Measurements and model simulations of the photostationary state during the Mauna Loa Observatory Photochemistry Experiment: Implications for radical concentrations and ozone production and loss rates

TL;DR: In this article, the photostationary state ratio (PSTR) was evaluated for clear sky conditions at Mauna Loa, Hawaii during a one-month field study in the spring of 1988, and the results indicated peroxy radical mixing ratios near 60 pptv.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Deep Convective Clouds and Chemistry (DC3) Field Campaign

TL;DR: The Deep Convective Clouds and Chemistry (DC3) field experiment produced an exceptional dataset on thunderstorms, including their dynamical, physical, and electrical structures and their impact on the chemical composition of the troposphere as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Formaldehyde Distribution over North America: Implications for Satellite Retrievals of Formaldehyde Columns and Isoprene Emission

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used aircraft data collected over North America and the Atlantic to determine the local relationships between HCHO columns and VOC emissions, calculate AMFs for HCHO retrievals, assess the errors in deriving AMFs with a chemical transport model (GEOS-Chem), and draw conclusions regarding space-based mapping of VOC emission.
Journal ArticleDOI

Development of a tunable mid-IR difference frequency laser source for highly sensitive airborne trace gas detection.

TL;DR: The optical sensor architecture, performance characteristics of individual pump lasers and DFG, as well as its application to wavelength modulation spectroscopy employing an astigmatic Herriott multi-pass gas absorption cell are described.
