Lower Fraser Valley oxidants study Pacific 93 - the meteorology / Joanne Pottier.: En57-45/93-8E-PDF
"The degree of success of the Pacific '93 field measurement program rested on the occurrence of ozone producing conditions between July 15th and August 12th. It was expected that under warm sunny conditions, weather briefings and forecasts would emphasize local conditions and determine the likelihood and duration of ozone episodes. Meteorological support would therefore supplement the planning process. What took place was an unanticipated and strong dependency of all activities on the weather situation. A highly unusual weather pattern brought unstable and rainy conditions to the Lower Fraser Valley during the first two weeks of the study. This complicated the planning process and posed some unforeseen logistic concerns as well as rigorous forecasting demands. This report describes the dependency of the field study on meteorological information"--Introduction, page [1].
