Owning a pet is a big responsibility. They provided details about the mix of hydrocarbons, how their patterns change with time of day, their relationships with other types of air pollutants, and their toxic concentrations. This provides data for air quality models simulating ozone production in the region, so Washington's Department of Ecology may find ways to reduce ozone levels. The Cascadia Ozone Forum explores meteorological and photochemical modeling options to reduce ozone in urban centers and downwind. A scoping study in 1994 provided baseline information about the spatial distribution of nitrogen oxides.
Growers now mow and spray the corners.
Replanting the corners with native vegetation could reduce those inputs. Gillespie estimates there are 45,000 to 50,000 acres of corners in the Columbia Basin.
