Popis: A simple urban ozone model for air quality management analysis is presented. The model is evaluated by comparing predicted and observed patterns in monthly average ozone maxima and dosages for two distinct urban areas and by comparing the simple model results for altered sources to the results of the Empirical Kinetic Modeling Approach (EKMA) and the Graedel complete urban air chemistry model. From these comparisons it is concluded that the simple ozone model can be used for accurate yet efficient qualitative analysis of the influence of various air quality policy options on future ozone impacts.
