摘要Near-surface ozone is one of the significant issues in the troposphere. Recently, ozone pollution in Lhasa at an altitude of 3600 m has caused attention. The current knowledge of ozone formation in Lhasa city is still minimal. In this work, the profile of VOCs during early summer was investigated, and alkanes were the most critical group of VOCs. The urban areas of Lhasa are under transition conditions and controlled by both VOCs and NOx. Moreover, the most effective way to decrease ozone formation is to reduce the emissions of anthropogenic VOCs and NOx. The vertical distribution of tropospheric ozone was investigated using differential absorption lidar (DIAL). The results show that ozone concentrations decreased with the elevation of altitudes over Lhasa. The vertical distribution showed clear diurnal trends and that a high ozone concentration appeared at night because of the afternoon's accumulated O-3 generated by photochemical reactions. Ozone in Lhasa is mainly distributed between 0.4 km and 0.6 km. Local generation, overnight accumulation, and NOx titration were identified as three ozone distribution modes. This work helps to understand ozone formation and distribution in the Tibetan Plateau.
