Abstract

The spatial pattern of summertime ozone concentrations across the British Isles has been revealed using a simple long-range transport model (ELMO). The model describes the chemical development of air parcels reaching an array of 3064 arrival points after 4 days of travel across Europe during typical summertime photochemical episodic conditions. Model results have been compared against observations and the model responses to VOC and NO x controls against established indicator ratios. The model has been used to assess the likely impacts of policy commitments under the Gothenburg Protocol to the United Nations Convention on Long-Range Transboundary Air Pollution and other policy instruments.
