Short summary

We present shipborne observations of NO, NO₂, O₃, HCHO, OH, HO₂, H₂O and the actinic flux obtained in the marine boundary layer (MBL) around the Arabian Peninsula during the summer 2017 AQABA ship campaign. NO_x (NO+NO₂) and O₃ observations clearly showed anthropogenic influence in the MBL around the Arabian Peninsula. The observations were also used to calculate net O₃ production in the MBL around the Arabian Peninsula, which was greatest over the northern Red Sea, Oman Gulf and Arabian Gulf.
