Abstract：In this study,we used the hourly ozone concentration data in Jiangsu Province in 2015 to analyze the variations of ground-level ozone and AOT 40(accumulated ozone exposure over a threshold of 40) during the winter wheat and rice growing seasons.Yield and economic losses of rice and winter wheat caused by O3 pollution were estimated by utilizing O3 exposure-response models.The results showed that:(1) The mean of ozone concentrations during the winter wheat and rice growing seasons were 80.1μg/m3 and 83.8μg/m3,respectively,and showed unimodal diurnal variations.Spatially,ozone concentration was higher in the northern Jiangsu and lower in the southern Jiangsu,and was lower in western Jiangsu,higher in eastern coastal areas.(2) The ozone AOT40 values during the winter wheat and rice growing seasons were 3.08~14.47μL/L·h and 10.79~21.67μL/L·h,respectively.(3) At the current ozone level,relative yield losses of winter wheat and rice were 23.9% and 16.5%,respectively.Crop production losses amounted to 3.687×106t for winter wheat and 3.858×106t for rice.The total economic cost losses in Jiangsu Province amounted to 87.01billion yuan for winter wheat and 106.48billion yuan for rice.Therefore,we need to take effective control measures to reduce agricultural losses under ozone pollution.
