Adding hydrogen isotope (HD) to the GEOS-CHEM model 1.Model development based on measured ratios of HD/H 2 for various sources, sinks, and reservoirs 2.Will give additional constraint to the H 2 budget sources and sinks 3.Determine the contributions of sources and sinks to atmospheric D and interhemispheric gradient (Gerst & Quay, 2000, 2001)

GEOS-CHEM captures well the H 2 and D latitudinal gradient (H 2 ~40ppbv, D~40% o ) and seasonality. Soil Sink uncertainty: incorporate soil moisture, precipitation, to better constrain soil deposition Next, help explain the D observations of stratospheric enrichment (Röckmann et al., 2003; Rahn et al., 2003) Could D measurements be used to constrain Asian biofuel emissions?
