Abstract
Тemporal variations of ozone concentrations in the troposphere of St. Petersburg (Russia), little urbanized area in the South of Kirov region (the town of Vyatskiye Polyany) and the Karadag nature reserve in Crimea are presented. A comparative analysis of the dynamics of surface ozone concentrations in these areas was conducted and the basic features of seasonal and diurnal variations was demonstrated. Latitudinal dependence of the concentrations of ground-level ozone are presented.
