=== yield of isoprene nitrates ===
|-valign="top"
[mailto:paulot@caltech.edu Fabien Paulot] found a problem in current chemistry scheme.  In [[GEOS-Chem v8-02-01]] and beyond, isoprene nitrates are produced twice: one through channel A and one through 10% loss in channel B. This makes the loss of NOx larger than it should be (18.7% vs. 10%) and also reduces the yield of MVK/MACR/CH2O by about 13%.
