Chemistry, street canyon geometry, and emissions effects on NO2 “hotspots” and regulatory “wiggle room”

Abstract The extent to which nitrogen dioxide (NO2) undergoes complex chemical-transport processes near strong nitrogen-oxide sources in street canyons is not fully understood. A multi-box framework with volatile organic compound (VOC) chemistry has been evaluated against large-eddy simulation (LES)...
