" (...) 2. San Francisco Bay Area
Flights in the San Francisco Bay area are complicated by low inversion levels usually caused by radiation inversion conditions. Oxidant and ozone pollutant concentrations are often much lower than in Los Angeles. Our data show that higher concentrations of pollutants are usually found in the eastern side of the bay due to prevailing winds and to industrial congestion. The Bay Area seems to show a higher level of total oxidant relative to ozone than does the Los Angeles area.
(Page 16)
A total oxidants profile (Figure 12) of the East Bay region and of the eastern Santa Clara Valley area was taken on September 15, 1971, during the first smog alert ever called in the Bay area. The higher total oxidants levels in Figure 12 provide a contrast to the more typical ozone values observed in the Southern Santa Clara Valley (Figure 13). These values are lower than those recorded in Southern California. Layering similar to the Los Angeles area was observed in the nearly isothermal, and therefore, unmixed layers. These layers remained in approximately the same area until late afternoon winds dissipated and mixed them. Two flights were undertaken in January 1972, on the west side of the bay on a relatively clean day, with mild winds and no inversion. Levels of NOx, total oxidant, and ozone remained very low, although NOx peaks were observed in the San Leandro area of the East Bay. The peak levels were 0.2 ppm, with typical readings of 0.08 ppm or less for that day. (...)"

Ozone, total oxidant, hydrocarbons, and nitrogen oxides, as well as several meteorological variables were objects of the measurements.
This article shows the state of the measurement art in 1972.
As there is tendency to a "post-democratic" (Colin Crouch) political order led by technocrats - or a "guided democracy" (Putin) or a "sovietized democracy" (David Graeber,
