abstract = {Increasing trends in biomass burning emissions
significantly impact air quality in North America. Enhanced
mixing ratios of ozone (O3) in urban areas during
smoke-impacted periods occur through transport of O3
produced within the smoke or through mixing of pyrogenic
volatile organic compounds (PVOCs) with urban nitrogen
oxides (NOx = NO + NO2) to enhance local O3 production.
Here, we analyze a set of detailed chemical measurements,
including carbon monoxide (CO), NOx, and speciated volatile
organic compounds (VOCs), to evaluate the effects of smoke
transported from relatively local and long-range fires on O3
measured at a site in Boulder, Colorado, during summer 2020.
Relative to the smoke-free period, CO, background O3, OH
reactivity, and total VOCs increased during both the local
and long-range smoke periods, but NOx mixing ratios remained
approximately constant. These observations are consistent
with transport of PVOCs (comprised primarily of oxygenates)
but not NOx with the smoke and with the influence of O3
produced within the smoke upwind of the urban area.
Box-model calculations show that local O3 production during
all three periods was in the NOx-sensitive regime.
Consequently, this locally produced O3 was similar in all
three periods and was relatively insensitive to the increase
in PVOCs. However, calculated NOx sensitivities show that
PVOCs substantially increase O3 production in the transition
and NOx-saturated (VOC-sensitive) regimes. These results
suggest that (1) O3 produced during smoke transport is the
main driver for O3 increases in NOx-sensitive urban areas
and (2) smoke may cause an additional increase in local O3
production in NOx-saturated (VOC-sensitive) urban areas.
Additional detailed VOC and NOx measurements in smoke
impacted urban areas are necessary to broadly quantify the
effects of wildfire smoke on urban O3 and develop effective
mitigation strategies.},
