This paper summarizes the results of a yearlong continuous measurements of gaseous pollutants, NO, NO2, NO, and O-3 in the ambient air at Kathmandu valley. Measured concentration of the pollutants in study area is a function of time. NO, NO2 and O-3 peak occurred in succession in presence of sunlight. At the time of maximum O-3 concentration most of the NOx are utilized. The diurnal cycle of ground level ozone concentrations, revealed mid-day peak with lower nocturnal concentrations and inverse relationship exists between O-3 and NOx which are evidences of photochemical O-3 formation. The observed ground level ozone during monsoon is slight lower than the pre-monsoon value. Further, lack of rainfall and higher temperature, solar radiation in the pre-monsoon have given rise to the gradual build up of ozone and it is lowest during winter. Ground level ozone concentrations measured during bandha (general strike) and weekend are 19% and 13% higher than those measured during weekdays. The most effective ozone abatement strategy for Kathmandu Valley may be control of NO, emissions. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
