Nighttime ozone in the lower boundary layer: insights from 3-year tower-based measurements in South China and regional air quality modeling by G. He, G. He, C. He, C. He, H. Wang, H. Wang, X. Lu, X. Lu, C. Pei, X. Qiu, C. Liu, C. Liu, Y. Wang, Y. Wang, N. Liu, N. Liu, J. Zhang, L. Lei, Y. Liu, Y. Liu, H. Wang, H. Wang, T. Deng, Q. Fan, Q. Fan, S. Fan, S. Fan

“…This is tied to enhanced vertical mixing with the collapse of nighttime RL and the development of a convective mixing layer, which is supported by the CMAQ diagnosis of the ozone budget, suggesting that the mixing of ozone-rich air from nighttime RL<span id="page13108"/> downward to the surface via the entrainment is an important mechanism for aggravating ozone pollution the following day. We find that the bias in CMAQ-simulated surface MDA8 ozone the following day shows a strong correlation coefficient (<span class="inline-formula"><i>r</i>=</span> 0.74) with the bias in nighttime ozone in the RL, highlighting the necessity to correct air quality model bias in the nighttime RL ozone for accurate prediction of daytime ozone. …”
