The prediction of tropospheric ozone concentrations is very important due to the negative impacts of ozone on human health, climate and vegetation. The mean concentration of ozone at the studied areas had not exceeded the recommended value of Malaysia Ambient Air Quality Guideline (MAAQG) for 8-hour average (0.06 ppm), however some of the measurements exceeded the hourly permitted concentration by MAAQG that is 0.1 ppm. Higher concentration of ozone can be observed during the daytime since ozone needs sunlight for the photochemical reactions. The diurnal cycle of ozone concentration has a mid-day peak (14:00-15:00) and lower night-time concentrations. The ozone concentration slowly rises after the sun rises (08:00), reaching a maximum during daytime and then decreases until the next morning. 2020-06-25T07:24:58Z 2020-06-25T07:24:58Z 2016 Article Engineering Technology International Conference 2016 (ETIC 2016), vol.97 (20016) 2261-236X (Online) http://dspace.unimap.edu.my:80/xmlui/handle/123456789/65366 https://www.matec-conferences.org/ 10.1051/matecconf/20179701048 en MATEC Web of Conferences; EDP Sciences
