Atmospheric models provide crucial advice on the current and future impacts of human activity on the atmosphere. This project hypothesizes the presence of a new class of chemical reactions that are unknown in atmospheric science and therefore missing from the best existing models. The reactions require both sunlight and air, and they behave differently to all other types of atmospheric reactions. This project aims to characterise these reactions in the lab, understand them with theory, and quantify their global impact through modelling. Expected benefits include new understanding of atmospheric chemistry, more accurate model predictions, and—as a result—better strategies for managing the impacts of human activity on the environment.

大气模型就当前和未来人类活动对大气的影响提供了至关重要的建议。这个项目假设存在一类新的化学反应，这些化学反应在大气科学中是未知的，因此在现有的最好的模型中是缺失的。这些反应既需要阳光也需要空气，它们的行为与所有其他类型的大气反应不同。这个项目的目的是在实验室中描述这些反应的特征，用理论来理解它们，并通过建模来量化它们的全球影响。预期的好处包括对大气化学的新理解，更准确的模型预测，以及--结果--管理人类活动对环境影响的更好战略。
