Abstract

Results and analysis of ozone monitoring at station Sr| (46.25° N, 17.45° E, 412 m a.s.l.) near Dubrovnik from 1998 – 2005 are reported. It is confirmed that this is an unpolluted place despite of high summer solar radiation which could contribute to the photochemical air pollution formation. There is no significant trend in ozone levels found during this time and the overall aver­age ozone fraction is found to be 46 ppb for the summer periods.
