Levels of "background ozone" — ozone pollution present in a region but not originating from local, human-produced sources — are high [in the two states.] Background ozone can be produced from natural ... sources such as wildfires, and transported via winds from distant sources, such as the stratosphere or another region or country. 3, record 1, English, - background%20ozone

... of the World Meteorological Organization. The Atmospheric Research and Environment Programme promotes atmospheric research and development and technology transfer between Members. It includes the Global Atmosphere Watch, which integrates monitoring and research activities carried out under the Global Ozone Observing System (GO3OS) and the Background Air Pollution Monitoring Network (BAPMoN) and serves as a system to detect changes in the composition of the atmosphere, an important prerequisite to understanding human impact on the atmosphere and addressing important aspects of sustainable development. The Programme also includes weather prediction research; a Tropical Meteorology Research Programme relating to studies of monsoons, tropical cyclones, rain-producing tropical weather systems and droughts; and a programme on the physics and chemistry of clouds and weather modification. 2, record 2, English, - Atmospheric%20Research%20and%20Environment%20Programme

[...] de l'Organisation météorologique mondiale. Le PRAE vise à stimuler la recherche atmosphérique, de même que l'élaboration de techniques et leur échange entre les Membres. Un de ses volets est la Veille de l'atmosphère globale, qui regroupe toutes les activités de surveillance et de recherche menées dans le cadre du Système mondial d’observation de l'ozone(SMOO3) et du Réseau de surveillance de la pollution atmosphérique de fond(PABMoN) et dont l'objectif essentiel est de détecter les modifications de la composition de l'atmosphère, ce qui est indispensable pour bien comprendre l'influence de l'homme sur l'atmosphère et pour faciliter la pratique d’un développement durable. Il comprend aussi des programmes de recherche sur la prévision météorologique, un programme de recherche en météorologie tropicale-englobant l'étude de la mousson, des cyclones tropicaux, des systèms météorologiques tropicaux pluvigènes et des sécheresses-et un programme de recherche sur la physique et la chimie des nuages et sur la modification artificielle du temps. 3, record 2, French, - Programme%20consacr%C3%A9%20%C3%A0%20la%20recherche%20atmosph%C3%A9rique%20et%20%C3%A0%20l%26rsquo%3Benvironnement

La nature de l’ozone ne favorise pas une accumulation de longue durée, particulièrement dans la haute atmosphère. Dans la troposphère, surtout au-dessus des centrales électriques, on assiste parfois à une augmentation de la concentration normale pouvant aller jusqu’à dix pour cent. L’accumulation d’ozone est à l’origine des smogs, épisodes particulièrement dangereux de pollution atmosphérique. 1, record 3, French, - accumulation%20d%26rsquo%3Bozone%20atmosph%C3%A9rique
