Ozone trends for three metropolitan statistical areas in north carolina

摘要

As part of an effort by the state of North Carolina to develop a State Implementation Plan (SIP) for ozone control, a network of zonoe stations was established to monitor ozone concentrations across the state. Approximately twenty-five ozone stations made continuous measurements surrounding the three major Metropolitan Statistical Areas (MSAs) between 1993-1995: Raleigh/Durham (RDU), Charlotte/Mecklenburg (CLT), and Greensoro/Winton-Salem/High Point (GSO). Statistical Averages on the ozone data were performed at each MAS to study trends and/or relationships on high ozone days.
