Abstract

Evidence of interplay between the dynamics and chemical processes. Nighttime and morning chemistry plays important role in PM formation in upper layer or in remote areas. The mixing/turbulence during the day can disperse the PM rich air and distribute it uniformly throughout the aerosol/inversion layer. Vertical measurements of the species relevant to night and morning chemistry are needed to characterize these processes better.
