VOC)-limited chemical regimes.Assuming future weather conditions are similar to 2016-2018,we predict that NOx-focused reduction is required to reduce the number of summer days the SoCAB is in violation of the National Ambient Air Quality Standard(70 ppbv)for O3.Roughly,~40%(~60%)NO.,.reductions are required to reduce the OPR by ~1.8 ppb/h(~3.3 ppb/h).This change would reduce the number of violation days from 28 to 20%(10%)in a year,mostly in summertime.Concurrent VOC reductions which reduce the production rate of HCV,radicals would also be beneficial.
