Atmospheric particles are important reaction vessels for multiphase chemistry. We conducted a meta-analysis of previous field observations in various environments (includes ocean, urban and rural regions), showing that particle hygroscopicity inhomogeneity (PHI) is ubiquitous for the continental atmospheric particles, in which a considerable part of the particulate matters is hydrophobic (10%–33% on average). However, the effects of PHI in quantifying the uptake process of reactive gases are still unclear. Here, taking N2O5uptake as an example, we showed that using a laboratory-based parameterization scheme without considering the PHI might result in a misestimation of uptake rate coefficient, especially under low ambient relative humidity (RH). Such misestimation may be caused by the differences of the uptake coefficients, as well as the proportion of surface area concentration (SA) between hydrophilic and hydrophobic particles. We suggested that the PHI should be well-considered in establishing the reactive traces gases heterogeneous uptake parameterizations.
