Quantifying the magnitude of a missing hydroxyl radical source in a tropical rainforest

Quantifying the magnitude of a missing hydroxyl radical source in a tropical rainforest

The lifetime of methane is controlled to a very large extent by the abundance of the OH radical. The tropics are a key region for methane removal, with oxidation in the lower tropical troposphere dominating the global methane removal budget (Bloss et al., 2005). In tropical forested environments whe...
