Harwell, Oxfordshire, UK - 2008; here we see a variety a of air sampling inlets at an automatic air quality monitoring station in Harwell, is part of the UK's extensive air quality monitoring networks. Sampling in a rural location like this might seem a bit unusual; however, it is targeted at photochemical pollutants, which tend to be more of a problem in areas downwind of urban and area sources. This site has, in fact, recorded some of the highest ozone levels ever seen in the UK.
