英文摘要 | Arid urban areas are pivotal in the global landscape, and their air quality issues are highlighted by the complexities of tropospheric ozone production. Here, we use recent satellite observations from TROPOMI and a longer record of data from OMI to investigate the levels of ozone precursors (NO2 and CH2O) in 12 major cities in arid regions. Using a space-based CH2O/NO2 indicator, we identified the dominant chemical regime influencing ozone formation, revealing a clear temporal trend that aligns with previously reported economic trajectories as well as variation in emission control strategies implemented in these cities. Our results show that, NO2 concentrations decreased in cities with proactive regulatory policies, such as Madrid and Los Angeles in semi-arid and arid regions. A contrasting increase was observed in rapidly developing cities within arid and hyper-arid regions, such as Tehran and Cairo, where emission controls are less strict. An increase in CH2O levels was also apparent, requiring more attention to VOCs control. Furthermore, our analysis clearly shows that the interactions between ozone production and climatic factors such as temperature exhibit a nonlinear relationship, especially in arid climates. These findings highlight the importance of emission reduction strategies that consider the meteorological and chemical drivers of dry regions, particularly in light of the rising global aridity. |
