Influence of photochemical loss of volatile organic compounds on understanding ozone formation mechanism [PDF]
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) tend to be consumed by atmospheric oxidants, resulting in substantial photochemical loss during transport. An observation-based model was used to evaluate the influence of photochemical loss of VOCs on the sensitivity ...
