Analysis of the results of monitoring tropospheric ozone in Moscow

Abstract

The article describes the negative impact of tropospheric ozone on the technobiosphere. It is noted that in recent decades, the growth rate of tropospheric ozone concentration has averaged 1–2% per year and it is necessary to form a new scientific and practical direction in ensuring technosphere safety related to natural and technogenic ozone. For its successful development, experimentally substantiated reference values of tropospheric ozone concentrations for the study areas are required. It has been shown that for an urbanized region it is advisable to use O3 concentrations averaged over time and over the territory. The average annual ozone concentration for 2022 obtained by the method of static assessment of the results of the database of the State Budgetary Institution "Mosecomonitoring" for 2022, averaged over the city territory and equal to 0.0376 mg/m3, can become a reference value in the territory of Moscow.
