Assessment of ozone variations and meteorological effects in an urban area in the Mediterranean Coast.
Ozone concentrations are valuable indicators of possible health and environmental impacts. However, they are also used to monitor changes and trends in the sources of both ozone and its precursors. For this purpose, the influence of meteorological variables is a confusing factor. This study presents an analysis of a year of ozone concentrations measured in a coastal Spanish city. Firstly, the a...
متن کاملOzone production chemistry in the presence of urban plumes.
Ozone pollution affects human health, especially in urban areas on hot sunny days. Its basic photochemistry has been known for decades and yet it is still not possible to correctly predict the high ozone levels that are the greatest threat. The CalNex_SJV study in Bakersfield CA in May/June 2010 provided an opportunity to examine ozone photochemistry in an urban area surrounded by agriculture. ...
متن کاملShort Term Prediction of Surface Ozone using Artificial Neural Network Model in an Urban Area
In this paper a novel approach, based on a neural network structure, is introduced in order to face with the problem of pollutant estimation in an urban area. A neural architecture, based essentially on suitable number of layers devoted to predict alarm situations and to estimate the value of the pollutant, has been implemented. A new method for short term prediction is presented using the neur...
متن کاملScaling production and improving efficiency in DEA: an interactive approach
DEA models help a DMU to detect its (in-)efficiency and to improve activities, if necessary. Efficiency is only one economic aim for a decision-maker; however, up- or downsizing might be a second one. Improving efficiency is the main topic in DEA; the long-term strategy towards the right production size should attract our attention as well. Not always the management of a DMU primarily focuses o...
متن کاملImpact of organic nitrates on urban ozone production
Urban O3 is produced by photochemical chain reactions that amplify background O3 in mixtures of gaseous nitrogen oxides (NOx) and organic molecules. Current thinking treats NOx and organics as independent variables that limit O3 production depending on the NOx to organic ratio; in this paradigm, reducing organics either has no effect or reduces O3. We describe a theoretical counterexample where...
