Research Abstract

For the improvement of secondary organic aerosol (SOA) models volatility basis set model and explicit model were developed. From comparison of these SOA models with observation and existing SOA models, we found that (1) volatility basis set model well reproduced the observed SOA, (2) aging process of semi-volatile organic compounds has critical contribution to SOA production, and (3) explicit model largely underestimated the observed SOA concentration, partly due to much smaller production of low-volatile products.
