TLDR
In this paper, the average scavenging from large precipitation bands or frontal systems where there is widespread weakly ascending air motion has been derived under a number of approximations and the wet removal coefficients are parametrized in terms of precipitation rate.

Atmospheric chemistry of peroxides: a review

TL;DR: Inorganic and organic peroxides have become the focus of increased attention by atmospheric chemists during the last decade as discussed by the authors, and they serve as an important link between gas phase radicals and aqueous phase chemistry in the atmosphere.

Tropospheric nitrogen: A three‐dimensional study of sources, distributions, and deposition

TL;DR: In this article, the Lagrangian tracer model is used to simulate the global cycle of reactive nitrogen in a three-dimensional model of chemistry, transport, and deposition, which includes the basic chemical reactions of NO, NO2, and HNO3.

Precipitation chemistry in and ionic loading to an Alpine Basin, Sierra Nevada

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors measured wet deposition of solutes to an alpine catchment in the southern Sierra Nevada from October 1984 through March 1988 and found that ammonium concentration was tenfold greater than H{sup +} in rainfall.

Acidic deposition to forests: The 1985 chemistry of high elevation fog (CHEF) project

TL;DR: The literature supporting significant water deposition directly from cloud and fog to the earth's surface is reviewed and previous aircraft and surface measurements of the acidity of this water are summarized as discussed by the authors, and an overview of recent work on forest decline is given and an American (Mountain Cloud Chemistry Project) and Canadian (Chemistry of High Elevation Fog) program to look at the chemical deposition by clouds to high elevation forests, is described.

Drivers of the tropospheric ozone budget throughout the 21st century under the medium-high climate scenario RCP 6.0

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present model simulations performed with the chemistry-climate model SOCOL, in which spatially disaggregated chemistry and transport tracers have been implemented in order to better understand the distribution and projected changes in tropospheric ozone.

On the distribution and continuity of water substance in atmospheric circulations

TL;DR: In this paper, the conservation and distribution of water substance in atmospheric circulations are considered within a frame of continuity principles, model air flows, and models of microphysical processes, where the simplest considerations of precipitation involve its vertical distribution in an updraft column, where condensate appears immediately as precipitation with uniform terminal fallspeed.

Fall speeds and masses of solid precipitation particles

TL;DR: In this paper, the fall speeds and masses of a large number of different types of solid precipitation particles were measured and the effects of riming and aggregation on the fall speed and mass were investigated.

The distribution with size of aggregate snowflakes

TL;DR: In this article, the sum of the sixth powers of the (melted) particle diameters in unit volume (Z), the mass of snow in unit volumes (M), and the precipitation rate (R) are found to be related by Z = 2000 R−2.0 and M = 250 R−0.90; combining these two gives Z = 9.57 × 10−3 M−2, with Z in mm6 m−3, M in mgm m− 3 and R in mm hr−1 of water.

Doppler Radar Observations of Drop-Size Distributions in a Thunderstorm

TL;DR: In this article, the size distribution of raindrops at heights below the 0C level was computed using the updraft UR deduced by Rogers' method and two other updrafts, namely UR − 1 and UR + 1 m sec−1.
