2 1. Multiphase chemistry (Stelios) 2. Interannual model evaluation & AEROCOM (Nikos) 3. Other ongoing and future activities (Maria)

3 SOA formation via aqueous-phase chemistry in TM4-ECPL Myriokefalitakis et al, ACPD, 11,485, VOC photo-oxidation in the gas-phase 2. Production of water-soluble organic compounds in the gas-phase (e.g. aldehydes, organic acids) 3. Phase transfer between the gas and the aqueous phase 4. Production of low volatile compounds in the aqueous-phase (e.g. oxalic acid) 5. Upon cloud evaporation new organic particulate matter is formed OH VOC O 3 R-CHO Henry NO 3

4 The Revised Aqueous-Phase Chemical Scheme in TM4- ECPL 1. NO 3 Aqueous-phase Oxidation of Aldehydes and Organic Acids 2. Lower Henry Constant of OH radicals ( mol lt -1 atm -1 -> 30 mol lt -1 atm -1 ) 3. Different cloud droplet radius over land (5 μm) and over oceans (10 μm) 4. Simultaneously S(IV) and Organic molecules aqueous-phase oxidation using EBI solver

5 ph Dependence of S(IV) oxidation by ozone TM4-ECPL does not take into account the different forms of the sulfuric acid (SO 2.H 2 O, HSO 3-, SO 3-2 )., in order to take into account the different forms and reaction rates, we use the mole fraction (ξ) of each acid as a function of ph. The total mass of S(IV) is calculated as S(IV)=SO 2.H 2 O + HSO 3- + SO SO.
