Nitrogen oxides and photochemical oxidants in Cairo City atmosphere
Abstract Concentrations of nitrogen oxides were measured continuously for a period of 12 months in the city of Cairo. Photochemical oxidants were examined and their appearance was found to be highly dependent on the NOx diurnal cycle and wind speed. Nitrogen oxides were found to exceed 10 times the USA air quality standard. Oxidants concentrations were found to exceed 0.1 ppm, average over 1 h, on 74% of the measured days.
