| dc.description.abstract | Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are the main precursors of tropospheric ozone production, playing an important role in photochemical pollution of the atmosphere and, consequently, in the degradation of air quality. Air quality photochemical models require a specific VOC profile for each different main source, based on the most important group compounds. Chromatographic techniques have been used to identify and measure VOC in Portugal. These measured values were used to simulate photochemical pollution, and modelling results were compared with those from another simulation using VOC class distributions from the literature. Ozone concentration values estimated via both simulations indicate the importance of using VOC data from Portugal instead of those obtained in different conditions. | pt_PT |
