Fig. 4. Sample emission model for an evening acetaldehyde spike. Open circles are measured mixing ratio, crosses represent individual mixing ratios added by the assumption of a bell-shaped emissions surge (offset in time for clarity). The dashed line shows the result of those emissions without, and the solid line the modeled result with shed air dilution.
