The mixing ratios of surface ozone at two rural/remote sites in Thailand, Inthanon and Srinakarin, have been measured continuously for the first time. Almost identical seasonal variations of O3with dry season maximum and a wet season minimum with a large seasonal amplitude are observed at both sites during 1996–1998. At Inthanon, the monthly averaged O3mixing ratios range 9–55ppb, with the annual average of 27ppb. The ozone mixing ratios at Srinakarin are in the similar range, 9–45ppb with annual average of 28ppb. Based on trajectory analysis of O3data at Inthanon, the long-range transport of O3under Asian monsoon regime could primarily explain the low O3mixing ratios of 13ppb in clean marine air mass from Indian Ocean during wet season but only partly explain the relatively low O3mixing ratios, 26ppb or less, in continental air mass from northeast Asia either in wet or dry season. The highest O3mixing ratios are found in air masses transported within southeast Asia, averaged 46ppb in dry season. The high O3mixing ratios during the dry season are suggested to be significantly due to the local/sub-regional scale O3production triggered by biomass burning in southeast Asia rather than long-range transport effect.
