During the summer, the ozone concentrations measured in central California frequently exceed the Federal ambient air quality standard. It is believed that this ozone problem results from a combination of local emissions, and transport of ozone and its precursors into the region due to the unique meteorological conditions of the area. To investigate this problem and to evaluate proposed emissions control strategies, a comprehensive field measurement program was conducted in central California during the summer of 1990. In this study, data collected during the August 3--6, 1990, ozone episode are analyzed. The characteristics of meteorology, emissions, and air quality are examined. The episode is simulated using the SARMAP modeling system. This paper presents the results of observations, simulations, and basic model performance for the August 3--6, 1990, ozone episode.
