The sensitivity of regional ozone (03) modeling to uncertainties in biogenic emission estimates has been studied with the United States Environmental Protection Agency's Regional Oxidant Model (ROM). Photochemical oxidants in the northeastern United States were simulated for the period 2–17 July 1988, one of the most severe air stagnation episodes in the last decade. In the simulations, biogenic hydrocarbon emissions were adjusted by a factor of 3 to account for the existing range of uncertainty in these emissions. The impact of biogenic emission uncertainties on O3predictions depended upon the availability of NOx. In most cases, O3concentrations increased in response to increases in biogenic hydrocarbon emissions. However, in some extremely NOx-limited areas, increasing the amount of biogenic emissions decreased O3concentrations. Two control strategies were also examined in the simulations: (1) reduced anthropogenic hydrocarbon emissions, and (2) reduced anthropogenic hydrocarbon and NOxemissions. The simulations showed that controls of hydrocarbon emissions were more beneficial to the New York City area, but that combined NO, and hydrocarbon controls were more beneficial to other areas of the Northeast. For the most part, the preference for a combined strategy persisted across the range of uncertainty in biogenic emissions. There were some localized areas where the preference for control technique depended upon the assumed level of biogenic emissions.
