Sensitivities of the absorptive partitioning model of secondary organic aerosol formation to the inclusion of water

The predicted distribution of semi-volatile organic components between the gaseous and condensed phase as a function of ambient relative humidity and the specific form of the partitioning model used has been investigated. A mole fraction based model, modified so as not to use molar mass in the calcu...
