Abstract
In Grenland, Norway, a combination of industrial emissions and urban areas may cause high oxidant episodes. To clarify the local oxidant formation potential within the area, a model describing both photochemical and dispersion effects was developed. This paper describes the results of a cooperation between Institute of Geophysics, University of Oslo, and Norwegian Institute for Air Research (NILU) (1).
