Interactive comment on “ simpleGAMMA – a reduced model of secondary organic aerosol formation in the aqueous aerosol phase ( aaSOA ) ”
The authors present a reduced version of their previously published GAMMA model (Gas-Aerosol-Model for Mechanism Analysis) that targets secondary organic aerosol (SOA) formation in aerosol water. The current study presents a reduced version of the model to be implemented in regional and global models that cannot include as much detail as the full GAMMA. SOA formation in the aqueous phase is not...
متن کاملA Coupled Hydrophobic-Hydrophilic Model for Predicting Secondary Organic Aerosol Formation
The formation of secondary organic aerosol (SOA) results from the absorption of gasphase organic oxidation products by airborne aerosol. Historically, modeling the formation of SOA has relied on relatively crude estimates of the capability of given parent hydrocarbons to form SOA. In more recent work, surrogate organic oxidation products have been separated into two groups, hydrophobic and hydr...
متن کاملDevelopment and initial evaluation of a dynamic species-resolved model for gas phase chemistry and size-resolved gas/particle partitioning associated with secondary organic aerosol formation
[1] A module for predicting the dynamic evolution of the gas phase species and the aerosol size and composition distribution during formation of secondary organic aerosol (SOA) is presented. The module is based on the inorganic gas-aerosol equilibrium model Simulating the Composition of Atmospheric Particles at Equilibrium 2 (SCAPE2) and updated versions of the lumped Caltech Atmospheric Chemis...
متن کاملAqueous aerosol SOA formation: impact on aerosol physical properties.
Organic chemistry in aerosol water has recently been recognized as a potentially important source of secondary organic aerosol (SOA) material. This SOA material may be surface-active, therefore potentially affecting aerosol heterogeneous activity, ice nucleation, and CCN activity. Aqueous aerosol chemistry has also been shown to be a potential source of light-absorbing products ("brown carbon")...
متن کاملSecondary organic aerosol 2. Thermodynamic model for gas/particle partitioning of molecular constituents
[1] A model that predicts secondary organic aerosol (SOA) formation based on the thermodynamic equilibrium partitioning of secondary organic oxidation products has been developed for implementation into atmospheric models. Hydrophobic secondary products are assumed to partition to an absorbing organic aerosol consisting of primary organic aerosol (POA) and other secondary hydrophobic organics a...
