Development of Ozone prediction model in urban area

One of the main challenges for countries in tropical area such as Malaysia is the high concentration of ozone (O3) caused by elevated levels of anthropogenic and natural ozone precursors. In this study, variation of O3 concentrations in urban area (Klang) was investigated using data covering three-y...
