Emily Fischer has updated the PAN simulation. The code has been merged with v9.02.h at this point, and a publication (Fischer et al., 2013) has been submitted to ACP.

Updates to Chemistry

1. I replaced the isoprene chemical mechanism with the Paulot scheme. This scheme has already been implemented into the standard code.

2. I added nighttime chemistry from reactions of organic peroxy radicals with NO3 following Stone et al. (2013). This may not be incorporated into the standard chemistry.

3. I updated the rate coefficients for the reactions of HO2 with the >C2 peroxy radicals to Equation (iv) in Saunders et al. (2003). These changes have been incorporated into the standard code.
