The TOAR-II database is a collection of quality-controlled measurements of surface ozone, its precursors and meteorological data from various environmental agencies and programs around the world, and also from universities and individual researchers. This database is built to support the second phase of the Tropospheric Ozone Assessment Report (https://igacproject.org/activities/TOAR/TOAR-II).
We are currently processing all available data and will update you regularly on what is available through our web services (see https://toar-data.fz-juelich.de).
