The reaction of methyl peroxy and hydroxyl radicals as a major source of atmospheric methanol

The high observed abundance of atmospheric methanol over remote oceans is still not well-explained. Here the authors use quantum calculations and atmospheric modelling to show the reaction of methyl peroxy and hydroxyl radicals is a major methanol source (115 Tg/yr), comparable to global terrestrial...

Sumario:The high observed abundance of atmospheric methanol over remote oceans is still not well-explained. Here the authors use quantum calculations and atmospheric modelling to show the reaction of methyl peroxy and hydroxyl radicals is a major methanol source (115 Tg/yr), comparable to global terrestrial emissions.
