Exploring the vertical profile of atmospheric organic aerosol: comparing 17 aircraft field campaigns with a global model

The global organic aerosol (OA) budget is highly uncertain and past studies suggest that models substantially underestimate observed concentrations. Few of these studies have examined the vertical distribution of OA. Furthermore, many model-measurement comparisons have been performed with different...
