Photochemical grid models are addressing an increasing variety of air quality related issues,
yet procedures and metrics used to evaluate their performance remain inconsistent. This …

Atmospheric oxidation of isoprene, the most abundantly emitted non-methane hydrocarbon,
affects the abundances of ozone (O 3), the hydroxyl radical (OH), nitrogen oxide radicals …

We implement a new isoprene oxidation mechanism in a global 3‐D chemical transport
