Abstract
The LES model was used to examine the effects of fair-weather cumuli, turbulence dynamics, and aqueous-phase chemistry on the segregation of isoprene and OH. The chemical process was calculated as the residual in the covariance budget equation. It was observed that when gas and aqueous phase chemical reactions were included, the segregation of isoprene and OH was greater reaching 40 percent in the cloud layer. It was suggested that the LES code developed can be utilized to understand and parameterize the effect of shallow cumulus clouds on the transport of chemical species, chemical reactivity, and radiation processes.
