Summary
Ozone data for April–September 1985 were collected from 24 monitoring stations in 9 countries in OECD-Europe. Frequency distributions, mean and extreme concentrations, trajectory sector distributions and occurrence of regional episodes are given together with a brief discussion of one oxidant episode.
