Extensive measurements of trace species and parameters that are important to the photochemical production and loss of ozone have been made at Mauna Loa during the Mauna Loa Observatory Photochemistry Experiment experiment. These measurements are used as inputs as well as constraints in a model study of the photochemical budgets of ozone and five other trace species (CH2O, CH3OOH, H2O2, NO, and NOx) that are closely coupled to the photochemical production and loss of ozone. The study shows that there are significant discrepancies in the photochemical budgets of these trace species in this region and suggests that some important uncertainties exist in our understanding of the odd hydrogen photochemical processes. ¿ American Geophysical Union 1992
