The future evolution of tropical ozone in a changing climate is investigated by analysing time slice simulations made with the chemistry–climate model EMAC. Between the present and the end of the 21st century a significant increase in ozone is found globally for the upper stratosphere and the extratropical lower stratosphere, while in the tropical lower stratosphere ozone decreases significantl...

The air layer between the nocturnal boundary layer and the top of the daily mixing layer in an ozonepolluted area is known to serve as an ozone reservoir since the ozone that is produced in the mixing layer on the preceding day is effectively preserved throughout the night in the air layer. Ozone reservoir layers existing at night can enhance the accumulation of surface ozone on the following d...

BACKGROUND City-to-city differences have been reported for the increase in short-term mortality associated with a given increase in ozone concentration (ozone mortality coefficient). Although ozone concentrations are monitored at central outdoor locations, a large fraction of total ozone exposure occurs indoors. OBJECTIVES To clarify the influence of indoor exposure to ozone of outdoor origin...

conclusions when gaseous ozone was used alone in root canals, its antifungal effect was not sufficient. however, applying aqueous ozone with ultrasonic technique showed stronger antifungal effects than aqueous ozone with manual technique in root canals. background candida albicans is one of the important microorganism which can be isolated from normal flora in the mouth. the resistance of c. al...

ozone is a triatomic molecule consisting of three oxygen atoms. it is applied to oral tissues in the forms of ozonated water, ozonated olive oil and oxygen/ozone gas. this paper presents a brief review on the chemistry of ozone as well as its medical and dental applications focusing on its use in endodontics. ozone’s antimicrobial activity, its effect on dentin bonding, toxicity and contra-indi...

Hydrocarbon Processing Industries (HPIs) emit large amounts of highly reactive hydrocarbons and Nitrogen Oxides to the atmosphere. Such simultaneous emissions of ozone precursors result in rapid and high yields ozone (O3) formation downwind. The climate of the Middle East has been shown to be favorable for O3 formation in summer. There are also vast activities in processing oil and gas in this ...

[1] The statistical relationship between springtime and summertime ozone over middle and polar latitudes is analyzed using zonally averaged total ozone data. Shortterm variations in springtime midlatitude ozone demonstrate only a modest correlation with springtime polar ozone variations. However by early summer, ozone variations throughout the extratropics are highly correlated. Analysis of cor...

Governments’ responses to the COVID-19 pandemic provide a unique opportunity study effects of restricted socioeconomic activity on air quality. Here, we changes in pollution levels during lockdown Medellín and its metropolitan area, Colombia, for periods with without enhanced regional fire activity, considering meteorology using random forest multiple linear regression methods. The measures, wh...

in this paper, the correlation between total ozone and upper air meteorological parameters such as heights of geopotential surfaces and temperatures for three stations of tehran, ankara and bet dagan located in the middle east, in cold period (jan, feb and march) of years of 2005, 2007 and 2008 has been investigated. data for upper air is taken from wyoming university and ozone data is from sat...
