Short summary

We quantified the detailed impacts of meteorology and anthropogenic emissions on surface O₃ increase in central eastern China between 2003 and 2015 using GEOS-Chem. The emission change plays a more important role than the meteorological change, while the regions with a larger O₃ increase are more sensitive to meteorology. NMVOC emission change dominated the O₃ increase in eastern CEC, while NO_x emission change led to an O₃ increase in western and central CEC and O₃ decrease in urban areas.
