Ozone pollution near Earth’s surface is one of the main ingredients of summertime smog. It is also not directly measurable from space due to the abundance of ozone higher in the atmosphere, which obscures measurements of surface ozone. —Jin et al.

Automobile tire producers are looking for alternative solutions for natural rubber made from latex-bearing trees. Sharkey’s research team already has measured rates of isoprene emission from plants that are used by the Environmental Protection Agency to predict lower-atmosphere ozone levels.

Researchers at the University of Toronto have found that natural sunlight triggers the release of smog-forming NO x compounds from the grime that typically coats buildings, statues and other outdoor surfaces in urban areas. Among these compounds are nitrogen oxides. —James Donaldson.

lower ozone formation potential of the carbonyl compounds present than DF under the identical operating conditions. In addition, there was an 18.0–35.8% reduction in total carbonyls and a 3.4–100% 100% drop in individual carbonyls in the constant load/varying speed test mode. CFT had 16.5–44.1% —Hao et al. 2014.05.025.

They found that levels of pollutants that can contribute to the formation of ground-level ozone, or smog, have failed to continue a fairly steady decline as estimated by the US Environmental Protection Agency. These results show that meeting future air quality standards for ozone pollution will be more challenging than previously thought.
