Abstract | Tropospheric ozone (O-3) pollution is increasing in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei (BTH) region de-spite a significant decline in atmospheric fine aerosol particles (PM2.5) in recent years. How-ever, the intrinsic reason for the elevation of the regional O-3 is still unclear. In this study, we analyzed the spatio-temporal variations of tropospheric O-3 and relevant pollutants (PM2.5, NO2, and CO) in the BTH region based on monitoring data from the China Ministry of Ecology and Environment during the period of 2014-2019. The results showed that summertime O-3 concentrations were constant in Beijing (BJ, 0.06 pg/(m(3).year)) but increased significantly in Tianjin (TJ, 9.09 pg/(m(3).year)) and Hebei (HB, 6.06 pg/(m(3).year)). Distinct O-3 trends between Beijing and other cities in BTH could not be attributed to the significant decrease in PM2.5 (from-5.08 to-6.32 pg/(m(3).year)) and CO (from-0.053 to-0.090 mg/(m(3).year)) because their decreasing rates were approximately the same in all the cities. The relatively stable O-3 con-centrations during the investigating period in BJ may be attributed to a faster decreasing rate of NO2 (BJ:-2.55 pg/(m(3).year); TJ:-1.16 pg/(m(3).year); HB:-1.34 pg/(m(3).year)), indicating that the continued reduction of NOx will be an effective mitigation strategy for reducing regional O-3 pollution. Significant positive correlations were found between daily maximum 8 hr average (MDA8) O-3 concentrations and vehicle population and highway freight trans-portation in HB. Therefore, we speculate that the increase in rural NOx emissions due to the increase in vehicle emissions in the vast rural areas around HB greatly accelerates regional O-3 frmation, accounting for the significant increasing trends of O-3 in HB.
