However, reduced NOx may cause an increase in ozone levels in densely populated urban areas.[38] There is a critical gap in the literature in our understanding of the impact of urban conditions, specifically in the Kurdistan region of Iraq, and their correlation with the environmental impacts of COVID-19 lockdowns.	cache/cuesj-1153.pdf	txt/cuesj-1153.txt
