Can a “state of the art” chemistry transport model simulate Amazonian tropospheric chemistry?
[1] We present an evaluation of a nested high‐resolution Goddard Earth Observing System (GEOS)‐Chem chemistry transport model simulation of tropospheric chemistry over tropical South America. The model has been constrained with two isoprene emission inventories: (1) the canopy‐scale Model of Emissions of Gases and Aerosols from Nature (MEGAN) and (2) a leaf‐scale algorithm coupled to the Lund‐P...
متن کاملThe global chemistry transport model TM5: description and evaluation of the tropospheric chemistry version 3.0
We present a comprehensive description and benchmark evaluation of the tropospheric chemistry version of the global chemistry transport model TM5 (Tracer Model 5, version TM5-chem-v3.0). A full description is given concerning the photochemical mechanism, the interaction with aerosol, the treatment of the stratosphere, the wet and dry deposition parameterizations, and the applied emissions. We e...
متن کاملTropospheric Chemistry and Composition
The troposphere, the region of the Earth’s atmosphere in which we live and breath, is composed of many different kinds of gases. These components range from the abundant two-atom molecules O2 and N2, to larger and more reactive chemicals, which include vast numbers of different volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Concentrations of VOCs can be as high as one part per million by volume (10 , or pp...
متن کاملSimulation of upper tropospheric CO2 from chemistry and transport models
[1] The California Institute of Technology/Jet Propulsion Laboratory two-dimensional (2-D), three-dimensional (3-D) GEOS-Chem, and 3-D MOZART-2 chemistry and transport models (CTMs), driven respectively by NCEP2, GEOS-4, and NCEP1 reanalysis data, have been used to simulate upper tropospheric CO2 from 2000 to 2004. Model results of CO2 mixing ratios agree well with monthly mean aircraft observa...
متن کاملStability of tropospheric hydroxyl chemistry
[1] Tropospheric hydroxyl (OH) is the cleaning agent of the atmosphere, because most oxidation processes are initiated by OH. If the OH chemical system were unstable, runaway growth of oxidants (autocatalytic conditions) or of reduced gases (catastrophic conditions) might occur, especially because the atmospheric composition is changing rapidly. We present simulations with a global chemistry-tr...
