Technical Note: Simulation of detailed aerosol chemistry on the global scale using MECCA-AERO

We present the MESSy submodel MECCA-AERO, which simulates both aerosol and gas phase chemistry within one comprehensive mechanism. Including the aerosol phase into the chemistry mechanism increases the stiffness of the resulting set of differential equations. The numerical aspects of the approach fo...
