Short summary

Tropical cyclones (TCs) have a significant impact on ozone in coastal areas by affecting atmospheric circulation and meteorological conditions. We have studied the impact and future trends of climate change in the Yangtze River Delta region and found that the intensification of climate change will exacerbate the impact of TCs on O₃ in the Yangtze River Delta, requiring strengthened monitoring and early warning.
