Tropospheric ozone (O3) is a gaseous air pollutant that can impact forest vegetation, causing effects ranging from visible injury to reduced carbon sink strength of forest trees, and it is thus a priority for the UNECE Convention on Long-range Transboundary Air Pollution. Emissions associated with the burning of fossil fuel and biomass have approximately doubled the mean global tropospheric ozone concentrations, and further increases are expected over the course of the twenty-first century.

Abstract
Tropospheric ozone (O3) is a gaseous air pollutant that can impact forest vegetation, causing effects ranging from visible injury to reduced carbon sink strength of forest trees, and it is thus a priority for the UNECE Convention on Long-range Transboundary Air Pollution. Emissions associated with the burning of fossil fuel and biomass have approximately doubled the mean global tropospheric ozone concentrations, and further increases are expected over the course of the twenty-first century.
