Our aim, within the framework of the BEMA programme, was to use airborne measurements as input for the initial conditions and boundary conditions for models (TVM/LCC and TVM/RACM meso-scale models) developed by ISPRA, to study the influence of biogenic emissions on the ozone formation in a Mediterranean atmospheric boundary layer. This photochemical formation is connected to a non-linear reaction kinetics involving hydrocarbon and nitrogen oxide emissions. These measurements also allowed the models to be validated.
