University of Alaska Fairbanks Revisiting the organic aerosol in southeast US Yiqi Zheng, Jingqiu Mao University of Alaska Fairbanks May 9th, 2019 The 9th International GEOS-Chem Meeting Harvard University, Cambridge, MA Coauthors: Joel Thornton (U.

Gas-Aerosol partitioning Aqueous-phase reactive uptake Anthropogenic influence on BSOA formation GEOS-Chem v12.1.0 … Gas-phase Products Gas-Aerosol partitioning +HO2 “dry” +OH, O3 RO2 Volatility Basis Set (VBS) [Pye et al. 2010] ISOP MTP +NO Aqueous-phase reactive uptake “wet” +NO3 6 ISOP-SOA species [Marais et al. 2016] Sulfate: k = -0.68 µg/m3/yr OA: k = -0.18 µg/m3/yr IMPROVE Observation OA = 2.2 × OC Jun-Jul-Aug Southeast US NOx SO2

Model overestimates the 10-yr OA trend and the ISOP contribution GEOS-Chem v12.1.0, 2°×2.5°, SEUS, JJA-average Units of trend (k): µg/m3/year model: k = -0.51 obs: k = -0.18 POA, OPOA and Anthropogenic SOA MTP-SOA (VBS) ISOP-SOA (VBS) ISOP-SOA (aq) IEPOX Fraction in total OA (%) GC v12.1.0 Zhang et al., 2018 Xu et al., 2018 ISOP-SOA 58 13 21-36 MTP-SOA 22 42 > 19-34

Large month-to-month variation in 2005-2007 IMPROVE OA [µg/m3] Model OA (default) [µg/m3] Large J-J-A variation in 2005-2007 dominated by IEPOX-SOA 2004 2006 2008 2010 2012 2014

Large month-to-month variation due to aerosol acidity [H+] IMPROVE OA [µg/m3] ISOPemis [mg/m2/hr] Model SO4 [µg/m3] Model H+ [mol/L] Model Model OA (default) [µg/m3]

High [H+] in Aug 2005-2007 due to insufficient NH3 IMPROVE OA [µg/m3] ISOPemis [mg/m2/hr] Model SO4 [µg/m3] Model H+ [mol/L] Model Model OA (default) [µg/m3] NH3_emis [x108 kg]

High [H+] in Aug 2005-2007 due to insufficient NH3 IMPROVE OA [µg/m3] NH3-limited SO4-limited Model Model OA (default) [µg/m3] IEPOX-SOA vs NH3 2005-2007 r2 = 0.87 (-) 2008-2014 r2 = 0.26 (-)

Large month-to-month variation in 2005-2007 IMPROVE OA [µg/m3] Why the model-obs. difference? IEPOX-SOA too sensitive to [H+] [H+] too high Overestimate IEPOX-SOA Model Development Coating effect for IEPOX uptake Fixed [H+] Update MTP-chemistry (future work) High aerosol acidity [H+] (in an NH3-limited regime) Model OA (default) [µg/m3] High IEPOX-SOA

Coating: reducing 𝛾IEPOX and 𝛾IEPOX sensitivity to [H+] Acid-catalyzed SO4_NIT_NH4 Model – Default 𝛾IEPOX = Function (H+, …) Rate = Function (𝛾IEPOX , Asulfate) Model – Coating 𝛾new = 𝛾IEPOX * ( 1 – 1.3 * 𝒳org ) Rate = Function (𝛾new , Asulfate+org) Fitted based on [Gaston et al., 2014]. 2005 2014 𝛾IEPOX (reaction probability) 𝒳org (organic mass fraction) the fraction of IEPOX collisions with aerosol surfaces resulting in reaction. Modeled [H+] and 𝒳org Observed 𝒳org and assuming [H+]=0.1 mol/L (2013 SOAS campaign data)

Model development: coating effect Model H+ [mol/L] Model – Default 𝛾IEPOX = Function (H+, …) Rate = Function (𝛾IEPOX , Asulfate) Model – Coating 𝛾new = 𝛾IEPOX * ( 1 – 1.3 * 𝒳org ) Rate = Function (𝛾new , Asulfate+org) Model – Coating_fixedH 𝛾IEPOX = Function (H+=0.1 mol/L, …) SOAS data Trend of acidity Current model: decrease in acidity [Weber et al. 2016]: remain unchanged [Silvern et al. 2017]: increase in acidity

Adding coating effect improves model performance Month: JJA Default: k = -0.51 Observation: k = -0.18 Units: µg/m3/year Coating: k = -0.42 Coating_fixedH: k = -0.27

Adding coating effect improves model performance Model OA (default) Model OA (coating) Model OA (coating_fixedH) Observed OA

Summary & Future work Current model overestimates the 10-year OA trend (high IEPOX-SOA and acidity in Aug 2005-2007). Coating effect for IEPOX uptake & fixed [H+] improves model performance. Underestimation of MTP-SOA? Current scheme: [Marais et al., 2016] [Fisher et al., 2016] Issues to resolve: Loss of mass; lack of observational constraint; double counting with VBS. MTP-chemistry will be updated in collaboration with Prof. Sally Ng’s group.
