A Review of Approaches for Marine Isoprene Emissions 10/24/2015Air Resources Laboratory4  Shaw et al. (2003):  Palmer & Shaw (2005):  Gantt et al. (2009): E iso - Isoprene emission; [Chl-a] - Isoprene emission; V – euphotic water volume; EF – Emission factor; k AS – exchange coeff.; C W – isop. conc. in water H – Henry’s law constant; C A – isop. conc. in the air P – isoprene production; H max – euphotic zone height; Z ML – mixing layer height; k i – chemical reaction rate for oxidant i; k bio – bacterial loss rate; L MIX – loss due to downward mixing;

Concluding Remarks 10/24/2015Air Resources Laboratory17  Methods to estimate near real-time emissions from two additional natural sources: volcano and marine phytoplankton.  Due to its unique emission pattern and reliable measurements, SO 2 emissions from Kilauea volcano can be incorporated into the NAQFC system;  In comparison, marine phytoplankton emissions are more challenging to estimate due to both input data quality and lack of knowledge on how to deal with these uncertainties.
