Currently, many challenges are faced in simulating ozone(O-3), sulfate(SO42-), and nitrate(NO3-) concentrations over East Asia, particularly the overestimation of surface O-3 and NO3- concentrations and underestimation of the SO42- concentration during haze episodes. In this study, we examined the radiative and heterogeneous chemical effects of aerosols by incorporating recently reported mechanisms, including self-amplifying SO42- formation, dinitrogen pentoxide (N2O5) hydrolysis, and a heterogeneous reaction converting gaseous nitric acid (HNO3) to nitric oxide (NOx), into a Nested Air Quality Prediction Modeling System. Uptakes by aerosols can be computed through a simple parameterization that is dependent on the aerosol core and shell species, shell thickness, and amount of aerosol liquid water. In this study, a 1-year simulation was conducted for 2013. The updated model successfully reproduced the seasonal and daily observations of O-3, fine particulate matter, SO42-, and NO3- concentrations in East Asia. Our results revealed that heterogeneous reactions reduced more surface O-3 concentrations (10-20 ppbv) in the polluted regions of East China than did perturbations in photolysis frequencies from aerosols, effectively again improving the comparison between simulations and observations. Oxidation of SO2 by NO2 on wet aerosols significantly enhanced SO42- formation, with sulfate covering approximately similar to 30-60% of total sulfate concentrations in North China Plain during haze days in winter. The uptake of reactive nitrogen species on aerosols effectively reduced NO3- concentrations and successfully balanced the NOx/HNO3 chemistry in the models. We recommended that larger reductions of gaseous precursors should be considered in China to achieve the national air quality objective. The results show that surface O-3 concentrations over East China will increase if the emission of aerosols is reduced without corresponding reductions in O-3 precursors. (C) 2017 The Author(s).
