Climatic norm of surface ozone in clear atmosphere of Belarus

Abstract

Based on observations of concentrations of surface ozone and anthropogenic air pollutants in cities, the climatic normal of surface ozone was determined under conditions of Belarusian typical climate and “clear” atmosphere free from anthropogenic pollution. One has assumed that such a norm should serve as the “reference point” to take account of the influence of meteorological and anthropogenic factors on surface ozone and to assess its long-term changes (trend) over the country with a relatively small territory. The problem is addressed by using the previously revealed dependence of ozone concentration on meteorological conditions and on concentrations of anthropogenic pollutants being measured at the sites for monitoring atmospheric air located in the regional centers. The computation technique and approximations employed are both described in detail. The obtained results are compared to the observations conducted at the Berezinsky Biosphere Reserve.
