| Exploratory field measurements in the Mexico City Metropolitan Area (MCMA)
in February 2002 set the stage for a major air quality field measurement
campaign in the spring of 2003 (MCMA-2003). Involving over 100 scientists
from more than 30 institutions in Mexico, the United States and Europe,
MCMA-2003 revealed important new insights into the meteorology, primary
pollutant emissions, ambient secondary pollutant precursor concentrations,
photochemical oxidant production and secondary aerosol particle formation in
North America's most populated and polluted megacity. A description of
meteorological and atmospheric chemistry and aerosol microphysics
measurements performed during MCMA-2003 is presented. More than 40
published or submitted MCMA-2003 research papers are reviewed and key
discoveries pertinent to understanding and improving air quality in Mexico
City and similar megacities in the developing world are summarized. |
