Description:Ozone in the urban atmosphere can accumulate from photochemistry involving nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, and volatile organic compounds mainly emitted from fossil fuel combustions and volatile chemical products. Concentrated ozone near the earth's surface has a detrimental impact on the ecosystem and our health. The Los Angeles Basin is a classic example of an urban region with long-standing ozone pollution, frequently in violation of its standard, designated by the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Studies have reported substantial declines of ozone and their precursor concentrations over the past half century in this area due to extensive pollution controls. Since 2000, however, the ozone design value has remained
