A new model, BAMBO (Bristol's Atmospheric Marine Boundary layer mOdel), was developed in order to investigate the reaction between peroxy radicals (RO2) and the hydroxyl radical (OH) under typical marine boundary layer (MBL) conditions. The results of this work have shown that the inclusion of the title reaction has negligible effects on inorganic species and ozone but can have significant effects on predicted atmospheric mixing ratios of oxygenated volatile organic compounds (OVOCs), which are generally poorly represented in atmospheric models. This work highlights that the title reaction may be important to modelling trace gas composition in the MBL. However, thorough experimental and theoretical studies are needed to clarify many of the assumptions made. Copyright (C) 2009 Royal Meteorological Society
