الملخص

Tropospheric ozone (O₃) is formed via transport from stratospheric O₃ and by oxidation of carbon monoxide (CO) and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in the presence of NO_x (NO + NO₂). In fact, presence of NO_xis important in formation of O₃. In the presence of VOCs and NO_x, chlorine atoms also play a role in the formation of tropospheric O₃. Monitoring the concentration of O₃ in the troposphere "where we live" is very important and that is due to its effect on human's health as well as agricultural crops.
