3 Focus on ozone (3º most important GHG) Ozone is formed from CO, CH 4, NOx, VOC and sunlight Indirect effect of CO on OH-CH 4 -O 3 equilibrium Except H 2 O and CO 2, all other species are removed by chemical reactions Main route is the reaction with OH e HO 2 at troposphere N 2 O, PFC, SF 6, CFC and halons are removed at stratosphere
