Examination of regional ozone formation: POCPs for Western Australia and comparisons to other continents ?
POCPs are determined for Perth, Western Australia & compared with those from other Continents. VOC are ranked by POCP & POCP-weighted emission across high and low air pollution regions. Some common VOC contributing to high O3 are identified across 4 Continents. These common VOC are a group of 27 alkane, alkene, aromatic and oxygenated compounds. Overall analysis identifies potential target VOC for further emission control studies.
