Summertime tropospheric ozone source apportionment study in the Madrid region (Spain).

ABSTRACT: The design of emission abatement measures to effectively reduce high ground-level ozone (O₃) concentrations in urban areas is very complex. In addition to the strongly non-linear chemistry of this secondary pollutant, precursors can be released by a variety of sources in different regions, and locally produced O₃ is mixed with that transported from the regional or continental scales. All of these processes depend also on the specific meteorological conditions and topography of the study area. Consequently, high-resolution comprehensive modeling tools are needed to understand the drivers of photochemical pollution and to assess the potential of local strategies to reduce adverse impacts from high tropospheric O₃ levels. In this study, we apply the Integrated
