Concurrent tropospheric O3 and CO vertical profiles from the Tropospheric Emission Spectrometer (TES) during the MILAGRO/INTEX-B aircraft campaigns over the Mexico City Metropolitan Area (MCMA) allow us to characterize mega-city pollution. Outflow from the MCMA occurred predominantly at 600–800 hPa, evident in O3 , CO, and NOx enhancements in the in situ observations. We examined O3 , CO, and their correlation at 600–800 hPa from TES retrievals, aircraft measurements, and GEOS-Chem model results over the aircraft coverage (within a radius of ~700 km around MCMA). The enhancements in O3 and CO seen in the in situ measurements are not apparent in TES data, due to the lack of TES coverage during several strong pollution events. However, TES O3 and CO data are consistent with the aircraft observations on a daily mean basis (50–60 ppbv and 100–130 ppbv for O3 and CO respectively). The O3 -CO correlation coefficients and enhancement ratios (ΔO3 /ΔCO) derived from TES data are in good agreements with those derived from the aircraft observations and GEOS-Chem model results (r : 0.5–0.9; ΔO3 /ΔCO: 0.3–0.4), reflecting significant springtime photochemical production over MCMA and the surrounding region.
