Title: Understanding the Photochemical Smog in Megacities of China

Abstract: While Chinese cities have long topped global rankings of the
world's worst air quality, they have shown steady improvement over the
years. In this presentation, an overview of the air quality of Shanghai,
the most populous urban area in China, will be presented, with a focus on
the emissions of volatile organic compounds from major industry and
transportation sectors, and how these emissions contribute the
photochemical smog characterized by high levels of ozone and particulate
matters in the city.
