Protocol for the development of the Master Chemical Mechanism, MCM v3 (Part A): tropospheric degradation of non-aromatic volatile organic compounds

TL;DR: In this paper, an update to the previous protocol is presented, which has been used to define degradation schemes for 107 non-aromatic VOC as part of version 3 of the Master Chemical Mechanism (MCM v3).
Journal ArticleDOI

A new mechanism for regional atmospheric chemistry modeling

TL;DR: The Regional Atmospheric Chemistry Mechanism (RACM) as discussed by the authors is a gas-phase chemical mechanism for the modeling of regional atmospheric chemistry, the mechanism is intended to be valid for remote to polluted conditions and from the Earth's surface through the upper troposphere.
Journal ArticleDOI

The tropospheric degradation of volatile organic compounds: a protocol for mechanism development

TL;DR: In this paper, a series of rules for the construction of detailed degradation schemes for use in numerical models of the boundary layer over Europe is presented. But, as a major disadvantage of explicit chemical mechanisms is the very large number of reactions potentially generated, if the rules are rigorously applied.

Formation of Organic Aerosols from the Oxidation of Biogenic Hydrocarbons

TL;DR: In this article, a gas/particle absorption model was used to simulate the evolution of aerosol formation during photooxidation of α-pinene and other cyclic monoterpenes.

Rate Constants for Reactions of Inorganic Radicals in Aqueous Solution

TL;DR: In this article, rate constants have been compiled for reactions of various inorganic radicals produced by radiolysis or photolysis, as well as by other chemical means in aqueous solutions.

Relationship between Absorption Intensity and Fluorescence Lifetime of Molecules

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors derived a modified 1/τ0=2.880×10−9n2/n2-1(gl/gu) ∫ edlnν, which should be valid for broad molecular bands when the transition is strongly allowed.

Hydrocarbon Bond Dissociation Energies

TL;DR: The best available values for homolytic bond dissociation energies (BDEs) of various classes of neutral compounds are considered in a review as mentioned in this paper, focusing on prototypical radicals whose heats of formation, formerly thought to be well in hand, have recently been called into serious question.

Tropospheric chemistry: A global perspective

TL;DR: A model for the photochemistry of the global troposphere constrained by observed concentrations of H2O, O3, CO, CH4, NO, NO2, and HNO3 is presented in this paper.

The influence of nitrogen oxides on the atmospheric ozone content

TL;DR: In this paper, the probable importance of NO and NO2 in controlling the ozone concentrations and production rates in the stratosphere is pointed out and some processes which may lead to production of nitric acid are discussed.
