Evaluating the performance of pyrogenic and biogenic emission inventories against one decade of space-based formaldehyde columns

A new one-decade (1997–2006) dataset of formaldehyde (HCHO) columns retrieved from GOME and SCIAMACHY is compared with HCHO columns simulated by an updated version of the IMAGES global chemical transport model. This model version includes an optimized chemical scheme with respect to HCHO production,...
