# Original hypothesis #325 **Title:** Ozone Peaks on a Schedule **Field:** — **Published in:** Volume XVI **Catalogue position:** 325 of 949 **Source slug:** `ozone-diurnal-gating` Quoted verbatim from the published catalogue. Nothing below this line has been edited. --- **title** Ozone Peaks on a Schedule **claim** Peak ozone depends on the ratio of precursor emission timing to the photochemical timescale, so the same daily emissions can produce different peaks. **mechanism** Photochemistry requires sunlight and precursors together; emissions released before dawn are processed differently from those released at midday. **prediction** Peak should track the timing ratio. **refute** Peak tracking total emission would remove the timing.
