A persistent imbalance in HOx and NOx photochemistry of the upper troposphere driven by deep tropical convection
Open accessAbstract
Convection in the tropics turns over the upper troposphere at rates (0.08 d−1) comparable to photochemical processes controlling the absolute abundance of HO x (OH + HO 2) and the abundance of NO x (NO + NO 2) relative to HNO 3. Here we identify convection of boundary‐layer CH 3 OOH as a primary source of HO x to the upper troposphere. Turnover of NO x leads to NO/HNO 3 ratios much higher than predicted for local photochemical steady‐state. Through convective transport the upper troposphere is more photochemically active in producing O 3, an important greenhouse gas.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
