Evaluation and Compaison of Different Daily Ozone Statistical Prediction Models for the Grand-Casablanca Area

International audience This work deals with the forecasting of daily tropospheric ozone episodes in the Grand-Casablanca area. We present a comparison of different statistical predictive models, derived from various methods. We fit them on observed data collected and validated by the National Direction of Meteorology of Morocco. Finally, we compare them in order to deliver recommendations on the real-time forecasting model to be adopted routinely to plan the daily ozone in the Grand-Casablanca area.
