Abstract
In this study, an assessment has been made on the wind speed; temperature and atmospheric pressure were analyzed by considering meteorological variables for selected high ozone cases. The Systems Applications International Meso-scale Model (SAIMM), a prognostic meteorological model was used to develop the 3-dimensional meteorological inputs to a chemical model. Meteorological conditions favorable for high ozone concentrations appear when Istanbul and the surrounding region is dominated by an anticyclonic pressure system. During the ozone favorabledays, south and southwesterly winds with low wind speed influence Istanbul. We presented wind field simulations for a case study in explaining the ozone formation mechanism over Istanbul.
