Long-Term Hourly Ozone Forecasting via Time–Frequency Analysis of ICEEMDAN-Decomposed Components: A 36-Hour Forecast for a Site in Beijing
Surface ozone is a pollutant linked to higher risks of cardiopulmonary diseases with long-term exposure. Timely forecasting of ozone levels helps authorities implement preventive measures to protect public health and safety. However, few studies have been able to reliably provide long-term hourly oz...

| description | Surface ozone is a pollutant linked to higher risks of cardiopulmonary diseases with long-term exposure. Timely forecasting of ozone levels helps authorities implement preventive measures to protect public health and safety. However, few studies have been able to reliably provide long-term hourly ozone forecasts due to the complexity of ozone’s diurnal variations. To address this issue, this study constructs a hybrid prediction model integrating improved complete ensemble empirical mode decomposition with adaptive noise (ICEEMDAN), bi-directional long short-term memory neural network (BiLSTM), and the persistence model to forecast the hourly ozone concentrations for the next continuous 36 h. The model is trained and tested at the Wanshouxigong site in Beijing. The ICEEMDAN method decomposes the ozone time series data to extract trends and obtain intrinsic mode functions (IMFs) and a residual (Res). Fourier period analysis is employed to elucidate the periodicity of the IMFs, which serves as the basis for selecting the prediction model (BiLSTM or persistence model) for different IMFs. Extensive experiments have shown that a hybrid model of ICEEMDAN, BiLSTM, and persistence model is able to achieve a good performance, with a prediction accuracy of R<sup>2</sup> = 0.86 and RMSE = 18.70 µg/m<sup>3</sup> for the 36th hour, outperforming other models. |
