Modelling the impact of oxygenated VOC and meteorology upon the boundary layer photochemistry at the South Pole

Abstract A chemistry box model is used to explore implications of recent measurements of methyl hydroperoxide (MHP) across Antarctica and their influence upon high ozone events in the South Pole boundary layer. To reconcile, recent data models suggest that chemistry and meteorology play an important...
