Large uncertainties remain in our parameterization of th is warming\, in part due to a lack of knowledge about atmospheric lifetime s for the chromophores (the light absorbing structures in BrC molecules). An important removal pathway involves chemical transformations that fragme nt the chromophore\, thus removing its ability to absorb visible light. Ho wever\, the rates measured for this removal pathway in the laboratory are much shorter than what is observed in ambient measurements. There also can be different amounts of photo-resistant BrC\, which is a fraction of the mixture that does not rapidly bleach and therefore affects the practical l ifetime of the BrC. An important BrC source in the atmosphere is biomass b urning and the overall photochemical decay rates for these emissions are i mportant to quantify to improve our parameterizations for their radiative effects. In this talk\, I will be combining results from work in our lab\, along with a broader review of prior literature of photochemical bleachin g\, to evaluate gaps in our ability to predict the observed ambient remova l rates using laboratory measurements. By probing complex mixtures from re cent biomass burning experiments (e.g. FIREX samples)\, I will demonstrate that our current measured rates in the laboratory are overestimated and t hat a slower photolysis rate\, as well as a potential gas-phase oxidation rate\, should be included to better predict BrC lifetimes in the atmospher e.\n\n\n\n\n\n____________________________________________________________ ____________________\nMicrosoft Teams meeting\nJoin on your computer or mo bile app\nClick here to join the meeting\nOr call i n (audio only)\n+1 647-794-1609\,\,965419528# Canada\, Toronto\nPhone Conference ID: 965 419 528#\nFind a local nu mber | Reset PIN \nLearn More | Meeting options[log in to unmask]&messageId=0&la nguage=en-US>\n___________________________________________________________ _____________________\n\n UID:040000008200E00074C5B7101A82E00800000000A09BFE591CCBD701000000000000000 0100000007B64214A0CB91E44899E29B65C647DC1 SUMMARY;LANGUAGE=en-US:SOCAAR Seminar - Rachel O’Brien DTSTART;TZID=Eastern Standard Time:20211103T150000 DTEND;TZID=Eastern Standard Time:20211103T160000 CLASS:PUBLIC PRIORITY:5 DTSTAMP:20211027T143902Z TRANSP:OPAQUE STATUS:CONFIRMED SEQUENCE:0 LOCATION;LANGUAGE=en-US:Microsoft Teams Meeting X-MICROSOFT-CDO-APPT-SEQUENCE:0 X-MICROSOFT-CDO-OWNERAPPTID:1409001445 X-MICROSOFT-CDO-BUSYSTATUS:TENTATIVE X-MICROSOFT-CDO-INTENDEDSTATUS:BUSY X-MICROSOFT-CDO-ALLDAYEVENT:FALSE X-MICROSOFT-CDO-IMPORTANCE:1 X-MICROSOFT-CDO-INSTTYPE:0 X-MICROSOFT-SKYPETEAMSMEETINGURL:https://teams.microsoft.com/l/meetup-join/ 19%3ameeting_MjA4ZjM1OTItZmNiZC00Y2E3LWE5MzctMmY2ZWM4NGZkNjAx%40thread.v2/ 0?context=%7b%22Tid%22%3a%2278aac226-2f03-4b4d-9037-b46d56c55210%22%2c%22O id%22%3a%2276a2f469-c5cc-446a-8132-c4bf6f5856ed%22%7d X-MICROSOFT-SCHEDULINGSERVICEUPDATEURL:https://api.scheduler.teams.microsof t.com/teams/78aac226-2f03-4b4d-9037-b46d56c55210/76a2f469-c5cc-446a-8132-c 4bf6f5856ed/19_meeting_MjA4ZjM1OTItZmNiZC00Y2E3LWE5MzctMmY2ZWM4NGZkNjAx@th read.v2/0 X-MICROSOFT-SKYPETEAMSPROPERTIES:{"cid":"19:meeting_MjA4ZjM1OTItZmNiZC00Y2E [log in to unmask]"\,"private":true\,"type":0\,"mid":0\," rid":0\,"uid":null} X-MICROSOFT-ONLINEMEETINGCONFLINK:conf:sip:[log in to unmask]\;gru u\;opaque=app:conf:focus:id:teams:2:0!19:meeting_MjA4ZjM1OTItZmNiZC00Y2E3L WE5MzctMmY2ZWM4NGZkNjAx-thread.v2!76a2f469c5cc446a8132c4bf6f5856ed!78aac22 62f034b4d9037b46d56c55210 X-MICROSOFT-DONOTFORWARDMEETING:FALSE X-MICROSOFT-DISALLOW-COUNTER:FALSE X-MICROSOFT-LOCATIONS:[{"DisplayName":"Microsoft Teams Meeting"\,"LocationA nnotation":""\,"LocationUri":""\,"LocationStreet":""\,"LocationCity":""\," LocationState":""\,"LocationCountry":""\,"LocationPostalCode":""\,"Locatio nFullAddress":""}] BEGIN:VALARM DESCRIPTION:REMINDER TRIGGER;RELATED=START:-PT15M ACTION:DISPLAY END:VALARM END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
