Elevated mixing ratios of ozone in the lower troposphere are a major summer time air pollution issue in Europe. Photochemical in-situ production is the most important source of ozone in the planetary boundary layer and has been studied extensively. However ...
Stratospheric aerosols play a significant role in stratospheric chemistry. In the past, it was assumed that only liquid droplets are present in the stratosphere. Nevertheless, a few lidar measurements have shown that sudden enhancement of aerosol content i ...
[1] During the last 5 years, information on the regional tropospheric ozone levels over the eastern Mediterranean has become available but was confined to measurements at ground level. Here available information is expanded with measurements at two more ru ...
Tropospheric ozone (O3) is a harmful pollutant and an increasingly important green-house gas. Tropospheric O3 distributions are determined by complex and non-linear interactions between photochemistry and transport processes. The first objective of this th ...
We use the GEOS-Chem model to interpret long-term measurements of tropospheric O3 and CO and to investigate the factors that contribute to their interannual variation (IAV) during the period from 1987 to 2005 with a focus on the northern mid-latitu ...
Chemical kinetics were determined for the reactions of ozone and hydroxyl radicals with the three cyanotoxins microcystin-LR (MC-LR), cylindrospermopsin (CYN) and anatoxin-a (ANTX). The second-order rate constants (k(O3)) at pH 8 were 4.1 +/- 0.1 x 10(5) M ...
The decomposition of ozone in wastewater is observed starting 350 milliseconds after ozone addition. It seems not to be controlled by the autocatalytic chain reaction, hut rather by direct reactions with reactive moieties of the dissolved organic matter (D ...
Comparison of advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) can be difficult due to physical and chemical differences in the fundamental processes used to produce (OH)-O-. radicals. This study compares the ability of several AOPs, including ozone, ozone+H2O2, low pr ...
Kinetics and product formation of the anti-epileptic drug carbamazepine (CBZ) were investigated in lab-scale experiments during reactions with ozone and OH radicals. Ozone reacts rapidly with the double bond in CBZ, yielding several ozonation products cont ...
This paper concerns an evaluation of ozone (O-3) and planetary boundary layer (PBL) dynamics over the complex topography of the Grenoble region through a combination of measurements and mesoscale model (METPHOMOD) predictions for three days, during July 19 ...
