| Abstract | In 2001, the European Union enacted Directive 2001/81/EC with the aim of limiting emissions of acidifying and eutrophying pollutants and ozone precursors by establishing national emissions ceilings for SO2, NOx, NMVOC and NH3, to be attained by 2010. The national emissions inventory for Spain (up to 2005) shows that the emissions exceed the established ceilings. A similar trend is also observed for greenhouse gas emissions in the framework of the Kyoto Protocol. In this study we evaluate the impact on ozone concentrations of a hypothetical emissions control (25% reductions in NOx and NMVOC from industry and traffic) during two episodes of photochemical pollution in the Iberian Peninsula. The simulations show hourly surface ozone reductions of around 30 μg/m3, which represents an improvement in air quality over large areas of the Peninsula. |
