Analysis of the ground level ozone concentration is vital for the purpose of forecasting and in identifying the changes and impacts that are very crucial for an agro-based economy like the capital city of Tamil Nadu. Six months data of Ground level Ozone concentration of south Chennai is used to determine the Hurst exponent. The objective of this study is to analyse the behaviour of Ground level ozone concentration of metropolitan city of Tamil Nadu using fractal dimension. The Hurst Exponent (H) is a statistical measure used to classify time series. It is found that the behaviour of ground level ozone concentration in south Chennai is Random series, since the value of Hurst Exponent and Fractal dimension is 0.516 and 1.484.
