At Delhi, averaged daytime surface O<sub>3</sub> concentration is minimum in winter and maximum in pre-monsoon with monsoon and post-monsoon values being about 0.79–0.82 times with respect to pre-monsoon O<sub>3</sub> concentrations. High natural/anthropogenic pollutant concentration, abundance of ozone precursor gases, high temperature and high rate of photo-oxidation of precursor gases due to solar flux are the causal factors for increased surface O<sub>3</sub> concentrations in pre-monsoon season. Reduced solar flux decreases photo-dissociation of ozone precursor gases resulting in low O<sub>3</sub> concentration during winter season. Occurrence of low surface O<sub>3</sub> during early morning hours in monsoon, post-monsoon and winter seasons is because of low ABLH and low stratosphere-troposphere exchange (STE).

Monthly aggregated footprints for each station were compared between the models for July and December 2020. The footprints revealed major source regions and the sensitivity of atmospheric mole fractions at the receptor to upstream surface fluxes. In July, both models showed similar major source regions for the AMY station, including Korea, the Yellow Sea, and Japan. However, a discrepancy was observed in the Eastern Pacific Ocean, with KIM-STILT showing larger sensitivity compared to WRF-STILT. In December, both models indicated strong sensitivity over Northeast and Eastern China, but KIM-STILT exhibited smaller sensitivities towards Northwestern China and Mongolia compared to WRF-STILT. At station ULD in July, both models exhibited comparable source regions, but a notable difference was found in Southeast China, where KIM-STILT showed stronger sensitivity. For the JGS station, both models agreed on major sources, but WRF-STILT demonstrated stronger sensitivity over North and Northeastern China. Regarding CO<sub>2</sub> enhancements, both models generally underestimated the amplitude of CO<sub>2</sub> enhancements, especially in July. However, in December, there was better agreement with observed data. The models were able to reproduce the phase of measured ΔCO<sub>2</sub> reasonably well despite the underestimation of CO<sub>2</sub> amplitudes.
