Assessing the impact of ozone pollution on food security using a combined experimental and flux modelling approach

Maximising global food production is a priority for the international community. Ground-level ozone (O3) – a greenhouse gas and air pollutant – reduces yield in many important crops, and is a likely contributing factor to the global yield gap. This body of work applies experimental and modelling approaches to investigate how O3 reduces yield in soybean and wheat, and how these responses can be represented in models.
