abstract={Surface Ozone concentrations are valuable indicators of possible health and environmental impacts. Increasing concentration of Tropospheric ozone (O<SUB>3</SUB>) is a serious air pollution problem faced commonly by the urban people. In the present study ozone (O<SUB>3</SUB>), Oxides of Nitrogen (NO<SUB>x</SUB>) Carbon monoxide (CO) and Sulpher dioxide (SO<SUB>2</SUB>) data were collected for a period of one year (January 01, 2015 to December 31, 2015) at three ambient air quality monitoring stations (Gurgaon now Gurugram, Rohtak and Panchkula) in Haryana state in Northern India. The O<SUB>3</SUB>, NO<SUB>x</SUB> CO, and SO<SUB>2 </SUB>data were collected by Haryana State Pollution Control Board. The concentration of O<SUB>3</SUB> is correlated with the concentration of NO<SUB>x</SUB>, CO, and SO<SUB>2</SUB> in different meteorological seasons. The regression correlation analysis has been performed between NO<SUB>x</SUB>, CO, SO<SUB>2</SUB> and O<SUB>3</SUB> to investigate the relationship between them. It was found that the variation in concentration of NO<SUB>x</SUB>, CO and SO<SUB>2</SUB> influenced the changes in the concentration of O<SUB>3</SUB> in different seasons of the year. The investigation data showed that NO<SUB>x</SUB>, CO and SO<SUB>2</SUB> had the important influence on O<SUB>3</SUB> concentration variations in monsoon session (r<SUP>2</SUP><SUP> </SUP>= -0.256, -0.322, -0.137 for Gurgaon, r<SUP>2</SUP>= 0.997, -0.829 and 0.843 for Rohtak and r<SUP>2</SUP>= ¨C 0.854, -0.829 and 0.262 for Panchkula). The influence of SO<SUB>2</SUB> on O<SUB>3</SUB> concentration has been observed to be different from NO<SUB>x</SUB> and CO. O<SUB>3</SUB> and NO<SUB>x</SUB> were observed to be inversely related in most of the seasons (r2= 0.124, 0.389, -0.256 and -0.694 in Gurgaon, r<SUP>2</SUP> = -0.797, -0.819, 0.997 and -0.797 in Rohtak &amp; r<SUP>2</SUP>=0.971,-0.074, -0.854 &amp; 0.784 in Panchkula for spring, pre-monsoon, monsoon and post monsoon season respectively). The regression equations have been obtained which correlates O<SUB>3</SUB> with NO<SUB>x</SUB><SUB>,</SUB> CO and SO<SUB>2</SUB>.},
