Increasing external effects negate local efforts to control ozone air pollution: a case study of Hong Kong and implications for other Chinese cities. [PDF]
, 2014 It is challenging to reduce ground-level ozone (O3) pollution at a given locale, due in part to the contributions of both local and distant sources. We present direct evidence that the increasing regional effects have negated local control efforts for O3
