Abstract
A ten-year data base of oxidant concentration measurements has been combined with Korshover's criteria for stagnating anticyclones to estimate the frequency of association of elevated oxidant concentrations with such anticyclones. The highest frequency of coincidence occurs in the months of August and September in Cincinnati, Philadelphia, St. Louis and Washington, D.C. Relaxing Korshover's criteria increases the frequency of coincidence modestly. Limitations in the approach used are discussed and modifications suggested.
