Impact/Purpose:
The main objective of this task is to provide the Agency with instrumentation to support its monitoring activities with respect to establishing the ambient air concentrations of ozone and ozone precursors such as nitrogen oxides and volatile organic compounds.
Description:
The most appropriate monitoring methods for reactive nitrogen oxides are identified subject to the requirements for diagnostic testing of air quality simulation models. Measurements must be made over 1 h or less and with an uncertainty of
