Sensitivity of modelled urban background ozone concentrations to uncertainties in the grs input variables
In this work, we apply the Monte Carlo analysis to evaluate the uncertainty of modelled summer maximum ozone diurnal peak concentrations (Cmax) in the Metropolitan Area of Buenos Aires (MABA), Argentina resulting from uncertainties in the Generic Reaction Set (GRS) input variables, using the DAUMOD-...
